Gostou: Level pitches with plenty of space, toilet block was clean and the site was in a good location for exploring Norfolk

Não gostou: There is supposedly a noise curfew but most campers werent aware of this and played loud music/talked loudly well into the night. The pitches are very close to each other so we ended up with a family blasting loud, very explicit music right behind us which felt particularly inappropriate for a family campsite (not the site's fault per se, but reminding campers of the family nature of the site would have been good, as qould enforcing the time limit on loud music). The showers absolutely stank and the water had a sulphurous smell to it, to the point where I smelled worse coming out of the shower than going in. There was one day where there was only one toilet roll between the 6 womens toilet cubicles. The road within the site was so poorly maintained and full of enormous potholes that I now have to take my car to the garage to fix the rattling noise that started while driving onto the site!

Gostou: The whole place had such a lovely vibe to it, the bar/cafe was well priced and served a good range of drinks. The toilets were very clean and good facilities. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be coming back. Street food van on the Saturday was delicious.

Não gostou: I don’t have a bad word to say about the campsite at all

Gostou: Generous pitch sizes and plenty of outdoor space to explore. The play area included for children was a great space. Shower and toilet block again spacious and reasonably clean, (the weather we had we expected some dirt). The cafe was a lovely space and those running the site were all very friendly, polite and helpful. It was a quiet site very much suited for us. The facilities for water were well spread and flowed well too compared to other sites we have been on.

Não gostou: Occasionally there could be a strong odour in the shower block. Only when you pull out of the site is there large pot holes which made great fun for puddle jumpers but not so nice for bikes or cars going through. Also would have been nice to have a little shop for necessities and a laundry room. On occasions we did encounter cold showers, but generally they were hot.

Gostou: When I arrived there was no one to greet me and the signage was lacking. I wasn’t completely sure which way to go which isn’t great when towing on unknown roads. I couldn’t get through to anyone on the phone number on the hut and the access roads are very rutty. I travelled with another party and luckily they were met only minutes behind me so after a loop (the wrong way round the one-way system/poor signage) we were shown to our pitch. The pitches were not numbered so although we were pointed in the right direction it was pot luck where we were actually meant to be. The pitches at the bottom are uneven but correctable with ramps. I the ground was surprisingly good considering the amount of rain we had leading up to my visit. We did get a surprise fate turn up on the Sunday on part of the site. I would have expected this information to be given over at the time of booking. It didn’t bother me but could do for some. All of this said, I would return. The facilities were really good - couldn’t fault them. The bar/cafe by the lake is awesome on a sunny evening and even during the day. It’s a large site with many campers but everyone was quiet by 10. I didn’t venture off site so not sure what is around that area but the bar/cafe seemed to attract many off site visitors from cyclists to dog walkers and many others.

Gostou: There was a market on during out stay which was lovely to walk around. The bar area is lovely. Very picturesque site. This is mine and my husband's second stay and we will be staying again next yet

Não gostou: The road is quite bumpy on the way out. One of my showers during my stay was ice cold (was around 5pm), the rest of the time they were hot.
