Excellent site with plenty of space, facilities are also excellent and clean.
Its a great place to stay and use as a base if visiting Norfolk, within easy reach of superstores and A47.
However, the White House Farm Village shops were not open on Sunday and Monday on a Bank Holiday weekend, this didnt affect our stay but was a bit of a disappointment.
Overall a good site and would definitely use again.

Excellent site. Good clean facilities and plenty of space, ideal base if visiting Norwich and surrounding areas.
However, White House Farm Village shops were closed saturday and sunday on a bank holiday weekend which while it didnt affect us was a bit disappointing.

We have a lovely stay at Plum Camping, really close to Norwich, but firmly in the country, and having a farm shop and cafe next door was amazing

Nice campsite just outside of Norwich with lovely orchards surrounding it. Great value to get real toilets, hot shower and fridges etc at this price point. Will definitely be back!

A lovely, quiet, basic site. Has all the necessities like flushing toilets and hot showers, but not much else. Fire pits with cooking grills free to use, seasoned firewood available to purchase. 2 minute walk to farm shop for fresh meat and veg, or supermarket 5 mins drive up the road. Plenty of space to set up, no restrictions on pitches, just a general expectation of being courteous to other campers. Grass cut to a good level, ground mostly flat. Would definitely return. Great value site.

Sadly the weather was shocking for our trip and there were only another couple of campers so after battling with our set-up in high winds after enjoying a fabulous coffee and cake in the farm shop cafe in arrival (beautiful shop and cafe) - we finally were about to have a brew outdoors and take in the lovely orchards that became our view. Sadly the winds kept getting stronger and as the sun was going down we made the decision not to stay as the winds were only going to get stronger. Also lack of other campers and morale to keep us going we left and headed home. Nice facilities, toilets were clean and washing/cleaning set up looks good and loved the area that held the fridge and charging points. Just a shame the UK weather let us down - for our very first camping trip.

We had a fabulous night here. Lovely, quiet field with plenty of space. The toilets and showers were very clean. No light pollution at all-great for star gazing.
There were fire pits to hire and wood if we needed it.
Lovely dog walks from the camp and a good local pub nearby.
Peter and his wife were super friendly and incredibly helpful. We will definitely be back!

I had a beautiful peaceful night camping with my van in Archers Field. I was very fortunate to have the whole site to myself, sharing it with the owls, kingfisher, ducks, robins and blackbirds and all the other creatures. Great location and clean facilities. Will be going back for sure!

My grandchildren and I have stayed at Brakehill Lodge Farm twice. It has proved to be our happy place. Peaceful, and just remote enough to escape the madding crowd.
Clare is a considerate host. She loves her home and all the nature it encompasses.
Try it...you will love ir too.😀

Lovely site with very clean facilities. Extra bonus was using the fire pit. Also a very nice looking butchers and cafe on site.
The only down side was the noise on the Saturday night. The camp is not staffed and the gate is left open. At 2:30am there was a lot of noise coming from a group of other campers who had arrived back late. This included noise from cars with one car in particular driving very fast around the field. To say this was unsettling would be an understatement as it was difficult to know if this person may have been under the influence of alcohol due to the speed and also the fear of the car ploughing into a tent. There is a notice up saying no noise after 10pm however this was obviously ignored. The Sunday night was much quieter except for the early morning wake up call from a couple of military aircraft at 6:30am!
I would happily visit this site again if I were to visit the area it’s just a shame that one group of people couldn’t respect other campers.

Great campsite, lots of people around but not too busy. Charging area and freezer really useful. Clean toilets and well maintained. The showers were lovely. Peaceful location, beautiful countryside and lots of wildlife sounds after dark. The Broads close by and beach around half an hour away.
