It took us two years to "get in" at this CL and we were not disapointed.I won't mention all the great facilities as they are well documented but will say it lacks for nothing because of the work and forsight of David and Lorna.
Peacefull, scenic and with
immaculate facilities and great location for exploring Norfolk.
The weather was mixed with plenty of rain during our two weeks but the site drained well.Firm grass pitches! What a joy!
The extras such as tv, microwave and well stocked fridges(prepared meals,ice creams and chocolate) in the information hut were a bonus.
Definitely 5 star and 10 out of 10.
The best site of any size that we have been on.We will return IF we can get on again.Only made it this time due to a cancellation.
Can recommend 100%.
Well done Lorna and David.
Faultless
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.
Cl site
This site is outstanding very good value for money and faultless. The showers washing facilities and the general area is very well maintained and such a beautiful view .. the owners Dave and Lorna are very hospitable and everything is how it should be for a relaxing time away in youre motorhome /caravan
Not tried the home made apple pie yet as no custard but will defiantly be in the menu during our stay
We will be back
Barleywood - A fine site
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
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
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

Fabulous site
Good room to pitch, facing how you wish. Warm and helpful welcome from David.
All grass pitches and our 7.5 motorhome might have struggled if it had been much wetter. The facilities are comprehensive with a lovely hut that provides washing facilities, washing up facilities, microwave and honesty box purchase of goodies such as ice-cream and local chocolates from a fridge with a freezer for purchase of ready meals. Lovely area to visit and we enjoyed great e-bike rides. Will definitely visit again.
Amazing find
A fabulous find, Barleywood CL in Norfolk. David and Lorna are excellent hosts. There when you need them, but not in your face. A washing up room that has a washing machine, tumble dryer, (charge for use) kettle, microwave, fridge and fridge freezer with milk, ice lollies and other goods for sale with an honesty box. Two shower rooms, with hand basin and toilet in each one. Again immaculate. There is a charge for using the showers. Again it’s an honesty box.
Large grass pitches, that like everyone’s lawns are suffering with the dry weather. That’s not a criticism, but I read a review complaining about them. I am not sure what the site can do about the weather! You can pitch in any direction. No worries about being nose to nose on a site this size. EHU and water to each pitch. Grey waste can be piped anywhere on your pitch. Chemical waste disposal area.
£18 a night. We have enjoyed it that much that we have booked for 2024! It’s hard to get in it’s that popular.

Beautiful site to watch the snow falling horizontally!
We came for a relaxing break and some dreadful weather gave us that opportunity! Not sure I’ve ever seen horizontal snow before, thanks to a strong easterly wind at the same time. But we were snug in our caravan at Barleywood. Their frig and freezer were well stocked with essentials (and treats!) so we had no fears of starving. The site is impeccably tidy, clean and well kept, with water and electric on each pitch. There were never more than 5 outfits on site, which was good for such a nice large field. Had a friendly welcome from David who pointed out the direction of sun during day (somewhat ironic that info turned out to be!). Barleywood is obviously well loved and well used. There are other cl sites along the same road but we didn’t notice many ‘vans on them, so that perhaps tells its own story. A little traffic noise during peak hours, but blissfully quiet at night. Well done Barleywood. We might be back- if we can find a space in your busy booking schedule!
