 Although some areas of this site are very well managed, others areas are far from perfect, the toilet / shower are OK, but could be much cleaner, the touring field has a steep slope (to get our camper level the tow hitch was touching the ground with the rear legs fully extended) good job we did not have to put the awning up ? & make sure you take some wheel chocks if you don't trust you hand brake ? Be warned this is a big site so it gets very busy during midsummer, due to the lay out of the pitches the chances are people will have to walk past though your pitch so don't expect any privacy, apart from that it not so bad low season

Having just spent two nights here I would just like to say what a great time we had the food was great and even though we hadn't booked for the Sunday carvery they still found room for us the only downside to our stay was the field is on a slope and there are not enough flat places to pitch your tent.Swimming pool was great and we spent all afternoon there and it was not over crowded. We will be going back to this site but not during the busy period.

We have just returned from a 3 night stay at Forest Park and can honestly say one of the best campsites we have visited. The electric hook up pitches are more than big enough. As there was 12 of us, various ages, we needed 3 pitches and managed to get 3 tents, 2 gazebos and 3 cars with trailers on and still had ample room. We were ideally situated for all amenities including the toilets which were clean the whole time. The indoor swimming pool was a godsend for the children who for a small fee could swim under the supervision of a lifeguard leaving the adults to enjoy some time on their own. Also, the pool has a designated time set aside ( between 8.00am & 9.00am ) for adults which is good if you don't want to swim with a load of kids. A brilliant pick you up after too many wines the night before! There is a clubhouse onsite but although we didn't really use it , seemed to be popular most nights. Don't miss the Sunday carvery with a choice of 2 meats and a Vegetarian pie , and as much potato and veg you could squeeze on your plate it was a bargain at £5.95 per adult.
After reading some reviews we were unsure about what to expect but we found this site spacious, friendly and clean and will be definitley be returning in the future.

We booked up this site early July to go the bank holiday weekend, and were told we would be on the overspill field, which instantly put us off! The overspill is by far better than being on the actual campsite itself, it's far from sloping, and we had a great pitch, I had previously read the reviews on the portaloos, and was expecting them to be grim, but they werent, they are very well maintained and I noticed someone there at 10pm at night, fixing a broken toilet handle, but.... there is only 2 showers for the whole field, which obviously you have to queue for, but isn't that the whole idea of camping?, at the end of the day your roughing it, and it's not home, it's part of the enjoyment.
The clubhouse is great, even though we aren't lovers of clubhouses, it's well stocked and very well catered for the kids, there is a pool, which again is well maintained. The shop is well stocked, and the staff very friendly. It's a fabulous site, but!..... trying to find it driving through Cromer is an absolute mare!, it's not well signposted.
Cromer is a beautiful place, obviously there is a beach there, and a pier, which is fab to take the kids crabbing on, kids loved it! Lots of places to drive to and Wells is well worth a visit as is Wroxham, you can hire boats in Wroxham and is well priced, but it's worth booking in advance if you are there in busier weekends, as we were.
All in all, this is a great site, and I would certainly visit it again, probably one of the best sites ive been to in the 12 years we've camped!

In 35 years of camping we have never been to a camp site that we wanted to leave as much as this one. We were expecting a quite relaxing campsite with plenty of room to pitch, what we got was a noisey, over crowded, untidy, unclean and very unfriendly site. Our nearest toilet block was a portacabin which as the week went on got less cared for. The pitches which we had been told would allow us to pitch as we required were in fact right on the main road, very sloping, which we hadn't been informed about, and were extremely close to the other campers. The forest and walks around the park are very beautiful but watch out for the dog muck. We were very disapointed with this site and won't be visiting again.

Beware this is a very sloping site, we couldn't get on to our original pitches with our caravan, so please check beforehand when booking. The facilities are very good and clean. The shop is excellent and staffed by friendly people.
The clubhouse is great for kids of all ages and the childrens entertainment is very good and caters for all ages. The food was nice and served hot. Despite initial problems we will probably return. Excellent riding stables at Thwaites Common.

We have just returned from a couple of days at forest park and I would like to say what a fantastic time we have had. It was the first time we had been camping since childhood and felt our children should experience it! We had children ranging from 16 months to 15 years and they all loved it. It was much more luxurious than I remember.
Forest Park has everything maybe a bigger park for older children but that is all.We had a meal at the club house and it was fantastic. I can not find any faults. Thankyou very much.

First week of the school holidays!
Don't panic !!
Fortunately this site coped admireably well with high volumes of poeple .Won't state what has been said previously, as it is a fair account .
Updates-still working on new shower block, will be ready definitely for next season. Appears to be a staffing problem which has manifested itself in only adequately cleaned facilities , and also rather poor standards of catering , chips with everything attitude , wrong orders , long delays - only the Sunday carvery cut the mustard according to seasoned campaigners. Entertainment largely very good for children , with an adult entertainer in the bar Friday and Saturdays.
This was the first camping experience for my two children aged 3 and 7 , and apart from the food here everything conspired to make them come again , though having a flat pitch not too far from the shower block helped !
Bad weather days - can recommend the Broads museum at Sutton Mill , Britains tallest remaining windmill,both inexpensive and informative , and the Sticky Earth Ceramic Cafe at Cromer .Here you have the opportunity to paint blank pottery and have it fired .Not cheap, but still a tremendous experience to have the kids take home designer pottery of their own.
Good weather days - beaches at Wells, Mundesly and Sea Palling
Note there is a Morrisons at Cromer , Sainsburys at North Walsham and a Tesco at Stalham.

Very clean, dog friendly site, excellent walks to quiet beach. Pleasant club house. We were out of school holidays so site was not very full but amenities look good.
One of the best sites we have visited in circa twenty years of camping.
Well situated for Cromer, Sheringham, Wells and Holt (an excellent tea room in Holt)

Although very large, this in an extremely friendly site & very well run.
If I had one minor gripe, it's that there aren't enough places to dispose of waste water. The only other thing worth mentioning is that you might want to take some levellers with you as the site is on something of a slope (although that means it looks quite appealing!)
