This is the third and last time we’ve stayed at this site. They used to have an excellent off lead dog walking field well away from any pitches. This is now closed to people staying on the site and the replacement area is adjacent to the camping area with no fence or hedge to separate so dogs have to stay on their leads. They don’t mow the grass on there so it’s ridiculously long and I could barely access the dog poo bins due to the brambles. I had to use the new paid for dog enclosure and that added over £100 to the cost of my holiday! I was told that I could walk to the local park which I did once, but was almost killed by speeding traffic!

The noise was a big issue as I enjoy peace and quiet. There is constant traffic and noise from the sports club, people accessing the dog enclosure and machinery on the race course. There were also two parties with discos at the same time. During our stay no-one cleaned the chemical toilet facility which was filthy. Very disappointed!...Read less.

Clean and tidy site, good walks to town or nearby common. We did have an issue with the showers in the small block, but once reported it was being addressed.

This was our fourth stay and we will definitely stay again....Read less.

We are not regular campers but this was our second weekend at the Fakenham site. It is perfectly situated, a short walk from the town and close to Wells, Holt and other towns. The facilities are great and clean. The site was recommended to us and I have passed on the recommendation to others....Read less.

We stayed at fakenham racecourse for 4 days with our small family. Excellent stay fascilities are spotless clean, showers were nice and warm, very quiet peaceful site. Easy accesses to pitches and site. Very quick and welcoming check-in deffinatly worth a visit....Read less.

This is the first time I'd been to Fakenham campsite in 20 odd years..it's well situated for getting around to see places nearby , great little town of Fakenham close by with a good choice off eateries.

We were a group of 3 in 2 man tents plus a tipi tent for us to sit in whilst the weather was not being unkind.. there wasn't a charge for this so that was refreshing .. the prices we're very reasonable and the facilities were more than adequate and clean which was welcome ..

I rang and spoke to the receptionist when making the booking and she was very friendly and welcoming and upon arrival very helpful in getting us a nice roomy pitch which were were really gratefully for it was perfect ..Thank you Vicky

overall we had a lovely stay. Very quiet and peaceful .

We will be definitely be back ..☺️...Read less.

We booked three nights here with friends in order to explore the north Norfolk coast and it did not disappoint. We could either drive or get the bus from the town centre to various places and then come back to a quiet night's sleep. The showers and toilets were excellent and there is a laundry (although we did not use that). Everyone we met were friendly and helpful and we would have no hesitation in recommending or returning....Read less.

Spacious clean site, very peaceful. Easy check in and out.

Shower blocks were basic but adequate although my partner said the men’s had a stale water smell .

Great field for dog walking . A few more dog bins nearer the pitches would be appreciated as would be the water bowls cleaned and filled . Ideal for what we needed , a short stay , not too far from Holkham Hall....Read less.

We were given a part grass, part road way pitch. When I said that I had booked hard standing was advised that the grass is hard. An optional awning would have been impossible, we wouldn’t have been able to peg into the roadway. Had to have our table and chairs at the end of the van, as opted to park sideways on the grass rather than into the roadway....Read less.

Ideal situation in Norfolk to visit local attractions as all within 30 or so minutes. The site has very good facilities and staff are friendly. Been coming here for the last 20 years or so and will return....Read less.

Having stayed here several times before we knew what to expect; always welcoming, generous pitches well spaced,clean and maintained facilities,friendly professional staff

The site is walking distance from Fakenham town , convenient for coast and selection of pubs and restaurants

Wells next the sea is 10miles with massive sandy beaches,coastal walks and fresh crab on the quay.

Access for caravans and RV’s is excellent as the site has to cater for horse boxes

Vicki and the team do everything to make your stay pleasant and relaxing...Read less.

Located out the way down a small quiet road. Only a 5-10 Minute walk into Fakenham or the excellent garden Centre. Site looked very clean and looked after. Used the Toilets/Showers and the washing up facilities which were all very good. Only complaint were the large flock of Rooks up in the trees behind us, they were very noisy after waking us up at 03.30am! Other than that all good. Thank You....Read less.

Back here again for a stay and the Ladies Day racing. Site and facilities clean on arrival before race day. After race day there was lots of food and drink litter but a large team of workers soon had our pitch tidy and it was so interesting to see the amount of work that goes into race day, both before and after. Staff pleasant and polite. Easy walk into Fakenham for shops and pubs. Lovely to see all the young men dressed smartly as well as their ladies...Read less.

Reception on arrival was polite but not overly friendly or welcoming. The dog walk area has been moved but we weren't told this and the original dog walk is still on the site map. The new area is much smaller and therefore not as good. One of the dog poo bins was overflowing. Shower facilities were clean and the showers were hot and powerful. The washing up room still has little or no hot water - despite years of mentioning this issue. Basically a lovely quiet and peaceful site but could do with a little actual 'management'....Read less.

The site itself is within walking distance to Fakenham town which has a supermarket as well as local cafes, pubs and restaurants.

The pitches are well kept and of a good size for a Campervan and side awning or large tent.

It was misleading to advertise a dog field to arrive and find it was locked and was chargeable if you wanted the code.

The site being a racecourse also hosts evening functions but we were not made aware of this at the time of booking and only via an email a day before we were due to arrive. Prior knowledge would have been better to allow the booker to make the choice of staying there or not. The music did stop at midnight but as campers we are expected to respect others cland stop music etc at 10am - more then reasonable but as a venue, you can allow music up to midnight!

The showers were hot and generally clean but blockages did occur and no one was available to resolve it until the morning.

I would look for an alternative before booking this site again....Read less.

We always stay at Fakenham Racecourse when camping in Norfolk. The location is ideal as its just a short 20 minute drive to Wells but at a much better price. The site is lovely and quiet, the staff are friendly and the facilities are clean with everyday essentials on your doorstep in Fakenham. We'll definitely be back hopefully soon....Read less.

Short stay 2 nights pitch 60. Excellent access for Motorhome to the site and pitch, facilities water/ electric easily accessible and close by for us. Toilet and showers a walk across grass very clean although the shower was too powerful and wet your clothes and towel, same in male and female facilities.unique location being on a racecourse, very quiet when we were there. Walk into town to access bus services, town is your typical market town not a lot evident for tourists. Reception on site very helpful and gave some useful guidance on buses, where to go. Wi-Fi is one of the best for a site....Read less.

Friendly staff, as always. Enjoyed a trip to Wells and a snack at The Nelson cafe at Langham Glass.

Taylor's cafe is excellent too!

Good facilities at the onsite sports centre.

The showers by the Prince of Wales stand would benefit from some refurbishment but still nice and hot....Read less.

Excellent touring park, especially if you want to enjoy a day at the races. We were there for the bank holiday racing and family fun day on the 4th May 2026 which was a brilliant fun family day.

The staff at the racecourse are really friendly and it’s excellent value for money as if you’re there for the racing the cost of your stay includes your entrance fee to the races. It is a short walk in to town perfect for pubs & restaurants.

We will definitely be visiting again....Read less.

Good base to visit all Norfolk coasts buses run

From up by Tesco and go to

Lots of places, campsite is clean and well presented been going here for years also

As the gallows bar on

Site which was better when served food but still good to go for a few sherbets and a chat...Read less.

Site, including the facilities was very clean and tidy. Plenty of space and some nice walks from the site. Plenty to do in the local area, or travel further to the coast. Supermarkets, cafés and a selection of shops all within walking distance from the site. We will definitely return....Read less.

We have stayed here several times in the past and always enjoy returning.

The welcome on arrival was very friendly and pleasant, the site well kept and maintained.

The services were all working without any issue.

We enjoy coming here, staying so close to the racecourse,

close to the town, but very much in the countryside....Read less.

Although we arrived at lunchtime so no staff were present our paperwork was left out for us. We went to our allocated pitch were we found the area to be full of discarded cigarette butts and general litter. After cleaning our pitch we tried to erect our awning but discovered that even trying to use heavy duty specialist pegs the ground was like concrete and impossible to erect our awning.

It would have been nice if site staff took the time to have a daily walk round to see if everything was ok and just a friendly hello.

We stayed for 3 nights and not once did I see a member of the site staff....Read less.

Good location near to the town centre within easy walking distance. The camp site is on the racecourse. Good facilities including clean toilets and showers although the 3 showers need to be larger as it’s difficult to keep clothes dry in the small cubicles. Only a couple of hooks to hang your dry clothes and in the larger shower cubicle the shower head can spray any clothes that are hung on the hooks.

Fakenham town is small but Taylor’s cafe is great for breakfast and lunch. A visit to Sculthorpe Moor nature reserve is highly recommended- only c3miles from the racecourse....Read less.

We have stayed at Fakenham Racecourse many times and will continue to do so. We find it a quiet and relaxing site although it is obviously busier during peak times. We enjoy the walk into the town and once there we often take the bus into Wells next the Sea, or Holt. There is also a pleasant walk along the river. The site and facilities are clean and well looked after. Vicky who runs the office is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful....Read less.

Staff are friendly and the facilities are clean and tidy. It is a well kept site

Also on the site is a club house with a bar where you can watch indoor bowls as well as having a drink They allow dogs too which is a bonus. Another plus if you come for the horse racing is if you stay for more than 2 days you get free tickets fir race day...Read less.

Another lovely winter stay at the Racecourse. As ever site easy to access, toilets and showers spotless, staff very helpful and friendly. Local pubs and restaurants good food and reasonably priced. Good bus services from town centre to coast Norwich and Hunstanton Will return again....Read less.

As the name suggests the site's primary function is a racecourse, that said it is nevertheless a good camping and caravanning spot in the heart of Norfolk. The facilities are good with clean toilets and washrooms, hard standing, electric hookups and water access. The grey water disposal point at the entrance is a little tricky involving the lifting of a manhole cover. Dog walking is excellent with a large field at the rear of the site. Access to the town involves a 15 minute walk along an unlit road with a 20 mile an hour speed limit which is largely disregarded. Fakenham itself is a small market town with a selection of reasonable pubs and restaurants . On this occasion we used the location to attend the afternoon matinee performance at the Thursford Christmas variety show which was fantastic. We often use the site to access Sheringham the country park and Cromer some 30 minutes drive away....Read less.

We have stayed before in May and thought the site was great. We stayed again last week and again the site was good. Just a recommendation is more lighting in evening and maybe a path across the grass to the toilet block....Read less.

We have used the site before so knew what to expect and we were not disappointed ,when phoning to make the booking the staff were very polite and helpful and when we arrived on site again the staff were friendly and welcoming....Read less.

Lovely clean showers and toilets, lots of hot water showers and wash basins. Nice walk along river to town, ( wonderful fish and chip shop) Love Fakenham site as staff are lovely and friendly and pitches are lovely and big, Thankyou....Read less.

Brilliant, site has everything and all 5 star, also the gallows pub on site with a indoor bowls rink with national players on show,

Golf course, tennis courts and squash courts, even a darts board.

Well worth a visit and if you fancy a game of any of the above just take your equipment as we did and book a court , ring etc.

Thankyou...Read less.

Location great for the races, facilities clean and bright, would like a family or disabled room with shower and toilet. Quiet and relaxing. Staff are excellent, very helpful and friendly. Great value for money....Read less.

Good quality site and easy to find. It’s in an excellent location for visiting surrounding areas. There is considerable history in the area.

The facilities are excellent and cleaned every day and all staff a friendly. As a dog owner there is considerable space to walk the dog. The deal I had for my 4 month stay was superb and I hope for next year there is no price hike. I would certainly recommend staying at this site....Read less.

Good campsite for a bace for sightseeing.

Excellent showers which also accommodate people with disabilities.

Ground nice and even and pegs easily hammered in

Lovely 15 minute walk into centre for restraints and pubs.

The only small criticism is no lighting at night when going to toilet.

Great for dogs as has a large dog field.

Has a tennis court and golf course...Read less.
