Nice CL

Elm Croft
We stayed here for a week in April the driveway up to the CL had been widened which was good , the lovely wooded area where you could sit and have a coffee has now gone and a caravan is in there overlooking the CL , all grass pitches are quite flat and we had a down pour one night but the ground was fine in the morning , there is a toilet also used as a imformation room as well , the cold water tap is outside the toilet , there is plenty of road walking roads are very quiet , the two walks we normally do to let the dog off for a run had been ploughed up but if you walk about half a mile to the fishing lake there are a couple of good walks there . In the village is a pub , cafe and shop . Thetford is not far away or Norwich , there is a wood at East Harling and one near Watton if you want to take the dog for a good run . Wyndham Abbey is not far away where you can have a cup of coffee and a garden centre which does good meals and plenty of pubs and cafe's about

Quiet site with good facilities

Elm Croft
We really enjoyed our short visit to this site. Booking in was easy and relaxed. We were informed to find a pitch and set up. Sally made sure we were welcomed and was keen to share with us all that the local area had to offer. A wonderful quiet site, with just the odd sound of the countryside to break the silence. We will be happy to stay at this lovely site again and hope it won't be too long before we return
