Pictures of the snow at Clippesby at
Easter. Thank you to Gill, Malc, Phil and Suzanne
(Mullenger) for sending them to us.
The new season is here at Clippesby and
after a very snowy Easter we are now open for touring and
camping right through until the end of October, so there
should be plenty of time for you to visit and enjoy the
unique atmosphere provided by the park and its location in
the heart of the Broads National Park.
GOING…..GOING……!
Pitches around the camping and touring
park are already filling up fast, so don’t delay if you
would like to reserve your favourite spot, especially if you
prefer the Cedar Lawn, the Pine Woods or the Heath, as these
areas are proving so popular we think pitches may well soon
be changing hands on Ebay!
CLIPPESBY GOES ON TOUR – MEET THE TEAM
The 14th-16th March saw us at the OS
Outdoors Show in Birmingham at the NEC. Located on the
Norfolk stand in Hall One, right next to the rope climbing
arena, we had a fantastic weekend. Thanks to everyone who
came to say hello – it was much appreciated. For those not
there, it is well worth a visit next year, as there is
everything for the outdoor enthusiast whether you camp,
walk, cycle, canoe, or just like being outside, along with
great speakers and activities to try. For more information

TENT FOR
A TENNER
During April, and remembering the mini-heatwave
we experienced last year, we have come up with a special
basic pitch price of just £10 per night (Sunday to Thursday)
or £16 per night at weekends. Why not come and explore the
Broads in springtime and avoid the crowds of summer. To book
online, visit our website at

BEER IN
THE BROADS
The Autumn
Beer Festival, a popular and regular event at
Clippesby, will be held on 5th to 7th September this year.
Based in a marquee in the old walled garden, and with local
band ‘The Relicks’ booked once again to round off the
weekend, this event has developed its own unique relaxed and
family friendly atmosphere. Lee is promising an even more
varied selection of Norfolk ales this year, and with pitches
already being booked (yes, really!) now is the time to pop
this in your diary.
FESTIVAL
OF THE BROADS
Following on from last year, our
Festival of the Broads will take place from 12th to
21st September, a week-long celebration of the special
qualities of the Broads National Park. With a number of
special events happening around the Broads, including our
own treasure hunt, adventure cycle ride, special Broads Ale
& Cider tasting and showcase for local craft and food
producers, there promises to be something for everyone.

events available please visit our website

(RE)DISCOVER
THE BROADS

National Park, Discover the Broads, is currently undergoing

adding new days out to the website as soon as we can, all
fully ‘road-tested’ by our team and including more walking,
cycling and canoeing ideas. Keep an eye on the website
