 We visited this site for the first time we used our trailer tent. We had a good time the site was clean and friendly. Nice clean toilets and clean showers. Paul and sheila was very welcoming and friendly people. The thing that was good that there was fridge and freezers to store your food. Also a air line which was very handy to blow up the air beds. We recommend and we are looking forward to going again

We visited Pond Farm for our first family camping trip with our two children aged 4yrs and 2yrs.
We stayed for a long weekend, Friday, Saturday and Sunday night. Our tent pitch cost (per night) £8 plus £2 for each adult, under 5s were free.
There were,
3 showers - Free
3 toilets
2 wash basins with mirrors
Soap dispenser
Hand dryers
Washing up sink (indoors)
Washing machine and tumble dryer (pay for these)
Fridges and freezes (free, accessible anytime)
Local information board and leaflets.
A lovely quiet site spread over 2 fields.
The only negative point I have is the pitches were very very close together. We have a Khyam Tourer 400 and we were pitched next to a Vango 600, our guy lines were almost touching yet we were both within our marked pitches.
All in all a very nice site, perfect for families with young children.

I'm the first to leave a review this year, I am surprised because we had a great time at pond farm. Everything is clean and in good order. We were made to feel very welcome and so was our dog. If you want a nice quiet campsite this is definitely the one for you. We will be going back for sure.

Owners were very friendly and could not have been more helpful and were always around if help required.
The facilities were modern in rustic surrounds and were always clean no matter what time of day or night visited.
We had excellent news when we arrived microwaves for heating baby bottles very handy at 4 in the morning. plenty of toilets, showers washing stations and more fridges and microwaves than Curry's.
Very relaxing campsite away from major roads.
Would highly recommend to families.
Only downside no kids play area but to be honest they all played in the middle of the field with other children which was nice.

Being new to camping we were not sure what to expect but if all sites are like this one, then why holiday any other way, with free fridges and freezers, plus microwave if needed and 240v sockets for charging your essentials etc.
Good hot showers and washing up facilities, small charge for washing machine and driers via meter.
Owners very friendly, although the site is small there is still plenty of space for those who like to keep themselves to themselves, but we found campers to be a friendly bunch, the 2 lads enjoyed to space to run around playing football etc.
The site is well situated for exploring the north Norfolk coast and we shall certainly be returning next year.

We only stayed the one night.... but really wish we could have stayed longer. 2 adults, no kids. It was a lovely site, everyone was so friendly. Surroundings were beautiful. It was peaceful too.
The amenities were clean and well maintained. Showers always hot. The fridge and freezer came in very useful. Site is only a short drive from Cromer, which has really good beaches and of course crabbing!
I cant think of a single thing to be negative about. I would like to pass on our thanks to Sylvia and Paul. We hope to see you again!

This was our first family camping trip. The wife and two toddlers (age 1 and 3). Borrowed tent and went off with a sense of adventure. Pond Farm was chosen as it was the only place we could get into at short notice but the owners couldn't be more helpful.
Facilities are rustic as described but clean and adequate. Pitches are well marked and the site is quiet.
It rained all weekend and the wind blew a gale. It was wet and miserable but we had a great time. Got home in time for a scorching day. That's England for you.

All campsites should have fridges and freezers for free use by campers. This is such a sensible idea, and in line with what happens in many other countries. Why are other campsite owners so precious about this sort of thing? I feel a campaign coming on.
The site was very peaceful - although we were there mid-week before the school holidays - and run with a relaxed efficiency. As for "rustic" facilities - I would say they were just fine.
Away from the site, the footpaths in the area were badly overgrown; the pub nearby didn't do food (but one in the next village to the South was excellent); and the nearest stretch of beach really is difficult to get to. All in all, a lovely site in a good location.
PS. I wonder if by "rustic" they mean that the tourist info on the wall was approaching antique status? By the way, I noticed that hooks had been fitted in the showers, so they obviously read these comments.

We stayed here for 3 nights over the August Bank holiday. The site was fairly easy to find and despite lots of previous rain the ground was well drained and reasonably dry. This is a small site approx 30 pitches and although the kitchen and toilet areas were very cosy, they were not over crowded.
The site is in farmland and has a small road passing by it which mainly has the site's traffic. Because of the site's size and location, it is an ideal for parents with children going camping for the first time, as they can't get lost and are far away from any real traffic. We enjoyed our stay (missing lots of storms!) and found the camp staff very helpful and friendly.

Fortunately for us we had a lovely week of weather ¡V apparently the rest of the country was having thunderstorms followed by scorching sun. We had slightly hazy until the Friday and then one night of rain.
The campsite pitches are not bad, considering I got my Volvo Estate, a Trailer and a twelve man tent on the allocated patch. By booking early we got it for 8.50 a night. This gets you the pitch and access to the showers (Hot, Plenty of pressure and Private)
The cubicles have the shower and a duckboard changing area. The only gripe is a hook or two in the shower to hang stuff would be useful (it¡¦s a very small gripe ƒº )
You also get access to two sinks, one washing machine, one dryer, a microwave and a fridge. The power for the washing machines needs a small amount of coin in the meter but it¡¦s a hell of a lot cheaper than a launderette and when you have four kids its vital.
There are two camping fields and they are not too large so the maximum number of campers is never that high. The place is completely off the main drag so it¡¦s quiet and secluded. The fields themselves are bounded by impassable bushes so it¡¦s safe to let the kids run around even if they are relatively young.
The site is a great jumping off place to North Norfolk with plenty of attractions both free and expensive. There is a great kid¡¦s indoor warehouse in Cromer for very rainy days of if you just need a sit down with tea. The best beach we found to be the one off the 1000 place park to the north of the pier. It¡¦s not rocky and the beach is useable tide in or out. It also has shops and toilets on the espernade at the foot of the cliff.
We are definitely coming back next year ¡V campsites as good as this are very rare indeed.
