 This is a lovely site – well laid out with a lot of gravel paths and very peaceful. There are two heated toilet blocks which are always being cleaned (and never closed for cleaning). In the ladies there are 4 toilets, 2 showers, 2 washbasins and 2 private basins plus a free hairdryer (a proper one).
The showers were very good – large shower heads and plenty of hot water – NO pushbutton. Don’t know what it would be like in the high season with only 2 showers in each block. There is a laundry room and 4 washing up sinks – under cover – in each block.
There is a small children’s playground and an enclosure with about 5 goats and a sheep. A nice touch is a seating area with two huge sails for sunshades. The site is fairly level but when it rains some of the pitches near the lake become very water-logged. We saw one couple having to bail water out of their caravan awning.
The site does seem to be weighted in favour of caravans but there were still plenty of tents there – especially at the weekend. Wifi is available but can be a hit and miss affair.
The staff are very friendly and helpful and the whole site has a “comfortable” feel to it. I really loved Deer’s Glade and would like to return sometime.

Just returned from our second visit to deers glade and we have booked again for next year. We just love this place it has everything we love in a camp site. I can never understand how a site with over 100 pitches can be so quiet and peaceful.
The site is sheltered and the owners are friendly and are always there to help and all the staff are friendly and helpful. Although we had been before and knew where our pitch was the owner insisted he went with us to ensure we were happy. The toilets are spotless as are the washing up sinks.
Its the little things that sometimes other sites don't think off that make the difference for me like not closing the toilets for cleaning at the same time you have to vacant your pitch, these toilets are never closed, sites who say they are dog friendly when they are not, at Deers glade they have rings where you can tie your dog up outside the shop, toilets and washing up sinks, and there are lots of poo bins.
We brought some logs for the fire pit which we did not use due to the weather the owner just gave us a refund without blinking an eye, something you may not encounter on other sites. The fact that we have booked again is recommendation enough, we love it here.

Just got back from a week's stay at Deer's Glade. Everything you read in the reviews here are true - facilities are excellent. The luxury of having a shower and not having to keep pressing the button was great, and also the shower block was heated.
There was a free hair dryer that actually worked. It was the first time I have been camping and had a shower leaving the building warm and dry. The water was piping hot all the time and the toilets do not close to be cleaned - those guys just crack on and clean around you.
There are two washing machines and one tumble dryer, coin operated - all work perfectly. Two hand washing sinks also.
The site was quiet and well sheltered. My 13 year old had great fun with his friends exploring the woods and found the field full of deer and the 'secret pond'. There are deer roaming in the forest and we were lucky enough to see them.
Dogs are welcome and the staff are helpful.
Near to Cromer (Morrisons)and the beaches of West Runton, Overstrand and Holkham are within a 40 minute drive. Wells next the Sea is nice for shopping.
My husband and son both fished the lake and spent most evenings fishing there which was only a stone's throw from our tent.
We have already booked for May 2013 - what a great campsite.

We stayed for a fortnight at the end of June, in all the wind and rain the Great British Summer could throw at us. I have to say, I was very impressed at how well the site coped with the inclement weather - the pitches drained very well, and the facilities remained spotlessly clean throughout.
The site is pretty close to Cromer, and in easy reach of Norwich, The Broads and the North Norfolk coast. There's a pub reasonably close - I believe they run a minibus to and from it in high season. We didn't try it, but the brochure looked really nice.
The loo/shower block on site is modern, and the very posh 'proper' showers were divine! I wondered why there was a notice asking campers to be considerate and not spend ages in the shower - until I tried one out. The pitches are a good size, and are separated by hedges. We always use rock pegs, but could have got away with pin pegs if we'd needed.
My only real criticism of the site would be that at the weekend there were children playing football and catch around the pitches, despite there being a really nice play area for them (with a big-top style covered picnic area) right in the middle of the site. I realise that it was the fault of the parents (especially the ones actually playing footie with the kids outside our tent!), but it might have helped if the site owners were a bit more strict about ball games. We did start to get a bit fed up of telling the little darlings to take their game elsewhere as the ball hit our tent again, or they nearly tripped over our guy ropes running after it, though not to the point where we felt it was bad enough to complain.
The site was quiet at night, although I did hear young babies crying from time to time, but there's not exactly much anyone can do about that!
The tariff was very reasonable per night for a tent with EHU. We felt the wifi was quite expensive, so we didn't try that. However, the mobile (3G) signal is just fine, as is the tv signal.
We'll definitely go back to the site - hopefully to try out the mega pods, which looked really nice, set in the woodland at the edge of the site, with their own outdoor area.

Deers Glade is a small family friendly site with helpful staff and a small shop. We have stayed in a standard pod, mega pod and our Nevada M tent.
Pods have their own parking spaces, TV and heater, own garden area with large picnic table and umbrella, brick bbq and a chiminea. Its like a mini centerparcs! The mega pods have their own toilet and kitchen, which came in very useful as it poured with rain the whole weekend and have access to another pod which contains a lovely shower!
When we camped the general toilet block had underfloor heating, was cleaned to a high standard and had hair dryers. There is a small play area and farm animals. Will go again.

Stayed at the site for a weekend in May. We're a family of 2 adults and 3 children aged 15, 11, & 10 and we also took our 4 dogs. Friends joined us with their caravan and we were put opposite each other.
We were given an extremely friendly welcome and shown to our pitch. Due to heavy rain our pitch was quite muddy so we were advised to park our car in the visitor spaces near reception which was fine with us. We do struggle to find campsites that allow us to take 4 dogs but Deersglade were so accommodating when I contacted them.
The park is very pretty, well maintained and the toilet/shower blocks are the best we've seen on a campsite! Fishing on site looked good and there are woodland walks.
The playpark is quite small but very modern and the younger children spent their whole time playing there making new friends. The shop sells the basics and the reception has loads of tourist information.
The site is so lovely that our friends just returned for another weekend plus while we were there we have both booked to go back for a weekend in July! I have recommended this site to other friends and this will be a site that we will be returning to every year! Can't wait for our next visit!

What a lovely campsite, very friendly owners, couldn't do enough to help, shown to our pitch on arrival and the facilities were all explained.
Two toilet blocks, one either end of the site, ladies had 3 toilets, 2 showers and 2 enclosed sink areas with a further 2 sinks in the main area, lovely and clean and heated! It was a pleasure to go in such a lovely warm toilet block. 4 sink areas for washing up in each block, lovely hot water.
The campsite gave us some prepared bike routes and we went on the 15 mile one, when we got back hubby's cycle computer reckoned we had done 23! No wonder we were shattered!
We went on a couple of small walks around the campsite through the woods and past the pods, everyone we met spoke and it seemed a very friendly site.
Only £1 extra a night to have EHU which was really good value for money, we certainly needed our heater in the tent on a night.
The site has a fishing lake if you're into that too, a lovely children's play area and a communal picnic area.
It was so lovely we rebooked before we left!

We stayed on this site for a week, Easter 2011, and found it to be excellent. This is by far the best site we have ever stayed on in thirteen years of caravanning / camping.
The location was excellent being near to Cromer for shopping, eating out etc but it was in a beautiful setting with no noise other than the owls and wildlife at night which were nice to hear.
The pitches were of a good size and everything seemed to be close at hand. The children's play area was very good and the lake was fantastic to sit by or walk around.
The staff were helpful and polite but most importantly of all the toilet / shower facilities, two new blocks, were plentiful, very well equipped, and spotlessly clean.
We will definitely return to this site and would highly recommend it.

A great easy to find campsite with some lovely snowy walks, dog friendly,
Showers/toilets were in very good order, kept very clean, underfloor heating was such an asset, amazing hot showers with good water pressure,
I bet its a lovely place to stay during the summer, close to cromer and north Norfolk coast line. Easy access to Broads, Norwich,
The pitch sizes are generous with plenty of room between pitches so the site never feels overcrowded, but.
Gate locked at 11pm till 7am, no use to us as we wanted to photograph beach sunrises.
The site was very well kept, but perhaps the gravel road could of done with being salted to stop it being icy,
I'm afraid we wont be returning as most of our trips to Norfolk are for photographing sunrises.
