Norfolk Gem !

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel really welcomed by Hughie with a warm friendly smile, thank you. Hughie was on hand if you needed anything and we were very grateful to him letting us have a part for the caravan sent to his home. The site is maintained to a high standard and backs on to a beautiful meadow, full of flowers and wildlife. There’s a bridle way close by to walk the dog which was peaceful and quiet. The area has lots of walking within in easy reach by car, Holkham Hall, Blakeney Quay NNR etc. We both felt that we had had a very relaxing time,there isn’t the constant coming and goings of caravans on a daily bases (we’ve only been on large sites before ) it was our first time on a CL site and it won’t be the last ! Thank you Hughie and Flis we will be back to see you !

Lovely maintained CL.

There is really nothing to add from the previous reviews other than to say I totally agree with them! Hugh greeted us upon arrival and also was there to bid us well when we left and nothing was too much trouble for him. The site was maintained to the highest of standards with well laid out pitches giving everyone ample space to spread out and be comfortable. The facilities were very clean and hand sanitizer was supplied at all communal areas on site. Although located just off the "B" road it was quiet and peaceful with very little or no road noise to speak of. I would certainly recommend this site to anyone intending to visit the area and we will definitely return, in fact it's that good we have already booked Easter for next year!

Must visit CL

Wonderful welcome and exceptional service throughout. Nothing too much trouble for Hugh and Flis. Can't recommend this site enough. Will return without reservation. Only unit on site without own facilities, Hugh gave us exclusive use of site toilet because of Covid restrictions and agreement with other visitors. What more could you ask for, so thanks again.

Fantastic Stay

This was our first visit to Sideawood cl site but it won't be our last. We have caravaned for over 20years and never had such a welcome as we received from Hugh and Fliss. Hugh came over when we arrived and told us where everything was. There hospitality is second to none, the site is very tidy the grass is shorter than my lawn at home and Hugh is always busy keeping things tidy. We cannot thank Hugh and Fliss enough for letting us share their Little Gem of a Site. Ian and Carol Trowbridge

Best CL we've ever visited

As with all the other reviews on this site we had a great time at Side-A-Wood. Perfectly clean, tidy and peaceful. The owners Hugh & Fliss couldn't have been more helpful. Hugh drove me around for caravan spares and when my wife needed medical treatment he drove us there and afterwards some of the way to the hospital to ensure we went the correct way. We had booked on another local CL later in our stay; we went, but turned around and went back! A wonderful CL. We only wish it was nearer home so we could visit regularly. The town of Fakenham is pleasant too. Super chip-shop (HUGE fish) ! And the town of Norwich, and its cathedral, is really lovely. We would thoroughly recommend Side-A Wood. Thank you Hugh & Fliss.

Simply the best

We've been to a number of CL's across the country but this one is still the best. You are always guaranteed a warm and friendly welcome from Hughie and Fliss and made to feel at home at once. Nothing is too much trouble. The site is all grass and always immaculately kept. All five pitches back onto the fields with a view of the local wildlife from hares to oystercatchers. The loo is spotlessly clean and housed within the same unit as the washing machine, tumble dryer and fridge freezer. The location is very central for many places of interest being close to the RSPB and NWT locations on the coast, Snettisham, Titchwell, Holme, Cley and the seal trips from Blakeney. The next village, Sculthorpe has two excellent pub/eating options and Fakenham only a mile or so further has a Tesco and some interesting shops. We will keep returning as often as we can.

One of the Best.

We have been travelling around for 4 months (from NZ) using mainly CL sites and The Siding is one of the best for sure. Everything you could want. So clean and tidy and well maintained. Thought put into everything. Really flat, didn’t need the levelling blocks which was a nice change. Lawn was mown but no loose grass. A clean toilet available in a great shed, along with washing machine and drier. Book exchange which was much appreciated. Spotlessly clean rubbish bin area. Easy access from the road (no tricky gate to negotiate!) . And best of all a genuinely warm welcome from Hughey the owner. Certainly a CL site to recommend. Thank you so much...we didnt want to leave.

Excellent CL - Very pleasant

As a first time owner of a new caravan and on my first trip, I couldn't have landed on my feet more with Hugh. I had warned him of my novice status and he gave up his time to help me pitch and get settled. The site is extremely well maintained, easy access from the road (that can be a little noisy in the mornings) with the pitches well separated, and the grass maintained short. Having two dogs, the access (via a wide grass verge) to an easy dog walk was really useful. Hugh came over on my last morning as he wouldn't be there for our departure. I assured him then that I would certainly be visiting again. I also found out that the other caravanners on the site were very helpful when I had an issue when hitching for departure. I really landed on my feet at this site. Thank you Hugh. (P.S - Thank you hens for some gorgeous eggs)
