A very good site

An enthusiastic welcome started our recent week finishing on 12/12/2022. The stay was easy safe and enjoyable, a complete relaxed experience. The Wardens were attentive cheerful and available. The weather could have been better but hey at this time of the year not unexpected. Many thanks to the Wardens, a happy Christmas to you all.

Our favourite club site (in the winter!)

We love this club site and make frequent trips here in the winter (summer time it is very busy, expensive and noisy so we avoid it). The staff are always very friendly and the facilities are kept very clean (if a little cold this time). A short one night away this weekend and although the price has gone up quite a lot this year it is still very good value in the winter for the proximity to the beach and Cromer. This was the first time we have eaten in the restaurant, staff friendly, food reasonable, but the room was very cold!

Winter Break

We booked a week at Seacroft last minute as we had just bought our caravan and wanted to do a “test run”. Also, we had bought some vouchers two years ago during the height of Covid, then sold our motor home! So now wanted to use them by the expiry date end of December. No problems finding the site the access roads are pretty good. We checked in and discovered that the online booking system had already taken the balance of payment so the vouchers could not be used! Ok my fault for not reading the small print and unticking a box when booking, however I checked with CAMC head office who confirmed the payment could be refunded. I spoke to the staff on site who were very helpful but had not had to do this type of transaction before. Jennette looked into it and went “above and beyond” to resolve it for us, which took a number of calls. She could not have been more helpful. Anyway back to the site…. We found it very well maintained and the facilities immaculate, however due to staff sickness the bar and restaurant was closed for most of the time we were there only opening for some of the World Cup matches. We walked into East Ruston then along the beach to Cromer with our dog, around 30-40 mins, or direct from the site into Cromer about 15 mins. Overall, a great site in a good location we’ll definitely be back next year.

Good site

Finally, we found a campsite with a pub. Unfortunately due to staff shortage food was only available on one evening but after a long day out it was a pleasure to nip in the pub for a drink. The staff are friendly and the site is extremely clean. The toilet block has showers, toilet with sink cubicles and toilets. It was a 15 minute walk into Cromer and we caught a bus into the next village. Had a very pleasant stay and will definitely try and book again, although they get full extremely quickly.

A Week Long Stay

We have been to Seacroft a couple of times before but this time we decided to stay for a week and booked a service pitch. Not cheap at £37 a night for two of us but it was very convenient. Didn't really use the toilet block as we prefer our own facilities but they seemed to be of a good standard without being luxurious. The Bar/Restaurant was open five days a week. Used it once for a takeaway which was fine, very large chips!!! Did think we might use it again for meal in the restaurant but were rather put off by the large televisions in both eating sections. Prefer to eat in peace rather than hearing people yelling at the TV if a goal is scored! Good they have the TV hook up on the electrical bollards for a reliable TV picture. This is an excellent location for motorhomers if you don't want to take your unit off site. There are very regular bus services in both directions from just outside the site entrance. Can recommend "The Mo" or the Sheringham Museum, entrance fee quite modest. It traces the history of the Lifeboats operating out of Sheringham and on the upper floors how the town developed over the years with the advent of the railway. Speaking of railways the North Norfolk Heritage Railway starts by the main car park. It's a reasonably easy walk into Cromer.

A nice weekend

We recently had a long weekend at this site, our first visit and will not be our last. The reception we received was a bit off putting as the staff were dealing with new arrivals who were struggling to get to grips with the new booking system which meant they couldn't book what they wanted! The new arrivals area is a bit chaotic when we arrived at 2pm and that was with only 3 units. We used the top Motorhome point which appears to have barely any water pressure! We were given the choice of two pitches and we actually liked the one we initially discounted as it turned out to be sheltered from the wind. We walked into Cromer a couple of times and had a thoroughly good time for a short break. The facilities are slightly tired, but not helped by the fact that some people seem to thing cleaning up after themselves doesn't apply to them! We never used the Bar or Restaurant because it was not open when we wanted to use it.

When the toilet roll is blowing in the breeze in the toilet block you know they are well ventilated

It really is about time this site is not described as refurbished to a high standard because it does lead to an expectation that is not met. By the end of the summer the grass pitches are looking very tired and we needed to use levelling blocks for our campervan. We like CAMC sites because you can usually be sure the facilities will be warm and pleasant, however, here doors and windows are left open and showering was a very chilly and unpleasant experience. We do not mind that the facilities block is tired and old we just want it to be warm. The site is in a good position for Cromer and Sheringham and the coast is lovely.

Great friendly site

Thankfully we ignored the negative reviews given in August. Naturally the visiting fair had gone. The site was busy but this caused No issues. The shower block was clean with enough toilets sinks and showers to accommodate all guests.No nasty drain smells. We found the staff to be pleasant and accommodating. The grounds were kept in immaculate condition. There is a field for tents too which we have found to be rare. It was good to have the option of a bar and restaurant on site. We were able to walk to Cromer along the coastal path and then to East Runton. The beach at Runton was amazing. Yellow sand, lots of interesting flint rock to look at. All in all a great break away. We would recommend this site. Camping in school holidays is always going to be a different kind of experience unless an adult only site is picked.

Noises Fun Fare in field next door Avoid August school holidays if you want a peaceful break

We arrived at Seacroft, and were meet by the friendly site team. We pitched up, unpacked and made ourselves comfortable. It didn’t last long, at 6pm the fun fare in the adjacent field started up with blaring music, screaming children and a really aggravating DJ. The fare had been on site all August school holidays and was not due to pack up until the school holidays finished. We were later informed that this a yearly occurrence, although there is no mention of it on the club site. The site itself could be so much more, it has a nice heated outdoor pool, and on site entertainment club. The on site restaurant was closed all during our break, due to lack of a chef. The single shower block is tired and can be what is best described as aromatic. Even planting a few bushes to separate the different sites would help immensely as people, dogs and children on bikes would take the most direct routes through the site. It’s not the sites fault or the clubs about the fun fare, but if you go back and look at previous August stays, it’s obviously been a on going problem, and one the club should warn members of in advance. The fact you pay a premium price for a disturbed and restless break only adds insult. Whilst we stayed put and made the best we could, plenty of others left early and went to other sites. It’s obviously a nice site or else others would not have rated it so highly, but we will not return to this site again, such a shame it could have been so much better. It will be interesting to see if the club or site responds to any of the poor reviews.

Noisy! Pre-warned is pre-armed!!

We have just returned home from Seacroft and what a relief! The constant fairground noise from the adjacent field was shocking - a warning when booking really was necessary! The site itself is obviously not to blame for the arrival of the fair on the field next door, but this is not the first year this has happened - we were reliably informed - and so why a warning could not have been given when booking is very frustrating. Constant fairground noise from 6-10 pm for 5 nights really is not acceptable. The facilities on the site really do require a makeover - one toilet/shower block for the entire site is just not enough. A very disappointing stay - we will certainly not be returning.
