great cl

We have just returned from a 7 night stay at this cl and what great site it is. it is located just a few minutes drive from both Sheringham and Cromer which have good supermarket and lots to see in both towns. the site is level and plenty of space between vans, the owner was very friendly. A week was not long enough so we will be back soon and hope to stay on this site. Many thanks.

Brilliant little site!

We were welcomed by Nick & Sherry and Nick helped us to site the caravan and helped us before we left after a lovely 8 day stay. This is a lovely site, sheltered by hedges and trees, enhanced by pots of flowers, and each pitch has its own water tap, light, and EHU.. It is very handy for all amenities, supermarkets, garage, pub, coast, and the Broads. Nick has an amazing fund of local knowledge, which he is happy to share on a daily basis and nothing is too much trouble. We had a lovely 8 day stay - and even the weather was kind. Thanks again for everything.

Close to places of interest and Norfolk beaches.

This site is set in a half acre area behind the very friendly owner’s house who makes great effort to welcome guests and offer as much guidance and help that he can, The site is surrounded by trees on the main A148 road to / from Cromer. Unfortunately, when we were there not all the other guests were leaving the toilet emptying area clean with the hose provided for flushing after emptying their toilet which left it rather unpleasant for the next person. There is a shower and toilet but not all guests were leaving that clean after use either and overall it was not to good standard of cleanliness. There’s no pavement along the A148, on the site’s side of the road for safe walking from the site with dogs. The road has to be crossed and it can get very busy during the day and at rush hour. We did like how close it was to places of interest and the beach though, so much to do within a short drive away,

Comment from the Club

Thank you for the review and we are delighted that you found the owner's friendly and welcoming. They have been in touch to advise if you had advised them of the issue with members not leaving the facilities clean they would have rectified it straightaway. If you stay again and this is an issue please let them know and they will be more than happy to help.

Lovely Friendly Site

Just back from a 12 nights stay at this lovely welcoming site. On arriving we were met by the very friendly and informative owner Nick, who helpfully gave us compass points and told us we could pitch in our preferred direction. Pitches are well spaced. The site is very dog friendly and we were given a wealth of information regarding the local area. There’s a good pub/restaurant with excellent food about a 5 minute walk away. The beer garden welcomes dogs. This site is in an ideal position to reach the stunning North Norfolk coast with Sheringham and Cromer on your doorstep. West Runton and East Runton beaches are great for dogs with the latter offering 30 mins parking for 60p if you just want a quick walk. Further south are some beautiful beaches, all with good size dog friendly areas. We particularly liked Walcott with its large Sandy beach and a first class fish and chip shop on the sea front. Thanks for the recommendation Nick. There is some road noise but it really didn’t bother us. Would we stay again? Most definitely. We loved the area and the CL. Thank you

A jewel in the crown

What a wonderful CL. Ease of access, proximity to a local supermarket and plenty of places to visit, a wonderfully welcoming site owner, a shower and toilet, and all set in a beautifully maintained lawned area, on hard standings. Cannot recommend this CL highly enough.

Fab little site

First time here and what a lovely little place. Very welcoming owners Nick and Sherry, In between Cromer & Sheringham so perfect for the coast. There is a main road outside but to be honest we didn’t notice any traffic noise it just makes it easier to access the site. Will definitely be returning.

Lovely site to base yourself for exploring

Just spent two weeks here and have to say the owners are a credit to their site and so friendly and helpful. The facilities were all clean and everything was working. The pitches are on wood chip so drain well and surrounded by trees which we have watched reach the start of their blossom. Exploring by foot locally is great and the dog loved his stay as much as we did. We live in a close so the road noise initially (it was busy easter weekend) was intrusive until we tuned it out and switched off from it apart from emergency vehicles with sirens and high powered motorbikes the noise was purely down to the grippy surface dressing of the road and nothing that is within the site owners control. We will return to use the farm again to visit places we missed in the past two weeks.

Excellent all round

What a perfect location Grove Farm is, with easy access to the main Cromer - Holt road. Nick's welcome & offers of help were very much appreciated, as was the perfectly clean shower/loo. Great wood chip hard standing. Lovely views, only possible downside would be the road noise, but you soon get used to it! Stayed 4 days, wished we had booked for longer.

Friendly pleasant site, perect for sightseeing and walking.

Spent five nights here July/August in our caravan. The site is on a farm on a long A-road, so a keen eye needs to be kept so as not to overshoot. Once found, a short drive past the owners' house leads straight to the large CL site where the hut containing shower and loo is plainly visible. Proximity to the road means there is some road noise, but trees and foliage mean this was never too intrusive for us. The owners are very hospitable and obviously take pride in their site. It's obvious that several campers are regulars. All the pitches are level and bark-covered, while the grass field is well-kept and well-drained. Once the fees were settled and a quick tour was given (with a reminder to use eco-friendly loo fluids), we were left to choose our pitch and settle in. While the site is delineated by trees and bushes, from our pitch the countryside was also visible - a great view to wake up to. For a CL the facilities are good. The toilet building is clean and tiled throughout, each pitch appeared to have its own water tap very close by, along with EHU. SInce we were asked to empty grey water into the hedgerow and trees, we and others ran our hoses into the shrubs. I was struck that, were the taps (push to operate then keep pushing to fill aquaroll) were changed to standard, it would have created a serviced pitch. The site is well placed for tourism, in easy reach of Cromer, Sheringham, Norwich and the Broads beyond. Of our three hikes, I was able to route two excellent walks from the site without needing to drive, which was brilliant (though a short stretch of the busy main road needs to be negotiated). In conclusion, this is a fine site with lovely hosts, and we would happily return.

June 2019

Stayed for the week 9th to 15th June 2019. The week was a washout with heavy rain but this beautiful little site did not suffer with surface water mud or puddles. It is perfectly situated for the Coastal towns of North Norfolk. Very easy to find using SATNAV and the little white post outside was easy to spot from a distance. The site is very tidy and well kept pitches on new wood chip . The only downside to this site is the lack of a safe dog walk from site. The A148 changes from 40 to 50 miles an hour outside the gate and it is a hazardous experience crossing it with dogs especially in the morning and evening rush hours. There is a residential road just across the way but this is also a rat run for traffic and not ideal dog walking. Our only remedy was to drive 1/4 miles to the National trust forest where dog walking is perfect in a large wood.
