Fakenham Fairways Reviews

Very satisfied

I was a solo traveller with two dogs and wanted a position away from others so my dogs wouldn't disturb anyone, although they were fine. Tried putting up the awning alone and asked for help and the two ladies were brilliant and we put it up together in no time. Great facilities and a quiet site, just what I wanted. Will definitely be back.

Nice, clean and tidy campsite for exploring Norfolk

Lovely campsite with clean facilities. Nice hot showers. Good value for money. Really nice owner who was very welcoming and helpful with local information. Great spot for getting out and exploring Norfolk from. Would definitely stay here again if I was to visit Norfolk in the future. Not a negative as such, as it didn't concern me too much, but for those wanting a quiet site, the site is quite near some busy roads, so road noise on the site can be quite loud.

Quiet friendly site in a good location

Site was ideal for our first touring caravan experience. Good location to explore North Norfolk. Facilities were very good and well maintained. Golf facilities were an added bonus, which I will hopefully use on our next visit.

A nice site

This was a good site - nice and clean with good facilities. The site was very quiet with many regular users in evidence. A highlight of the evening was the starling murmuration over the site, which was an added bonus.

Very good

Lovely, clean, well kept, and friendly.

Friendly site owners and clean facilities

Lovely and friendly site owners. Clean facilities.

Lovely, friendly, quiet site

We booked a short stay here fairly late in the season. From the start, communication was great. We arrived, booked in with no fuss and were soon set up. We found this site to be in a great location to be able to explore, with no more than a 30 minute drive we visited Hunstanton, Wells next to the Sea and Holkham. There are a few places to get food and groceries in nearby Fakenham (would recommend Mr chips!) The site had enough facilities even at this peak time. I think due to the amount of caravans there, it meant us campers could easily use the showers with no waiting. There is a freezer to put your freezer blocks in, the washing up area is enclosed and covered and the toilets and showers were clean with plenty of hot water. Yes, the nearby road was noisy but not distractingly so, and the site was quiet after 10.30 as advertised. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this comprehensive review and your kind words. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your stay on our campsite and that you found it clean and quiet. It also sounds like you got out and about and explored the area. There are certainly some lovely places to visit and we are also partial to fish and chips from Mr Chips!!

Explore North Norfolk

A well laid out (non-regimental) site . Trees helping to break up the landscape. Peaceful occasional road noise (not too loud) and easily adjusted to. Toilets and showers clean queuing at peak times. First impressions of entrance soon dispelled once on site.

Short stay in lovely campsite

Immaculate, well-organised campsite. Lovely welcome from host. Quiet campsite overall. We were in adults only section. There is a section for families with a playground, but that was quiet too considering it was the school holidays. Access to camp closed at 10.30 pm, which is quiet time. Nice spaced-out pitches. Both hardstanding and grass are available. New and spotlessly clean toilets and showers. Cafe on site which we didn't use. There is a lounge area in the cafe, useful for those in tents if the weather is bad. Ice packs and a fridge available also. Small dog walking area with plenty of dog bins. Overall a pleasant stay in lovely weather.

Fantastic

Fantastic site, super people and all in all a perfect holiday, thank you both for everything you do. Look forward to returning.

Excellent

We can’t wait to go back next year.

Site's response

…..and we look forward to you coming back next year!!!

Good clean site

Good clean site, great if you like golf. Convenient for access to the coast.

Site's response

Glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Not many of our campers play golf but those who do seem to really enjoy it.

VW camper

Great location near Fakenham and lovely quiet site with lovely hosts. Really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return. Shame you can't walk into town or to a pub because of no paths on the road as we have a dog but won't put us off returning. Also can't really comment on the family camping area as we stayed on the adults only, but did have a walk round and everywhere looked really nice.

Site's response

Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and the fact that it's not easy to walk from the site, won't put you off visiting us again. Hopefully, we will see you again soon.

Great Experience

I've been camping for decades and I really love this campsite. Jacquie is so welcoming and kind it made all the difference. She even greeted us at the gate to show us our campground and provided all our electrical needs. Excellent facilities and hot water and everything were kept exceptionally clean. I love the gate that stops cars after 10:30 pm and is completely silent after 10:30 pm. In summary short I can't recommend enough, and I would definitely come back again when I am in the area.

Site's response

It was an absolute pleasure to have you and your family camp with us and so we are delighted that you had such an enjoyable stay. We do try and keep everything clean and make everyone feel welcome, so it's brilliant when we read reviews like this. Do hope that you are back in Norfolk soon!

Peaceful

Lovely well kept site. Staff were very friendly and personally showed you to your pitch. Toilets and showers were okay but could do with an extra clean at high used times (unless I just happened to go in at wrong time). No shop onside and not really anywhere to walk and main road very busy. Pitch and putt, crazy golf and driving range available (we used crazy golf). All in all a lovely peaceful site for a chilled weekend 😀

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are are delighted that you found our site well kept and had a go at crazy golf. We are disappointed that you felt the showers were not up to standard. We do clean them more frequently during busy times and will always address any issues if brought to our attention, but pleased that overall you found our site peaceful and managed to chill out.

Great campsite

A lovely site, very well maintained and very clean. The showers were hot and the owner was extremely helpful. Might be useful to have dryers available to dry wet clothes, towels etc.

Site's response

Thank you very much for taking the time to write us a review. We are delighted that you found our site clean and well maintained and enjoyed our showers. We have looked into the possibility of a dryer but unfortunately with soaring electric prices, the costs are prohibitive.

Will return

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Jaq and Pen very welcoming and accommodating. Will return.

Site's response

So pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to welcoming you back when you are next in the area.

Fabulous stay

Fabulous stay. Owners were approachable and very friendly. Location great for coastal visits and places of interest. Facilities onsite - playground, grassed area for ball games and crazy golf. Male and female showers/toilets, which were clean and warm. 4 female showers, plus a private sink area and never experienced queuing. Large private pitches most have hedge partitions, you can sometimes hear a slight humming of the road in the distance, but not enough to impact the holiday. Set in a rural central location. Would definitely return and recommend.

Site's response

Wow - what a wonderful review. Thank you so much. We are so delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us and had such positive things to say about the campsite. It sounds like you got out and about to explore the wonderful North Norfolk Coastline and enjoyed your time on site. So pleased to hear that even during the busy August holiday you never had to queue for a shower or to wash your pots! We look forward to your next visit….

Worth a visit

A lovely stay and very welcoming owners. Lovely wide pitches. Very friendly site on the family pitches.

Site's response

Thank you for submitting this review. We have tried to ensure our pitches are large enough for everyone to be able to spread out a bit. Our family field has proved an excellent safe environment for the kids to make new friends….hopefully we will see you again in the future.

Fakenham Fairways, excellent all round stay, highly recommended

Fabulous campsite

Fabulous campsite, very clean and well kept. Good facilities and added bonus of crazy golf, driving range and pitch and put on site. The hosts are extremely helpful and friendly. Pitch sizes are large and not overcrowded. There's a lovely play area at the top of the site and large field for ball games. Would highly recommend. We will be back.

Site's response

We love it when campers say they will be back. Thank you! We try really hard to ensure the campsite doesn't feel overcrowded and that our facilities are always clean. Glad you enjoyed a bit of pitch and putt and crazy golf whilst you were here. See you again when you are next in Norfolk.

Fakenham Fairways

A very tidy site and clean facilities ie toilet and shower block...Penny and Jacqui were most accommodating and friendly...Certainly recommend for children with separate field and play area away from oldies like us!!! Would recommend.

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to write a review we really do appreciate it. I don’t think you are the only ones who appreciate the fact that we have a family field and play area for the kids so they have plenty of space to play without disturbing those of us hoping for a quieter time!

Lovely stay

Nice clean site with very friendly owners. Ideal location, clean with lovely hot showers. Nice play area for the little ones and pitch and putt/driving range as part of the site. Would recommend!

Site's response

We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and thank you for your positive words. It really does mean a lot to us. We have refurbished the woman's shower block this year so your comments are appreciated.

Generally excellent

Lovely stay on a large pitch. Loos/showers were lovely. Only improvement could be a later check-in than 6pm but I suspect this could be arranged if asked, as they seemed very accommodating.

Site's response

It was lovely to meet you and we are really glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Yes we are happy for people to arrive after 6pm. We just ask that if its after 8pm we have a discussion so that we can ensure other campers are not disturbed. Hopefully we will see you again if you are in this area.

Relaxing stay

Had a wonderful stay. Greated warmly. Felt safe and secure. Wonderful family site (great for just adults too). The facilities were excellent, clean and comfortable. The pitches were spaced out with plenty of room. Everything is close by. Had fun on the crazy golf & my partner got time to relax in the driving range. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back. Many thanks.
