Faultless

Barleywood
Returned to this site after years of travelling the country and Ireland visiting dozens of sites. It is absolutely faultless and right at the top of our list. The hosts, Dave & Lorna are helpful and sociable but leave you alone. The location is ideal for the whole Norfolk coast and the delightful inland market towns. The addition of Shepherds huts offers something for non caravanning friends. The facilities onsite are exceptional. The showers and toilets are spotless. The adjoining Lane a blessing for walking the dogs. We went just after the floods and the grass pitches were dry and hard. Price wise it is VERY reasonable and I liked the metered electricity. Very fair and how it should be. If I ran a CL, this is how I would like to run one. Excellent.

Barleywood - A fine site

Barleywood
We have visited Barleywood on multiple occasions and apart from being one of the best sites in the country it is genuinely value for money. When you consider the facilities 2 x toilets/showers, washing machine, kitchen, free wifi etc., £18 including electric/night is surely great value.

Simply The Best

Barleywood
This has got to be one of the best CL Sites in the country. Lorna and David are always very welcoming and maintain the site to a very high standard. The facilities are brilliant and always clean. The information hut is always well stocked with food to buy. The price is fantastic value and you won't get better value in the area. You will need to book well in advance, so plan ahead. The location is great for visiting the Norfolk coast. Pitches are very spacious, with a tap near your pitch. Thank you Lorna and David

Barleywood yet again

Barleywood
Another great stay at the fabulous Barleywood. From Lorna and David’s welcome every aspect of this dream sire screams quality. We must have stay here 20 plus times over the years and never tire of the place. Many times I’ve outlined Barleywoods facilities which are second to none. I believe this is one of the best value for money sites in the country. Site fees are £18/night which includes a £3/night electric allowance. Many sites could learn from Lorna and David’s passion for their site
