Date of Visit: August 2010 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Jonycoupster 6 reviews from this member

 Lovely site with excellent, clean and well maintained facilities. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. All the pitches were level although I felt a little too close to each other on the rally field but it was August and only a very minor criticism. The nicest surprise was the lovely outdoor pool was heated so despite not the hottest of weeks our children managed to swim every day.

The surrounding area is very nice but I would recommend to avoid Scratby beach which was not the nicest. We visited Sea Palling which was a beautiful sandy beach and only a 15 minute drive North although Winterton beach is much closer but not quite as nice. Southwold was also an excellent place to visit and only 45 minutes away.

There is a well stocked shop on site and laundry facilities. An excellent pizza shop in nearby Helmsby which delivers to the site if you (like us) couldn't be bothered to cook one night. The Bridge Inn in Acle is great food and child friendly.

I would avoid Great Yarmouth at all costs both to visit and to drive through!

Great site in a good location!

 Just back from an 8 night stay and can say without a doubt that this is a very well looked after site. Very clean and tidy. The ground is flat and drains very well (rained most of the time we were there). Also the ground was a bit on the hard side (bent a few pegs and were a bugger to get out).

The shower and toilets were clean. Two small quibles about them; 1. Hand dryer was on its last legs. 2. Showers don't stay on long enough with the push button system. The shop is well stocked. Needed a few essentials whilst I was there

As always their are a certain minority that think rules don't apply to them and that child supervision isn't on the list of priorities for certain families. I suppose the site could benefit from a warden. Still I enjoyed my stay there and would like to visit again.

 Have just come back from a week at this site and would recommend it to all

The site was very clean and staff very friendly and helpful at all times there was someone there to help if needed the swimming pool was also attended by a life guard all times it was open

Shower and toilet blocks were clean and warm

Childrens play area was also good

The shop had all that you needed even down to dog chews and extras prices were very reasonable over all we would give ten out of ten we will be going there again

 Just got back from a week's stay at Scratby Hall.

This site must be amongst our top 5 ever! Lovely quiet sheltered location, level pitches, loads of toilets & showers which were cleaned daily (bit disappointed with the behaviour of some of our fellow campers who didn't get the 'leave it as you'd wish to find it' idea), little shop for food, camping essentials & other stuff. Lovely staff, well-organised and sensible rules like 'dogs on a lead.' Marked pitches so you know how much room you've got!

Not sure how it would drain if it did ever rain?

And don't take anything yellow or lime-green with you. We got swarms of little black flies on my friend's lime green tent, but they didn't bite; they were just annoying, and they disappeared once we covered the green up with a sheet!

Try the Bridge at Acle for good pub food and good beer in a lovely riverside location (very busy on the weekend - be prepared for a long wait)and go to Fairhaven water gardens for peaceful strolling & wildlife and a lovely cafe.

We liked the beaches at Winterton (with cafe & toilets)and Horsey Gap (just the car park, no facilities).

A brilliant holiday - gutted to be back at work.

 Stayed here Whitsun week. Camp is beautifully maintained. Even though it was a busy time the site was not overcrowded and pitches were a good size.

Toilet blocks very nicely kept with plenty of hot water. Management very helpful and the shop was stocked with everything you could possibly forget to take. Would highly recommend, also only 5 miles from Great Yarmouth.

 The site itself is a very well maintained site with good facilities. The washing up room was always clean and tidy and the toilets clean although they could do with putting a mop and bucket in the toilet block.The showers were hot all the time and there was never a queue.

There is a playground which my 3 and 4 year old really liked and a small well stocked/priced shop.

Would definitely re visit this site.

The area is fantastic and a few highlights are

Winterton-on-sea beach - spent 4 hours watching a seal about 5 metres from the shore

Boat on the Broads - Fineway boats very cheap and great fun.

Bewilderment - a must for families, zip wires for 5 year olds great.

Pirate crazy golf in Great Yarmouth

Reviewer: Poppet123 3 reviews from this member

 Good site. Clean and tidy.

Welcomed by helpful people. Safe for children to play.

Swimming pool wasn't open when we went. Good base for exploring the local area.

Would definitely go back there again. 


Date of Visit: May 2010 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Lisad123 3 reviews from this member

 We have just returned from here with our 2 children. The site was lovely to look at, and grass was great, the shop was very good and staff friendly. However, the play park had very little there, the showers were poorly designed where you have no temp control, and you have no space to dry yourself properly without getting socks and trousers wet because the shower curtains let water into drying part. They were small and impossible to shower children

You needed a key for toilets and washing up area which was a pain, and any *extras* was a charge.

The site was busy and dog friendly and if its just you and other adults its fine.

Reviewer: Morkeleb 5 reviews from this member

 Spent the Easter bank holiday here in our Caravan, myself the wife and our 2 kids, very impressed with it. From pulling up on the Friday, very warm welcome, loads of local info given out and shown to our pitch. Generous amount of room on a well cared for field. Even though we had some rain, was boggy underfoot, but drained well. Got busy around the edge of the site, leaving the middle section free for cricket/rounders/football that all the kids seem to enjoy taking part in. Failing that, there was a play area, that looked new and dog free, also gets locked late evening to keep noise down I guess. Toilets and shower blocks are modern with push button activation on the showers and very clean indeed (need a key though which is obtained from reception for refundable £5 deposit). On site shop is very well stocked, seemed too much stuff on the inside for its outward appearance.

Site is very well situated, GT Yarmouth is only 5 miles down the road, Hembsy is only a mile, with a small funfair and amusements and all the takeaways you can eat. My only (small) gripe about this site is the fact the the power points didn't have their own trip switches, you have two outlets in case one goes, but I think our kettle was on its last legs and kept blowing the 10amp feed in, which meant a trip to reception, but top marks for the prompt response and friendly manner in which must be a very frustrating job. Would I go again, with out a doubt. Nice work Scratby Hall, Ill see you again soon

Reviewer: 1stcamper 3 reviews from this member

 Myself, wife and one child are new to camping, this was our second trip. This campsite offered it all, very friendly and could not do more for us. The staff was always there to help the new camper. The toilet / shower block was always clean and with so many could always get in for a hot shower. The pool closed on some days due to rain but was a well maintained pool with seating around. The play area was good with a hedge around we could not hear any noise from it. Plenty of space around the tent. Could have done with a beer but the people on site were happy to ask anyone over for a quiet drink. If I went back camping in Yarmouth I would go to this site again. Because I'm new to it I want to try different places next trip is Cornwall
