 A delightful site. I agree with all the positive comments made on here already. The three fields are large and well serviced by two shower blocks per field - all immaculately clean. Maybe because we went at the end of the season or maybe the owners have now addressed the problem of luke warm water, but the showers were lovely and hot!
The play area on Marl Pit was very imaginative and better than many I've seen before, our 6 and 8 year olds were very happy with it. In fact, it is a very safe feeling site for those with young children - no roads to worry about, just a farm track which can't be taken at anything over 5 mph.
Many pitches are slightly sloping but nothing to worry about too much, in fact after a bout of torrential rain I was quite grateful that the water ran away from the tent. Whilst the site enjoys some fantastic sea views it is still quite sheltered with trees and shrubs to block out the full impact of the wind.
The site went pleasantly quiet in the evenings without making you feel you had to behave like a monk. There was a really lovely atmosphere and friendly commaraderie on the Marl Pit field and I assume it felt the same on the other two fields.
We stayed for three nights but could have happily stayed a week or more as there are so many places to visit in the area and plenty of things to do within walking distance.
A site which is a real credit to the world of camping, we will definitely be returning and I can't wait.

We enjoyed this site and will return.
It was our first camping trip for a number of years, and our first with our toddler.
We stayed on Marl Pit Field, and were a bit apprehensive before arrival as the site was full according to their web site. It was a free pitch, and we easily got two pitches together for our friends. There was plenty of space and we didn't feel hemmed in. Some areas were flatter or more sheltered that others, but with some windbreaks we were fine in quite strong winds.
The toilet and wash blocks were clean, although the 'new' facilities ran out of hot water (inconvenient on our last day as we had to wash up in cold water - not good) but we loved the flexibility of the family shower room, and never had to wait more than a few mins for it.
The children’s play ground was fine for when they were 4+, but there wasn't much for our toddler - no slide for example. The field for games was good, though, nice and windy for kites!
The site was generally quiet in the evenings, just one group kept us awake, and they were quiet when asked. We were NOT impressed by the ice-cream van coming round at 8pm though - we had just got our toddler to sleep, and were camped next the roadway. He did stop his very loud jingle when he went past our tent though, as my DH had been dispatched to ask him to do so! I'm sure I come across as miserable with that comment, but I need some time out as well, and that van was so loud.
The surrounding area has been reviewed by lots of people - we found the walk into Cromer pleasant, the Co-op and Morrisons are nearby, so we didn't even notice that the campsite didn't have a shop.
All in all, a nice site for a family trip.

We have stayed here three times so far this year and plan to visit again soon! I would recommend this site to everyone. The facilities are not only spotless but there are plenty of showers and loos for everyone plus a family shower room. The water was nice and hot even when the site was busy (and shower still clean and tidy then too).
Beautiful setting with views of the sea and rolling hills, within walking distance of two very good supermarkets and also the beach.
Some lovely walks for the dogs. Plenty of space for games, and wonderful play area for children!
We may only be an hour from Manor Farm and stayed one night each time we visited but each and every time we felt we have had a wonderful restful break.

Just back from the B/H weekend. What a lovely campsite! Clean and tidy around the site; toilet block on Molls Meadow always clean and as I rise early I had pipping hot water and the place to myself at 0630hrs, my daughter had to queue at 0800hrs and the water was not so warm - but it was the B/H weekend. The kids loved the play park and the ice-cream van too!
If you take the road in the opposite direct to reception you can walk to Morrisons, Co-op or Argos Extra (if you have forgotten something) in 10 mins. This is much easier than trying to park the car in Cromer.

We have just returned from a week at this campsite and were left very impressed. We had ditched the kids for a week and decided to walk the Norfolk Coastal Path with the dog. As luck would have it the NCP runs along the track leading from reception up to the camping fields. There is no site shop probably due to reception being further from the fields than the local Rainbow supermarket, though gas is available from reception apparently.
We stayed in the dog friendly site where we found a more secluded spot. We had no contact with the site owners after booking in, but didn't need it either. The size of the site means that the personal touch is not an option compared with other more intimate sites.
The concept of dog friendly field initially appealed, but having now been, it seemed to be an excuse for the less responsible dog owners to behave quite badly. I witnessed dogs being allowed to wee nearer to the drinking water taps than I would have liked and my partner witnessed dogs in the toilet/shower block a couple of times. This is not necessarily a criticism of the site more of the people that were there when we were. That said dog foul seemed to be confined to the farm track not the fields, though still not really acceptable.
For you camping needs there is a camping shop in East Runton or an argos next to the coop in cromer. The Coasthopper bus service runs from cromer to hunstanton if you want a change in pace.
Try Blakeney for crabbing (park in the town hall for free parking), and Wells for Chips at French's. Apparently the first bomb dropped during WW1 on British soil was at Sheringham, there was a plaque on the wall.

Excellent Site!
We camped on the Dog friendly site and accidentally found the best pitch on the site, I'm not sure I should give it away but to give you a clue it's nearly 180 degrees of sea view and up a bit higher than the rest of the site.
The facilities are excellent. There were two large freezers for ice blocks. No q's for showers at any times, there are loads of them so not really surprising.
The site went quite at 11pm. There were some groups but all well behaved.
Cromer full of amenities inc a Morrisons. But bear in mind that if your used to the delights/horrors of 24h shopping then you'll need to remember that all but Budgens close's after 8pm. And Sundays are apparently still sunday in north norfolk. (Supermarkets closed by 4pm)
The Beaches are clean albeit a bit flat. Not many that are Dog friendly.
If you want to eat out then Cromer offers many good family eateries, more fish and chip shops then you can throw a stick at.
Holt though for us offered the best food options. The Kings Head and it's Sister Pub somewhere across the road were both excellent and reasonable. A meal at the friendly Kings head Drinks and Wine came for 4 adults came at approx 20 pounds per person. Kids inc our friends 2 year old were made to feel very welcome.
Overall one of the best sites we been to. What makes it even better is being members of the CCC this was our backup site, but after being greeted on the phone by a very rude lady at the CCC Cromer, we ditched that site and came here. Even the CCC's own magazine recommends it. We'll be back
Drive from reception to sites, interesting to say the least if you have a wide car or meet anything coming the other way.
If there was one criticism it would be the water heating systems. Couldn't cope with the demand at peaks times. Not cold though, just not as hot as at other times.

My husband and I stayed here for three nights at the beginning of the month.
Good points:
It was only an easy, flat, fifteen minute walk to Cromer, where there are plenty of things to do and see
There was a nice view of the sea
The site was quiet and in a nice location
The shower and toilet facilities were clean and free!
The site had a play area
Bad points:
There was no one around when we arrived, so after waiting for twenty minutes, we drove over to the field and pitched with no direction and paid (but hadn't thought to leave a sign).
The site only had two sinks for washing up, so long queues next to the bins, which were overflowing and surrounded by wasps
The freezers for the ice packs didn't seem to freeze them-ours were in there for two nights and still only partially frozen
There were no recycling facilities
Overall, we had a pleasant stay

We have just returned from Manor Farm. We did not want to leave as it was so nice! The gallery pictures do not do the site justice. We had a lovely view of the sea from our tent and as it was carnival week watched the Red Arrows and the firework display from there. The warden and cleaner worked hard, even late at night, to keep the shower and toilet blocks clean and were very friendly. The site is close to Cromer town and the beach. We were on Molls Meadow where the toilet facilities were new this year and very good. The free use of freezers for ice blocks was a really nice touch. (Other camps seem to 'hire' blocks out for a charge)Because the site is on a hill it can be windy, but there are plenty of pitches in sheltered spots and view makes the wind well worth it.

We stayed here for a 2 week visit in 2009 for what would be our first camping holiday. We arrived to a very welcoming reception. The gentleman there was very helpful. We stayed in Molls Meadow where we had amazing views from our pitch. We always had hot water for showering and no problems with queues for the washing up sinks. (all in the timing). It was nice and quiet and we are looking to go back again this year. The facilities were clean and tidy and the staff on site were extremely friendly.

Spent a weekend at Manor Farm, and can only find good things to say about it. It was a hot summer weekend so the site was busy, but there was still plenty of room. The site is spread over two or three fields for tents and one for caravans. Most of the pitches have sea views.
Shower blocks were clean - on this busy weekend there was a bit of queuing for showers and washing-up sinks, but I shouldn't think that would be a problem at less busy times. Lots of families camping there, and it's a good place for kids, with a nice playground and lots of space to run around.
The campsite overlooks the sea and it's a 20-minute walk into the seaside town of Cromer or the smaller village of East Runton, both of which have nice beaches. Cromer has plenty of shops (and great fish & chips!).
