 This is the best campsite that I have been to. The staff are really friendly and helpful, and happy to advise on what to do locally. The pub and cafe serve good food, and it's great being able to order baguettes, croissants and a paper for the morning.
The toilets and showers are clean. There are lots for the kids to do, with the play area, pool, and masses of space to lose the parents in! there are a few activities available that are also good, like archery, bike hire and canoeing.
The campsite is run really well and I can't really find any fault with it! would definitely go again.

The best site ever!
I took my three children ranging in age from 14 to 6, and there was enough to entertain all of them all including a coffee shop for us.
The toilets were lovely and clean with hot water all day long, we stayed in the old orchard field which is close enough to the pool and playground so you can keep an eye open for the kids while enjoying some peace and quite at the same time.
The site layout is great, my little boy loved the fact he could wander through the surrounding woods by himself(the site is surrounded by a pine forest), I felt completely at ease letting the kids wander around by themselves my only wish is I took the their bikes. Its only a short drive to yarmouth and norwich with lovely village pubs on route.

This is the almost perfect camp site in my opinion.
We have 2 small children and went in early July.We arrived at the park to find it is efficiently run with smiley, helpful staff(just what you need after a 4 hour car drive). The pitches are well marked and the facilities are clean and pleasant.
It is great for children from the wildlife display behind reception to the play area. The family bathroom even has a bath. Bliss! Much better than trying to squash baby into a sink.
My only tiny tiny gripe (and this is petty I know!) is that the cafe closes at 5pm and the on-site pub doesn't open until 6pm leaving an hour across toddler tea time we couldn't find anything quick and easy to eat. If the cafe shut half hour later and the pub just opened half hour earlier it would truly be the Perfect Site.

Best Site I have ever been on in 5 years of camping.
We have a large 8 man tent and it was no problem, the pitches are very spacious. The toilet/showers very modern/clean inside (the only thing I found odd was the stange times that were allocated to clean them).
I have special requirements due to having a medical condition but this was no problem for them to make arrangements for. The site was very busy, but because of the way the pitches are laid out it did not seem busy (we had difficulty getting booked originally because it is such a popular site). Most sites have a large number of caravans and some tents but this site had only a few caravans and mostly tents when we visited.
We arrived early in the day and had lunch in the Cafe as our pitch was not ready yet (but that was our fault). The pub/restaurant had great food and the service was excellent(you have to try the local cider), it has entertainment for kids on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and free WiFi. There is also free WiFi in the cafe, The cafe has a PC as well just in case you do not have your own laptop with you.
It is in an ideal site for visiting the Norfolk Broads, Norwich and Great Yarmouth, to name but a few places.
Lowestoft has a fantastic airshow, well worth a visit as it is held at the beach (we ended up on the beach for nearly 6 hours, it was just as well we took a picnic).
I would recommend this site to anyone.

10 out of 10. Great site, very friendly and helpful staff, I would really struggle to find any fault with this site at all if it wasn't for the rain. We pitched on plots 123 and 124 in The Heath and it got very boggy as we were at the bottom of the slope. Will be visiting this campsite again! but looking for flatter sunnier spot just in case.
The on site pub is great as it means you don't have to travel far to eat and drink, we ate there 4 out of 7 nights. It has free WiFi, swimming pool is small with a max of 15 people (that would be a squeeze) but at least its a good excuse not to go in. Toilet and shower/bath facilities were always clean and orderly. Pitches are of a good size with plenty of trees about, very pretty. Take ear plugs if you don't like being woken by peacocks.

Fantastic Site, one of the best we have stayed at.
Owners and Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Location very central, to visit the Broads, Great Yarmouth etc. There are pitches to suit every camper.
Excellent clean Facilities provided and activities on site, good sized pitches and ample play areas.
Good Food at the Musket Arms, also cafe which you could order bread etc.
Dog Bins + walking area provided.
Redwings Horse Sanctuary good to visit, Fineway boat hire at Wroxham great, and you can take the dog to both.
We and our Children and dog had a fantastic time even with the good old British weather.
We will be returning soon.

First impressions count, and I have never felt so welcomed on site as I did on arrival at Clippesby Hall at the beginning of the school holidays. The lady in reception was friendly but very efficient and helpful. A chap showed us round to our pitch on the south park (number 71) and most pitches were taken. I'd say there was a 70/30 solit in favour of caravans.
The facilities were very close at hand and cleaned twice a day like clockwork. There are three (ithink) blocks throughout the park) they are fairly small but pleasant. Toilet & sink in together. Four self contained shower cubicles to share between the gents & ladies (at least in our block). The play area was fab and the swimming pool was nice (if rather cold).
There is a lovely treehouse on the otherside of the site which we didn't find til near the end of our stay. The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The pub/restaurant was very nice (food's a little pricey to be honest) and I couldn't fault the staff. The children LOVED the kids dico on the Tuesday & Friday nights and we booked a table near the dance floor which was very handy as it got VERY busy in there on thoses nights. As for eating with kids, I recommend The Bridge on the road to Acle, good family eating, fab play area and a lot cheaper than on site.
The only downside about the site is that as the week went on, more and more tents arrived and we started to feel very crowded in our corner, these tents were sprawling and one day we went out for the day, when we came back we found someone pitched on our parking space. I honestly feel that if they had gone for just one less pitch on the top part of the south park it would have made all the difference. By the end of the week it was 99% tents and on the grass parts of the site there were maybe only 5 caravans. This made it very busy in the toilets blocks at peak times. Our hook up was a bit of a pain to get to, I either had to scamper through bushes or through our neighbours pitch. This also made it a pain to get water so I tended to walk across to a tap further away to avoid falling into a tent. I struggled to find a good place for emptying waste water easily. The chemical toilet emptying point was good but raised so you wouldn't want to haul a full wastemaster onto it to empty.
I would go back to this site again as it is so close to so many attractions (go to BeWILDerwood if you have children, it's amazing!) but we would pick which part of the site more carefully. The part over by the treehouse would be better as it's not a rat run for the pub and the pool. I imagine that out of season it's a fantastic site to stay at. There are some great bike rides to be had from there and they are a Broads Bike Hire centre. Also, the staff's knowledge of the area is fantastic. We wanted a really nice beach (I'll be honest Gt Yarmouth isn't for us, it's ermmmm an equired taste shall we say) and the guy in the office showed me Winterton on the map and told me from there we could walk to see some seals. He wasn't wrong, it was lovely. He also recommended really good boat hire people.
Aside from feeling a little cramped it has to be the friendliest and prettiest campsite we've stayed at.

Lovely campsite, clean very pretty. Pitches large. Real showers, no continuous pressing buttons and heat can be controlled. Only had to queue once to use showers. The staff are really nice and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Pub on site sold nice meals and another pub a little way from site was good too. Nice by river but weather wasn't nice enough for that. Plenty for kids of all ages to do and my 2 boys loved it. Would definitely go back.

What a fantastic site. We recently stayed here for a very enjoyable six nights. This site really is very hard to fault. My youngest son quickly made friends and was playing football with fellow young campers within minutes of our arrival. The shop was reasonably well-stocked and the coffee shop served excellent, reasonably priced snacks. (The breakfast baps were very tasty!) The pub served good basic pub-grub and the real ale tasted great.
There is a Tesco nearby in Caister but the Sainsbury's in Grt Yarmouth is better. Norwich Camping and Leisure is only a 15 minute drive away if you need any camping essentials.
The facilities at Clippesby are excellent but what really made our stay special was the staff. Everybody was extremely helpful and cheerful, and contributed hugely to the relaxed, family-oriented atmosphere. Our three children agreed that this was the best site that we had ever stayed on and we will certainly visit again in the future.

What a lovely and well maintained site, this was our first family holiday under canvas and booking clippesby was a real triumph.
The pitches are huge and we never felt bunched up even at the weekends when the site was near full.
Staff and management were all polite and cheerful throughout our stay, the resident cat took a shine to out boys(and our food), the peacocks were great at clearing up our snack crumbs too!
Toilets and showers are well maintained and cleaned twice a day in peak times, the family bathroom was a real bonus.
On-site shop is full of local produce, a little expensive but you get what you pay for to be fair.
The site is quite large with lots of varied areas to suit all types of campers makes this a very versatile site that should suit all.
Will return to clippesby without a doubt.
