Clippesby Hall Reviews

First time visiting and will definitely be returning

Me and my partner decided to make a last-minute booking during the weekend predicted with heavy rain and 50 mile an hour winds. Perfect location, sheltered from the wind, great clubhouse and all-round fantastic place.

First class

Can't fault it, brilliant.

Perfect stay

This park is wonderful, the photos on the website don't show just how beautiful it is and Basecamp is very good and much bigger than the photos suggest. The food is so good with huge portions and very friendly staff. My only complaint would be the bin area by the tents as they were over full and smelly, also the toilets weren't as clean as ones nearer Basecamp. The facilities are great and we are already planning our next visit.

Excellent, the best I've been to

Great facilities, service and an overall beautiful place. Dog-friendly great restaurant and in good distance from coast resorts.

Our first trip out in our campervan

Having not camped for a number of years, we did not know what to expect. The booking team were excellent and had booked a site near the facilities, as John is 80 and not that mobile. The pitch was lovely and large and the whole site was so well cared for and the washrooms were some of the cleanest I have ever seen in the UK. The cleaners were so good and so caring- thank you all. I was unaware of how big the site was until I walked around, but there was no noise after 10pm and the help we got was incredible. We ate in the restaurant on Thursday and the food and service were again excellent. Thank you all for making our first trip out so special, we will be back.

First time at Clippsbey

Great couple of days spent. Lovely site, enough to do to keep our kids (8 & 10) entertained (they loved the zip lines). Clean, well presented. Take ear plugs because you're in the woods and birds wake up very early! Truly lovely location. Not enough staff at the club house (but were actively advertising for staff). Will visit again.

Great site, would definitely return

Great site, beautiful location and is well maintained. Staff very helpful.

Excellent site, possibly the best we have ever used.

The pitch was perfect, private and large enough for caravan, car and awning, with space also to sit outside to enjoy the sunshine and birdsong. The amenities were spotless and spacious. Basecamp served good quality food for a reasonable price and had a good choice of drinks. The cakes were yummy too. Clippesby is a great base for exploring the Broads and also to investigate further but you can happily stay on site and wander through the woods or have a go at golf. We would recommend this site to anyone visiting the area and plan to return as 5 nights was not really long enough.

Lovely campsite for the long weekend

We had a great stay here for the long weekend, despite the inconsistent weather! The pitches are spacious and well laid out, with plenty of open space. They also had trees/bushes to separate different areas. The site was peaceful, with lots of birds to be heard in the early hours of the morning! It was also very family friendly and there were many facilities such as a restaurant, shop and play equipment. The toilets/showers were clean and located a short walk from our pitch, although the closest block was closed for maintenance. We had a nice meal at the restaurant, we had to sit outside with our dog but luckily it was a lovely evening! We also visited some of the local attractions including a woodland and the beach. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Lovely campsite

Can't wait to go back in August, well chilled out now. Highly recommended for a good holiday.

Tranquility

Pitch was fantastic and the shower blocks and toilets were immaculate. Loads of outdoor space for the children and puppy to explore. Highly recommended 👌

Amazing

I'm coeliac and wasn't expecting to be able to eat out safely, however the food in the bar/restaurant was amazing and the staff were so accommodating (especially Ruby, special thanks to you!) and reassuring when it came to my dietary requirements. The staff were also mega helpful in general and any enquiries I had were swiftly answered. They made my first ever stay in a caravan very enjoyable and I'd highly recommend it to anyone. It's also close to a couple of pubs and some lovely scenic walks and the facilities on site are fab. Overall, amazing!!

Superb, quiet location

Great little location just outside Acle with easy Broads access. Restaurant and bar onsite, although menu is a more "little chef" than anything. Go to any of the pubs locally for gourmet food. Good service and attitude from all staff. Will go back.

Very nice site

Lovely site in the woods. Very nice showers, better than any I've seen before. Staff very helpful. Only complaint is the launderette. The cost of the washing machine is fair at £3.50 but to charge £1.00 for only 8 minutes in the dryer is a lot. I ended up spending £15.00 on one load of washing and still had to hang things in the caravan overnight to finish drying.

Site's response

Thank you for your feedback Denise, you're very kind to note the premises and facilities, we are glad you like them. The Launderette costs do indeed seem high. I will look into the tumble dryer cycle and check for a fault. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I would expect clothes to be dry for less money. If you return at some point, please reference our conversation and if we find the machines to be calibrated incorrectly, we can reimburse the difference. Lee

Great site

Excellent site, just a little far out.

Fantastic, like living in the forest

Really loved the feeling of being in the forest. The dog loved her walks and was super happy to smell out where the rabbits had been, there was lots of nature to enjoy! Restaurant was very clean and food looked lovely - a little expensive, but good quality. There is an outside area to sit under cover, even blankets and doggie beds so you can have a drink and a meal while still bringing your pooch along. Definitely will be going again and again.

Really enjoyed our stay

Loved our two-night stay in a motorhome. Spacious and clean with a lovely bar and restaurant and surrounded by woods. Kids enjoyed the spooky crazy golf, bike trail and the zip slides.

Everything was good

Everything was good at Clippesby Hall, however, it would be nice if the bar opened up to 9pm rather than 8pm.

A quick visit

Beautiful place, wonderfully kept. We would certainly book again at a quiet time of year, like we just did.

A lovely quiet site

Really good site with plenty of walks for your 4 legged friend. Would go again if we were closer to toilets etc as I have mobility problems so was too far to walk every time I wanted the toilet.

Lovely local break

Beautiful place. Setting is amazing. Base Camp is just as everyone says - and serves really good coffee along with delicious meals. Friendly staff. Pitches are lovely and big.

Super relaxing

This is a fabulous place, very relaxing and extremely well run. Stephen and his team in Basecamp deserve particular praise. Nothing is too much trouble, the food is of a very high standard and all freshly cooked. Well done.

Fantastic stay at our new favourite campsite

My partner and I stayed for three nights in a tent in mid-September. We were visiting in the quiet season and felt very fortunate to have an entire field to ourselves! The staff on reception were very welcoming and let us have our pick of pitch, and provided a map of the site. The facilities were fantastic - incredibly clean bathrooms, a spacious BASECAMP cafe/bar with plenty of seating and wall sockets to charge phones, a cafe selling essentials and snacks, a mini golf course, tennis courts and zip lines! The staff in the BASECAMP were lovely as well - they remembered our drink orders, and reunited my partner with his lost book! It was a great location from which to explore Norfolk by car. We've recommend the site to friends and family and can't wait to come back again.
