What customers say
Top-notch, spotless facilities (including modern showers!) and spacious, well-organised pitches. Friendly staff and great food at Barney's Bar. Adults-only zone is a winner. Location's a ripper for exploring North Norfolk, though facilities can get a bit busy and some noise from neighbours.

Powered grass tent site
Liked Mostly everything. It was a nice clean site with great showers and toilets. Staff where really friendly and food at Little Barney's was amazing. Also loved the fact we weren't allocated a with for our tent so we could choose which one we wanted.
Disliked The tent electric pitches were layed out weird and they could do with being marked out abit better

Overall a great site and would recommend
Powered concrete slab caravan site (adults only)
Liked Beautifully kept site. Shower block very clean and well maintained.
Staff consistently emptying bins
Disliked Our only dislike was the gravel pitch was very hard to put pegs in so we had to buy new rock pegs and borrow a metal mallet from someone else who said everyone was borrowing it. Maybe a warning on site to alert people to this beforehand. We have a footprint groundsheet plus carpet and it was very sharp underfoot when not wearing shoes.

It has everything you'd need but noisy and crowded during peak times
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked The facilities were lovely! They were clean and modern. The bar was well stoked, the shop had everything you'd need. Staff were friendly and helpful. It was easy to find and well situated for attractions.
Disliked Pre-ordered food from the pub onside before we arrived on the suggestion of the venue. The menu online only showed burgers so that's what we ordered. On arrival we relalised there were more options that weren't online. The menu needs tk be updated.
The campsite was very crowded. We struggled to find a view that didn't look directly at someone else tent.

A lovely place to stay in a great location!
Wensum 2 bedroom cottage / chalet / bungalow
Liked Nice spacious, private cottage with good outside space. Had everything we needed, well equipped. Beds very comfortable and everything spotless. Added bonus was Barney’s Bar which supplies tasty food and the onsite shop for the basics.
Disliked Only thing was that there was an occasional smell in the bathroom, probably due to the cesspit which was not very pleasant.

Overall great stay
Powered concrete slab caravan site (adults only)
Liked Beautiful site. Clean and well looked after. Good facilities.
Disliked Toilets limited to two in the block so limited during busy times. Ran out of loo paper regularly so caught short few times!

Loverly site, well maintained and spotless.…
Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (super, adults only)
Liked Loverly site, well maintained and spotless. Both shower blocks very clean and lovely hot water. Very strict with arrival and departure time, but understandable because of the narrow lane, we had no problems. We stayed on the adult pitches that are very big, plenty of room for caravan, awning, car. Nice and quiet. We did enjoy ourselves 😁👍🏻
Disliked But.....the only thing that spoiled it for us was I think we was only pitch that had a overhanging oak tree which resulted in acorns dropping usually on a night which sounded like a war zone, 3 nights of broken sleep. Reception were really understanding and kind (we did have a giggle about the acorn saga ). You can't help nature I get that and there was no where else for us to pitch so we unhooked everything and moved forward and down very lucky the pitches were so big and it made it alot better. Should have done it after first night 🤷♂️note to self...look up when pitching 😁👍🏻 note to owners...maybe look at pruning in the winter 😁👍🏻 still enjoyed ourselves 👍🏻

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Lovely site, really scenic and great facilities. Pond for fishing, bar, shop and food van give lots of options. Showers really up to date, and clean. There are showers in the toilet area and also self individual self contained ones with lots of space.
Disliked It could be noisy, depending on who your neighbouring campers were. Was quiet by about 12.30.
