The Shieling gives you a perfect feeling

The Shieling
A perfect feeling of peace and tranquility. Immaculate site, with spotless toilet/shower facility. Dog walk straight from the site entrance was perfect for our elderly girls. Lovely walk into Cley, recommend the Picnic Fayre deli, Cley smokehouse and if you are up for a longer walk, Cookies Crab Shop at Salthouse is fabulous. Beach walks all easy to access from The Shieling. We had a fabulous stay in August 2023, highly recommend.

We love Cley

The Shieling
We love Cley, we've been coming here for years so we might be biased but we're delighted to have found a handy camp site in our favourite area. The Sheiling is a small but perfectly formed site, with good facilities and in walking distance (ours, at any rate!) from two nice pubs. It's certainly not a flat site; once we'd pitched up in April we decided to leave the camper van where it was and just walk everywhere, but it's a great spot to walk from and to return to.

Great CL site in North Norfolk

The Shieling
The Shieling is perfectly located for exploring the North Norfolk area. The site is well kept and although sloping, we had no trouble levelling our van. Mark greeted us as soon as we arrived and explained where everything was. The facilities are better than one would expect at a CL, having loo and shower unit plus books and DVDs to borrow whilst on site. The local pub is The 3 Swallows. Contrary to some previous reviews, we found it to be pleasant with friendly service and reasonable food. The pub has been under new ownership since November 2021 so this may explain the earlier poor reviews. The views from The Shieling are lovely, and the walk into Cley village is quick and easy.

Delightful, friendly and peaceful

The Shieling
We have just spent a delightful week at The Shieling and have to say in our three years of caravanning (maybe that’s not long!) this is by far our favourite site to date. We have generally stayed on the bigger Club Sites before but find we much prefer the peace and informality of sites such as this. We were welcomed by Mark on our arrival and he directed us to our pitch - the last remaining one (of five) but certainly one of the best, overlooking beautiful countryside and with views across to the sea. There was quite a slope to the field but extra blocks are provided. The shower/wc was spacious and always spotless and everywhere was extremely well kept and cared for. We have an old dog so the adjacent wooded footpath was a blessing. We had supper at the Three Swallows on two evenings and had perhaps a better experience than some other reviewers - the food was excellent and the service acceptable. If and when we return to Norfolk, we will definitely book into The Shieling.

The Sheiling - Excellent

The Shieling
We stayed for a week in June, the site is spacious away from the hustle and yet close enough to local facilities in Cley. The site sits overlooking miles and miles of quiet countryside. The Shieling is very well maintained including the toilet and shower room. There are no rules on site as such with the friendly owners simply requesting you look after your spot. A real chill out location. Excellent - recommended.
