Just a note to say thanks for the excellent way my wife and I were treated at our recent stay at Clippesby Hall. Your staff made our stay so memorable from our first contact by phone until departing - this letter is to express our thanks to all your staff and to let you know that good service is always appreciated.

Mr & Mrs R Clark

I am writing to say how much we enjoyed our weeks stay at Clippesby Hall. The chalet we stayed in was very comfortable with everything we needed - it was also very clean and well presented for our arrival.

Mr & Mrs J Healey

We just wanted to say thank you for a fantastic holiday once again. We love it at Clippesby and the cottage was beautiful.

Mr & Mrs Taylor

Many many thanks for such a wonderful weeks holiday. As usual such a high standard and personal attention - such a pleasure to know you all. Many congratulations to you all on your award.

Mr & Mrs B Smith

Thank you so much for a great summer holiday. Despite the inclement weather we had a fabulous time. Your site management is superb, we must commend you on the cleanliness of the site, the friendliness of your staff and their local knowledge.

Mr & Mrs K Jones

I felt I had to write to congratulate you all on a wonderful place you have at Clippesby Hall. This is our first time visiting you as well as camping. We all enjoyed our visit, just a pity about the weather but it hasn't put us off and we will be back again.

The Warne Family

I have to write to thank everyone of you for giving us such a wondeful holiday. The atmosphere was so friendly and everyone was so helpful. We will be back!

Mr L Vaughan

A Lovely cottage, clean and well maintained. Beautiful setting and a great base to explore the surrounding area. Very safe for the children. So impressed we are revisiting this year and bringing relatives along.

Mrs Powell

Thanks for a super weekend, please give our thanks to all of your staff and thank them, because without their smiling faces and the grand welcome they give holidaymakers it would not have been as good as it was.

Mr & Mrs McGuinness

We have camped since we were a young engaged couple and have now been married 27 years! Never have we enjoyed such a wonderful fortnights annual holiday in our tent than the one we spent at Clippesby last summer! Both the site, staff and wonderful surroundings made this THE PERFECT place to be !

P & S Burl

Well done to you on winning the AA Campsite of the Year! It is absolutely well deserved. We love the atmosphere, layout and facilities at the site and have booked to return with friends this year for our third visit. Roll on July !

J Wright

We have had caravanning holidays at Clippesby for 24 years! This year we stayed in one of the Pine Lodges and yet again we had a wonderful week. See you gain soon.

Mr & Mrs Hoy

We had a wonderful time, the campsite isn’t over crowded, we were still finding places we hadn’t explored when we left after 5 days! We had so much fun we are back for more next year. Thank you for contributing to a lovely holiday.

B Dias

I just wanted to pass on our thanks for the fantastic weekend at your great site and say that we thoroughly enjoyed the Beer Festival and hope to be back next year. Let us know when you are taking bookings and we will get in quick!

The Ward family

On arrival we received the most friendly and information welcome we have ever had! The staff were always helpful, the facilities were excellent, clean and well maintained and we loved the fact you have recycling points everywhere. The crazy golf and laundry machines were reasonably priced and the pizzas and croissants were … FABULOUS !

Mr & Storton

I wanted to say thank you for special treatment by the staff at Clippesby. We have 2 young children with special needs and with this our first attempt at camping we were unsure if the children would take to it. Thanks to your fantastic site they did and we will be back next year.

P & D Adams

Thanks once again for a fantastic weeks camping with the family. We have been coming to Clippesby for the past 5 years and have never found another campsite that can offer the unique experience that you do. Fantastic pitches everyone is so friendly and the kids have made so many friends who like to return each year. A campsite that offers everything but is not over commercialised. Well done all of you, 100% recommended.

The Harper Family

I just wanted to send a quick email to say how much we enjoyed our weekend in Pine Lodge 3 earlier in the month. Although we'd only had to travel 20 mins from Norwich, Clippesby's beautiful surroundings and tranquillity made us feel we were miles away from any civilisation - and the lodge itself was just gorgeous. It was the perfect relaxing and revitalising tonic to a dreary January and we look forward to coming again next year!

Sarah Cassells

I would just like to say what a wonderful holiday me and my family had at your fabulous campsite! All the staff were extremely polite, friendly and very welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. The facilities we excellent and the new play park was an added bonus!!

Kim Hayward

Although this wasn't our first stay at Clippesby it was our first visit to the beer festival weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole weekend. There was a great atmosphere and we really enjoyed the band on Saturday night. We have to commend all the staff who were friendly and helpful even though they were very busy. Have already booked again for next year!

Mrs N Pantry

Simply the best! Spotlessly clean and really comfortable, friendly and helpful staff, superb service, attention to detail, great food AND the best sloe gin in the known universe! Could not ask for more. See you next year! (Hugs for Casper)

Helen, Sue & Ali

Last year we stayed in a lodge, this year we camped. Site although full was not crowded and was lovely and quiet at night. Lots of space and convenience of Muskett Arms and Susies were fab!

H. Uden

As this was our first visit we didn't no what to expect, however we were pleasantly surprised when we discovered the high standards of all aspects of the park. It’s astonishing that we hadn't discovered this friendly, peaceful and relaxing site before. The staff were polite and would happily help with any queries we had. From our stay we will defiantly be returning in the near future.

Carol Beck

I would just like to thank you all for the wonderful holiday my family had last week. The staff were extremely friendly and the campsite was immaculate. The weather wasn't the greatest, but hey ho, who cares with a campsite as great as yours! We hope to return next year.

Mr A Seddon

Just a quick note to say that we had a wonder fun filled stay with you! Everything has been super, from the freshly baked bread in the morning to the family disco on Friday evening. All the staff have been very helpful and are so well mannered, you should be proud of them - they are great (very rare these days!)

The Slater Family

I just wanted to ssay how much my wife, son and dog enjoyed staying at Clippesby over the bank holiday (despite the weather!) The campsite was fantastic and really well looked after which made for a very enjoyable stay. We could not manage to do half the things we would have liked so I am sure we will be back.

Mr M Dalzell

Simply the best! Spotlessly clean and really comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff, superb service, attention to detail , great food and the best sloe gin in the known universe! Couldn't ask for more. See you next year.

Helen, Sue & Ali

If you enjoyed your stay at Clippesby then we would appreciate if you could tell others.

Press Quotes

Country Living
 
“First timers should look no further than this large site in the grounds of a manor house. Short of camping in your own garden, this is as easy as it gets with a swimming pool, grass tennis courts, and a pub onsite, yet it is all arranged with charm and taste.“

The Guardian
 

“The best thing about this site is the delightful use of ‘greenery’, there’s an abundance of trees, shrubs and well-kept grass here. It’s a complex of campsites all rolled into one, with Beatrix Potter-type names such as ‘The Rabbits Grove’ (you get lots here) and ‘The Dell’. Loads for kids to do, but perhaps not the place for campers seeking splendid isolation.

Being based within the broadlands of Norfolk you are well placed to anything and everything ‘boaty’ and you can take seal spotting tours nearby. Clippesby is also part of the Broads Cycle Network and there are route maps for trails from 8km to 24km.“

The Sunday Times
 
“Clippesby Hall is like a self-contained little village. Set in the grounds of a small, odd looking manor house, it has everything a family could possibly want, and more besides. Given that it has 100 pitches (many with electrical hook ups), an outdoor swimming pool, grass tennis courts, mini golf, self-catering cottages, pine lodges and a family pub, you might assume it is as quiet and peaceful as a night on the hard shoulder of the A12. Well you’d be wrong. Somehow, the owner has managed to incorporate all those facilities into the grounds of his family home whilst retaining its unique relaxed character.”

Evening Standard
 

“Camping was once the preserve of boy scouts, hippies and pensioners towing rusty caravans, but now it has been officially declared cool by travel writer Jonathan Knight.

Clippesby Hall, Norfolk is set in manicured grounds of a small manor house. Perfect for exploring the Broads National Park.”

Daisy Green Magazine
 
"Clippesby Hall, in the heart of Norfolk, provides the perfect holiday destination for families who want more entertainment from their camping holiday. As well as swimming pools, tennis courts and bicycles for hire, there is plenty fun to be had offsite exploring the waterways of the Norfolk Broads and at the nearby Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens."
