So far whenever we have been camping usually its been the in the South / South West or Wales, I would like to try the other side of the country Norfolk, Suffolk even maybe Lincolnshire any suggestions please, below is our list of PRIORITIES

Facilities ( Toilets / Shower Blocks ) can put up with most things but must have clean quality toilet / shower facilities
Reasonably Quiet preferably with not too many pitches
Decent Size Pitches ( Preferably Level )
Swimming Pool ( Indoor )

So far we have gone to sites that have appealed to us and then read up the reviews etc and I am please to say we have not been disappointed yet so your suggestions are very useful.

OK i can recomend Havens wild duck site near great yarmouth.The site is just outside the town but just a short drive to beach etc.The touring field is set in trees and is far enough away that you cant hear the club at night.Its a very nice clean tidy site and its quite well priced for the amenities on site.

Might not be what your looking for but the thought crossed my mind and i thought id share it with you as we really enjoyed ourselves there.

Searles if you don't mind North Norfolk!

My kids love it

Vuaxhall was ok but size of pitches was too small.  Swimming pool was great

You could try Kelling Heath, we love it, it has an indoor pool, facilites are good, lovely walks thru the heathland/woodlands.Your can get supersize pitches but you will have to pay extra, we've always found the standard pitches to be big enough for our 7.5x6m tent.

Do you have children? If not then Staverton, Woodbridge, Suffolk, see campsite reviews on here. It's very quiet, a real getaway surrounded by woods. Spotless toilets and showers, washing up and laundry facilities, EHU and water taps conveniently placed. Lovely area of the Heritage Coast. No pool though.

Another Big Up for Searles, despite being a big site it manages to retain a very personal and friendly atmosphere and is a 2 minute walk from the beach.  Hunstanton is positioned well for exploring the North Norfolk coast which is lovely.  Also showers with underfloor heating and piped music! - immaculate to boot.

Also the indoor pool at Searles is free whereas Kelling Heath charge zillions extra to use theirs (they charge for absolutely everything at Kelling Heath, apart from the cold showers!)

Another vote for Kelling Heath, unfortunately it can be a bit pricey having to pay extra, we have never tried Searles (apart for Fish & Chips) but like Kelling because although it is quite a big site it doesn't feel like a big site in the same way as Forest Park (Cromer) or Pinewoods at Wells, I don't think Pinewoods really meets your criteria (no pool, toilets a bit ?) but it is another site we love - have just spent bank holiday there - probably the best beach in Norfolk right on your doorstep (sorry, tent step)

Searles would get our vote too.

Been going for years for weekends and the odd week,

Everything you need from a large site with the friendliness & feel of a family owned site which is cared for.
