Tent - Premium Grass Pitches Jul 2024

Giving this one four stars across the board for a family of five with children (11 - 14). The site was in a nice remote location. Basic services were provided and everything was clean and tidy. The beach was a key centre point and is easily accessible/walkable from the site. The site had nice space and was really low hassle. There were some basic play areas for the kids and mobile bar and alternating food vans. There was nothing spectacular but we really enjoyed our stay. We extended for a third night in the end (and tried for a fourth but it was booked out).

Beautiful location

This site is perfectly-placed for exploring the Norfolk Broads and it's costal area. The pet-friendly site gives direct access to a fabulous beach where nosey seals come up close to check out what you are doing. There are numerous toilets blocks, showers and I never had to queue even though the site was full. It is a family friendly park with great facilities for children and adults. Mobile food vans come onto site offering something different every night. The pizza was our favourite, they were delicious, and a mobile bar enabled us to wash it down. The community area is a brilliant place with a camp fire and seating. We spent our evenings chilling there after an adventurous day out. We will certainly be returning!

Lovely weekend

Just had a lovely weekend at Waxham Sands. The toilets nearest to the beach path were a bit of a tight squeeze to get in, so we used one of the other blocks which had more room and were a lot cleaner. The beach is fantastic with seals swimming in the sea. The site is well worth a stay. Be aware though, that if you want to get fish and chips or any other takeaway it is cash only. This is not just on site but in the nearby villages as well.

3 night stay

Waxham Sands Campsite is a lovely place to bring your family, meet up with friends, or have a relaxing break as a couple. The staff were very friendly and helpful with advice. The site facilities are spotless and it has a well stocked shop at reception. On the Friday we were there, a mobile fish and chip van, beer and cocktails unit, and crepes with rolled ice cream unit were there - lovely on a summers evening. The site has direct access to glorious Waxham Sands and the seals that are in abundance swimming along the shore stopping to take a peek at you. This was our first time here and we shall be returning with family members in the near future. We can highly recommend the site.

Peaceful campsite

Had a great time. Spent two nights here, recommend for all ages. Got to see the seals on the beach and swimming in the sea. The pitches are good size. Toilets and showers are excellent. Reception welcoming and had a shop with most things you'd need or if you wanted a treat, they would have something. We took our dog, he loved playing in the sand dunes. Will recommend to friends and family.

Great site!

Waxham was great! We unfortunately arrived on a very rainy day, but the staff were lovely and quickly brightened our moods. The facilities are great and location on the beach is amazing.

A lovely time despite the weather

We arrived and were met with a very friendly and helpful reception. Pitch was good and next to one of the toilet blocks. We found the facilities to be very clean and although this is the largest site we have visited so far, it was a lovely stay, didn't feel crowded or overlooked. The beach is brilliant and there is also a wooded area to explore. Overall, we were very pleased with our decision to stay here and would recommend it to anyone.

Brilliant park excellent for nature lovers and everyone

Have not been camping for a few years so we decided on a 2 night break to see how things went. Had a new tent so this was a 'trial run' before going away for longer. What a great site to visit. Good facilities, helpful friendly staff. Mobile signals are very hit and miss and the site guest Wi-Fi is not great, but other than that we could not fault the place. 2 adults, 1 small dog, no issues.

Nice clean showers & toilets. Reception helpful & friendly. I think that the food bars should be on more regularly, not just when football is on.

Wonderful place

We really enjoyed our short stay, thank you. The site was well kept, clean and tidy and we found it safe for our children. There were ample toilet facilities, bins and taps etc. The reception staff and afternoon warden was very friendly and kind. We've booked to come again. Thank you.

Would definitely recommend

Campsite has a perfect location right next to the beach. Pitch for tent was grassy clean and flat. Showers were very clean and nice, just the water a bit too hot for our liking. But probably better to be hot than cold 😃 We booked for Saturday, Sunday night but arrived on Sunday morning. Knowing that Saturday, we couldn't make it early prior booking the pitch, we called and were told that we can arrive if we can make it at around 9:30-10pm, which was perfect for us. After booking, a week before the booked date, I called to confirm the late arrival and I was told the latest is 8pm, which we couldn't make in time, so were told we can arrive early Sunday morning starting from 8am. Then again, I called on Saturday to tell that we will be arriving on Sunday and was told the earliest arriving time is 9am. So felt like there is a bit of confusion of timetable. Luckily, we were planning to arrive around 10am and it didn't affect our Sunday plan. Other than that our experience was perfect! It's a great campsite, definitely will come again soon!

Great location for the beautiful beach, saw some seals as well. Large shower cubicles with hot water and very clean. Good on site shop. Food vans on site. Plenty for children to do. Different types of pitches to suit all tastes.

Good site

Good, well maintained site. Close to beach, friendly staff. Clean toilets, showers, laundry. Nightly food trucks available - nice food but a bit pricey. Particularly liked the 10pm quiet time notices.

Great little find

Beautiful campsite in the middle of nowhere, directly on the beach,. Seeing the seals on the beach was amazing. Would definitely book Monday to Friday next time, as on Friday afternoon, all the families turn up for the weekend and are noisy. A lot of dogs barking through the night, much more peaceful during the week. Staff were very helpful, toilets and showers really clean.

Lovely camping site

Waxham Sands is a lovely camping site with great staff. They were always very polite & helpful. Plenty of toilet blocks that were kept clean. The toilets near the shop were pretty bad at weekends, not the cleaners fault, just the dirty people that used them. Safari tent with TV for the football was a godsend for my husband. Only one shower block with probably 9 showers, so never had to wait & they are good. The little shop sold plenty of goods, loads of different ice creams. Great little laundry room, I used everything. The Wi-Fi not very good, never worked at weekends and was on & off in the week. 4g signal didn't work very well either. The grass really let the site down, not cut much and when it is not picked up, it can get trampled in the tent.

Staff are very welcoming, the site is very clean and tidy, set right next to Horsley beach. The on site shop was reasonably priced with a variety of essential items. The firepit is a nice feature to get everyone together, a couple more dotted about on site would be nice. There are communal BBQ's around the site, showers, toilets, play park, a games tent, though they could do with modernising the games and maybe add a few more. There was a ice-cream van, alcohol van and food van though I found these to be a little overpriced. I would highly recommend this site for families or just a quiet relaxing break away.
