Camp Holkham

A aimé First time visiting this pop up campsite, superb to be in Holkham estate after the day visitors have left, only crowds are deer and geese, and the Adnams beer truck is a delightful addition! Great pop up facilities (temporary loos, showers, washing up point, waste disposal including chemical toilet).
And a short bike ride or decent walk off road into Wells.
Already looking forward to next year!

A aimé The estate is absolutely beautiful and this is the second time we had come back to stay

N'a pas aimé We were pitched near a large group of woman who non stop shouted and drank and it completely ruined our stay we didn’t get a moments peace. Super disappointed as really wanted a relaxing break and I really wish groups who just want to get drunk would be discouraged from booking here.

Other note would be the dog poo bin near the site was overflowing and dog poo bags piled high on the ground next to it was pretty gross.

The loudness of the group has made us think twice about coming back next year. Perhaps pitches could be a bit bigger and flexibility to move if there is a drunk group to move to a quieter space.

A aimé Amazing staff/stewards. So kind and attentive

N'a pas aimé Absolutely no fault of the camp and part of British camping but we had a LOT of ants in our living pod. Again wouldnt put me off coming again but would bring some powder

A aimé Lovely estate, plenty of walks, space

N'a pas aimé Unfortunately had very noisy people next to us, noise until late then their children started again at 6 in the morning, no thought for others. But nothing to do with owners so will go again.

A aimé Lots of things you can do with the kids around there
Pop up beer and chicken vans at weekend
Street food

N'a pas aimé Washing up facilities are not enough as you have to wait in a queue but this is only for feedback as hopefully they will find ways to set up more sinks however this won’t put me off to go back

A aimé Being on the Holkham estate with the cycle hire, walled garden and lovely walks. Seeing the large herd of dear with their fauns outside the the camping ground. The proximity to Wells- next - the Sea and Holkham beach.

N'a pas aimé No large sinks to wash and clean ones teeth.

A aimé Great site in a great location, pitch was level, site staff very friendly and helpful, the showers and toilets are kept very clean though out the day and nights could not fault them at all ,showers and toilets are super modern to be honest better than a lot of other sites with static facilities, showers are hot and powerful toilets are great, hook up are position well, the setting with in the grounds of the hall is great, short 5min walk to the hall where you can hire bikes for a few hours or the day they have a good selection including kids and electric bikes, there is also a cafe there and other activities to do, would definitely recommend this site for a pop up campsite it’s unbelievable great

A aimé Location is perfect for both Holkham beach and Wells-Next-The-Sea, wardens were super helpful, cleanliness of facilities. Deer park was beautiful and the atmosphere was great as was the beer bus which had reasonably priced tipples, however ……

N'a pas aimé The Cost (very expensive at £50 per night) and additional unadvertised £5 charge from the Pinewoods holiday park over and above the Pitchup costs were very welcome to say the least. At £55 a night that’s nearly double the cost of comparable sites on the Suffolk coast. The tone of the Pinewood email sounded like a “demand for payment” stating payment was overdue - which it definitely wasn’t as we didn’t event know about it and hadn’t been asked to pay! Their policy of not allowing pup tents was also farcical as we were forced to take a large heavy awning rather than a small two person tent which we then didn’t attach to our camper. To have the pup tent would require a further 11m x 11m pitch and at £110 per night is astronomical for a campsite fee!
Would have been good to have a standpipe nearer to the vans/tents as it was was quite a hike which to be fair was alluded to in the site notes (recommending fill potable water tanks) but not explicitly stated.
Men’s bathrooms had spotless porcelain but only had a single very small basin and the floor was pretty wet which in a toilet cabin is never good. Not quite as good when compared with “bog-standard”!! latitude festival facilities we experienced a few weeks earlier.
Would stay again but only in a family group to get value for money.
