Reviewer: Kala Taxidi 7 reviews from this member

 Just got back from a glorious weekend here. Lovely laid out site, pitches huge, although re-seeding had commenced. A minibus to the local pub was one big advantage, The Spread Eagle which served lovely food, so good we ate there on Sat nite too.

Immaculate shower/toilet facilities. Staff so so friendly, will definitely revisit. Saw loads of red deer.

There was a Mazda Bongo meet the weekend we were there but we didn't have a problem with that, they were a really friendly bunch of people who all rallied around to help with our tent.

A1 site.

 What a fantastic site, one well worth visiting. Was met by very friendly staff whom remained so throughout our stay. Best shower and toilet facilities I've ever used on a campsite with underfloor heating, what a treat. My hard-standing pitch overlooking the fishing lake was more than adequate for our caravan and car with plenty of room to sunbathe and admire the view, when we weren't visiting near by attractions or being chauffeured to and from the pub by the free mini bus service. Pub food was excellent and would def eat there again. . . . . . Didn't even mind the noise of kids from the excellent playground ground and sand pit available to them.

All in all a particularly great weekend and a site I highly recommend to anyone with or without kids and pets

 I booked this site for a 3 night trip to see friends in nearby North Walsham. I was impressed that the majority of reviews were positive, and although I agree with a lot, there are a few negatives.

Upon arrival (paying mid-season prices) we were well greeted by friendly staff. We were shown our pitch and here's where our first disappointment occurred. They had already started their winter works and had reseeded half of our pitch! Our tent is quite large and there wouldn't have been room for our tent and car. I would have also felt as if we were pitched on the road! We went back to the office and were helped in choosing somewhere else - which wasn't an actual pitch! I would have expected this when paying low-season rates.

The toilets were immaculate and very warm! No complaints here at all. Showers free, with adjustable temperature (great when you have kids) and a tap to turn it off and on, instead of a motion sensor or push button. The block was even cleaned during the night!

My first night was a bit of a nightmare, but this was due to my 7-year-old being a bit unsettled (we're still quite new at camping and it was a new tent), but looked forward to the second night as things would be more familiar and we were using the free minibus to the pub!

During the next day, a Bongo meet had arrived. Not a problem, so we thought.

The pub was a bit overpriced and disappointing. My meal was terrible and we thought they'd given us a discount. Unfortunately my husband couldn't fit onto the minibus back so went in for another drink and they stung us for the desserts we thought they'd given us for free. Nice idea, but not the greatest of places I've eaten at. Won't be going back there.

By the time we'd all returned to the tent it was about 9.15 and there was one Bongo owner with their TV blaring out and another in competition with his radio. After such a bad night before, the children luckily went to sleep despite the noise, but at gone 11pm, the TV and radio were still blaring. TV went off at about 11.30pm, radio stayed on all night and then parties started across the field. I didn't get much sleep that night, either.

Apparently there seems to be no all-quiet rule. I have stayed in places without one before, and at about 11pm voices become hushed and considerate towards people who don't want to stay up all night. Not here.

Not sure if we'd stay again. It is perfect in it's position to our friends, the facilities are clean and tidy and the staff friendly, but our experience hasn't been great.

 We've just returned from our first of (hopefully) many visits to Deersglade and had a fantastic time. The staff were very friendly and helpful and quickly offered an extension lead for the hook-up as ours wasn't long enough.

The shower, toilet and washing up facilities were first class - exceptionally clean every time. Our pitch was massive so we had plenty of space - especially when it came to packing up to go home.

The site was lovely and quiet - the large conifer trees around served as a useful sound barrier from the busy main road which was a little way away. We were out exploring the region during the day so can only comment on the site during the evening.

The only negative point is the fact that you need a car to get around no matter where you want to go to but having said that its only a minor point and the positives are far greater.

Can't wait to visit again!

 We stayed at this campsite at the beginning of September.

Plus points: The staff are very friendly and helpful. The ablution block is new, well decorated and clean with plenty of hot water. There are two blocks on the site and I never queued for a toilet or shower. I also understand from those there that fished that the fishing lake was good and well stocked.

Negative points: Some visitors were disappointed by the fact that the site wasn't that rural. Your actually about 300 yards from the A140 so if your in a tent the road noise can keep you awake. Your also under the main flight path for the helicopters going from Norwich Airport out to the oil and gas rigs. Your additionally right next to a farm; the farmer started ploughing at 7am on Saturday morning and the continual agricultural drone went on all day. It is worth bearing in mind that if your visiting in the summer holidays you may have the agricultural noises of harvest going on.

The tents and caravans are mixed up a bit so you did get a slight clash of interests. I.E campers trying to get away from it all, caravans having a home from home.

There are also no views to be had, your in the middle of a forest clearing so all you can see are conifers.

We won't be going back again I think, but we are looking for a quiet spot with good views. Some of the people there keep going back; they seemed to be primarily fishermen.

 Just returned from our 4th visit here!  We've been here in the rain and sunshine and every time we are greeted with a smile and a warm welcome.  The shower/toilet facilities are always clean.  Our kids love it here!  They go off to the playground and makes friends every time and you really feel that they are safe.  I have no problems in recommended this to everyone. This was a great end to the kids holidays.  Went fishing, walking in the woods to see the deer, rode their bikes.  Lots to do in this area but most of the time the kids just want to stay on site!  We love it here and will be going back again and again if we can.

 Just returned home very chilled after a lovely bank holiday weekend stay. They were fully booked when I first contacted them however I left my home telephone and to my surprise they had a cancellation and we were in. For a fully booked weekend it was pleasantly spacious. No queuing for the showers and perfectly clean. This was the second time we stayed there and was just as exciting. We highly recommend. Make use of the minibus to the pub. 5 stars all the way

 First time at site, weather was great (lucky).The staff are very really and helpful. Always plenty of hot water in very clean shower block which is cleaned twice a.Day. Fishing was ok but I have had better. My only moan was the campers with dogs who took their dogs to the woods and never cleaned up after them, I had my two dogs with me and cleaned up every time. The site owners do walk the woods and clean up every couple of days but they should not have to. Message to those dog owners clean it up if you have a dog like most of us do.
Lovely site in beautiful settings. 


Date of Visit: August 2007 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Rosbod 14 reviews from this member

 We spent 10 days on this site & as seasoned campers were very impressed. The owners believe in excellent customer service & it shows. The shop is stocked with essentials, plus lots of tourist info leaflets. The showers were hot, but a little too hot for my youngsters & I never worked out how to regulate them. There were 2 showers & 4 loos for each sex in each of the 2 toilet blocks, plus an excellent touch of a family/disabled room which contained a loo plus shower. This is invaluable if like me, you need to shower younger/multiple children. Although there were queues for the showers from time to time the wait was not long, even though the showers are free & not on timers. There were 2 private cubicles with sinks in for a wash. There is a laundry room with 2 washing machines & a tumble dryer & 2 all important sinks for hand washing. There is an enclosed washing up area with 4 sinks to each block. The local walks were lovely & for fisherpeople the lake proved popular. Our pitch was huge - we have a very large trailer tent & car & could have fit another tent in our space too. The children's play area had a sandpit & slide & although it was busy there was no real noise late in the evening, other than the deer calling to each other & the owls hooting. Cromer is worth a visit, but if you want a sandy beach try Sheringham as Cromer beach is a little too stony. For crab fishing the site owners recommended Blakeney, which was lovely but you need to fish at high tide to get lots of little crabs. The local Chinese takeaway, which is in a pub, is also worth a visit, as is the fish & chip shop over the road from it. We took advantage of the free lift to the pub & more or less chose our own pick up time. Provided the standards are maintained on the site (it is still relatively new) we will definitely revisit & we have never said that about a site before!

 When we were looking on this website for a good clean campsite in this area we thought the reviews sounded to good to be true for  Deers Glade , however, I can confirm that this site is the best we have been to in a long time.  The toilets/showers are very clean and comfortable and the site is kept lovely at all times.
The Owners are  really friendly and work their socks off everyday to make all their guests very happy. Everyone on the site seemed to love it and we have booked for next year (and we never go back to same place twice).  There are loads of things to do in the area and I have never been to a campsite that will take you to the pub (with your children and Dog) and pick you up later so you can both have a drink - totally fab
So I would highly recommend this site to all who are undecided where to book.
