Booked for one night but stayed for two. We loved the peaceful rural location, but access to the town with a 15 minute walk was a great addition. The short walk along the stream was lovely. There is a large dog walking field for those who need one too.

Staff were very friendly and helpful, facilities were clean and plentiful… the only thing I could think of for improvement. with great effort, was that another washing up facility would be nice. The one near reception was very well equipped, and we only had to use it when cooking a full meal, but think when there were more tents, another one would be useful. Of course it maybe that there is one I didn't see it.

We will definitely stay again....Read less.

Love this site. Friendly helpful staff as always. Can't wait to book our next stay. The town is walkable ( 10 minutes). Try to include a Thursday for the market. Buses from town centre to Cromer, Wells, Norwich and Kings Lynn. You won't find friendlier people anywhere. The shopkeepers actually talk to you. Easy wide access to the site with spacious plots. 2 X toilet/shower blocks which are kept spotless....Read less.

Immaculate shower / toilet blocks, friendly helpful staff, and a spacious out in the country feel, yet a 10 minute riverside walk into a charming market town with a good selection of shops, plus 4 supermarkets.

I have been a regular visitor for almost 40 years, and hope for many more....Read less.

We always enjoy our stays at Fakenham, facilities are always very clean, staff friendly and helpful. This time we parked on the edge of the racecourse and had sun all day around us. Very quiet and lots of wildlife - daily visits of deer, hares playing, pheasants and lots of birds which were very entertaining. Quick car ride to Wells and fish and chips and short walk to the town for Thursday market day...Read less.

I always try to stay the night of a race day as I don’t have to drive home afterwards, although I only live in Newmarket. The next day it is only a short ten mile drive to the North Norfolk coast.

The staff are always so helpful and friendly and go out of their way to make sure I like the pitch they suggest.

With soaring costs on some sites Fakenham us still very reasonable....Read less.

We stayed two nights at the Fakenham racecourse in our motorhome to enjoy racing. Camping fees included tickets to go in and the overall package was good value for money. Toilet and shower facilities were very clean and spacious. Only drawback is you need to move your vehicle on raceday by 9.00 am and move it back after racing if you arr staying an other night.

Overall I would recommend the site whivh is also a 15 min walk to the town of Fakenham....Read less.

The staff are always friendly and helpful, wash blocks are good standard and cleaned with care daily.

We walked up into Fakenham and enjoyed a meal in "A Taste of Thai".

We usually time our visit to include market day, and often take the bus to Wells-next-the-Sea or other place on the coast...Read less.

Site and facilities very clean and tidy. Staff very friendly and helpful. We were lucky that the weekend during our visit hosted as Point to Point race meeting and we were given free entry tickets although the racing cost us £16 via a bookmaker. Very entertaining. Nice site to visit and the Town is just a short walk away. Will definitely use again....Read less.

Enjoyed an 8 night stay here. Lovely warm welcome on arrival. Quiet, well kept site with a clean toilet and shower block. All facilities a short walk from our hardstanding pitch. Easy to reach attractions like Wells-next-the-sea, Felbrigge Hall, Sandringham etc. Plenty of supermarkets in town and good quality pub restaurants within reasonable driving distance....Read less.

We have returned year after year as Fakenham Racecourse is a brilliant base for visiting Wells, Holkham, Sherringham and other coastal towns on the Norfolk Coast.

The local buses service runs regularly to these areas and is only a short walk into the town. Fakenham has all the supermarkets you require with Tesco's again a short walk from the site into town. A very good large market runs on Thursdays and there are many pleasant river walks close by.

Adjacent to the site is a very good bar serving food and a small leisure centre whereby you are able to book various activities, Tennis, Golf, Squash, Indoor bowls etc.

The staff are always friendly and very helpful. The various caravan/camping areas are served by modern clean toilets and showers. The site is a mixture of hard standing and grass and are well spaced out and generally flat all with electric hook-ups. There is also a large tenting area. You have a good dog walking area with ample dog bins for the use of....Read less.

This campsite as excellent facilities and l would definitely recommend it .its a nice short walk to a lovely town centre which as everythink you need weatherspoons Tesco's and takeaways. The surrounding walks are nice for dog walkers alongside a golf course and river we will definitely be back also there is a nice club onsite for meals and drinks surrounding the racecourse ....Read less.

Good hard standing pitch, sheltered from wind and rain by large hedge, with water and electric on pitch. Check in and out was all good, helpful staff, good site map. Easy walk into town and buses. Only downside was the loo block - a bit dirty I thought on arrival due to it being race day, but didn’t look a huge amount better after cleaning. Floor ing etc is very tired and needs replacing. We had the option of showering in our van....Read less.

We visit Fakenham at least two / three times a year and once again the site didn’t disappoint, the facilities are always immaculate, everyone is so friendly and its location means a short walk into town....Read less.

We found the campsite lovely but not the tent field, we had to camp under trees fulls of very noisy birds and ended up sleeping in our car in another part of the site and decided to go home so didn’t stay for the racing on the bank holiday Monday, it has a lovely club house and short walk to the town which we enjoyed....Read less.

Have stayed at this campsite many times and love the open space and the clean and showers and toilets it is just a short walk in to the town and me and my wife love all the shops and pups to eat and drink in hope to get back to the site again later in the year...Read less.

The site is good but they have an event hall which is hired out for party's. The Saturday night we where on the site the party finished at 1.15 with the bar emptying bottles into the bin with no respect for the caravan site.

People outside all evening shouting and the site used as a car park.

The next day i raised it with the office and they said sorry and would refund me a nights camp. But still have not heard anything.

They did say they have no control over party's....Read less.

Friendly staff, good location, great bus service, pleasant walk into town, good spacings, present views, all good.

One suggestion, pitch 34 & 35 don't appear to get TV reception. Not an issue for me as we have a stand alone satellite dish, but worth considering a TV booster point for this run of pitches.

They were two cable female type connectors on the power post, but not sure what these do, and they wont fit a standard male tv connectors....Read less.

Location was perfect for us for travelling around North Norfolk. The amenities were excellent and the team were very helpful and friendly. There was an issue on the first day with no hot water but the team got this resolved. Overall really impressed and will be returning....Read less.

We have stayed many times, it a lovely clean scenic and friendly site.

A very good bus service from town which is a 10min walk, to wells and many other coastal locations.

The town itself has a few shops and pubs and takeaways....Read less.

Another perfect stay. I stayed after racing, although I only live in Newmarket , it’s so lovely to enjoy the last race and look forward to visiting the coast the next day.

Showers and toilets immaculate as ever, lovely friendly staff in the office, can’t wait to return!...Read less.

Stayed here between Christmas and new year 2022. Check in was quick and efficient, staff very friendly. We used the sports bar onsite for drinks and again the staff were very friendly. Shower/toilet block very clean and presentable. The walk into Fakenham was about 10 minutes via a shortcut along the river. Will definitely use the site again...Read less.

We booked in very last minute, having changed sites, originally just for one night. Vicki and the guys were so helpful. They even managed to squeeze us in for the following night, which was really busy as it was the new year and they had a race meeting on as well. We decided to stay the rest of the time there as well, again, no problem.

The pitch (hardstanding 8m+) was massive compared to some we have experienced elsewhere, giving a good distance to your neighbour. The facilities were clean, warm and all worked well. Very peaceful and only 15mins walk to Fakenham centre. Overall, good value for money and excellent service from the team there....Read less.

Very easy site from which to stroll into the town that has a normal range of retail shops + a few 'craft' type ones.

several pubs and restaurants all within walking distance.

site shares entrance with the racecourse and the local golf club...Read less.

We have stayed here several times before as open all year and a good winter retreat. You need to ensure there is no racing when you book, as you have to move to another area if there is. A pleasant walk into town using a short cut through the wood, but can be muddy. Market day on Thursday with an auction as well. The facilities are always clean and tidy and there is a motorhome point for grey waste and fresh fill. Quick and easy to book and pay online....Read less.

Stayed at Fakenham Racecourse in a campervan at the end on November. The washrooms were warm and the showers were hot enough. The meals at the Gallow club were good, filling and reasonably priced.

We were parked in front of the main stand so had a good view but the van was full of tiny stones by the time we left.

The drive over waste was very tight to a wall and the opening to the drain was only about 20cm diameter.

The general layout looked good but due to the weather we didn't really investigate further than necessary....Read less.

A very pleasant setting, neatly laid out with good size hardstanding pitches around the edge. The facilities are clean and well maintained with easy access to water, drainage and chemical disposal points. There's plenty of electric hook ups too. The staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome.

It's just a short walk along the river Wensum into the town with plenty of shops restaurants etc....Read less.

Even though the weather was not on our side, rained from start to finish, the site was excellent. Catered for all our needs. Toilets, showers etc were clean and comfortable. With the racecourse being right there was a bonus. The walk into Fakenham was pleasant and very handy to get to. We thoroughly enjoyed and will definately be returning....Read less.

Site was very quiet but we enjoyed it.

Hard standing pitches were spacious. Grass ones weren’t marked out but looked tight.

Tho wouldn’t necessarily put us off as would request hard standing pitch.

Plenty in area to visit and would come back. Believe it’s our 3rd/4th visit and never had any issues....Read less.

We have stayed at Fakenham racecourse on many occasions. Fakenham is a convenient base for us as we are keen bird watchers. We can reach anywhere along the north Norfolk coast within half an hour or so. The site is beautifully managed and we were very impressed with how clean the toilet and shower block is kept, my partner Fran actually commented to the staff at the reception how impressed she was. We have recommended this site in the past and will continue to do so. The staff are always extremely helpful.

The site is lovely and tidy, showers and toilets are wonderful and clean. Our pitch was at the top end as our cat Ellie was travelling with us, lovely quiet pitch Thank you. Walk into town takes about 20 minutes which is a lovely walk through woods and next to river. Thank you for a wonderful stay and will see you all again soon, and a Big Thank you to staff who were all lovely and friendly....Read less.

At this time of year, after a summer of touring different regions for weeks on end in our campervan, we sought a short stay place with EHU (normally sufficient on our solar power), close to a town centre. This site offered easy access to both the centre and riverside.

Campsites offer more facilities than we need usually, so when on site it’s shower/toilet facilities that are most attractive. Sadly at Fakenham Racecourse they close for cleaning at the most popular time 8-10am, causing us to delay our outing till much later than preferred. Surely cleaning is best done after busiest time at 10am?

Sunshine in October is much appreciated so the hard standing plots were in the shade of the high hedge, so we moved to 52 from 58 in the dark corner....Read less.

We visit Fakenham regularly, apart from being a lovely caravan /campsite clean facilities , well kept and spaced pitches. The team are friendly, helpful and professional. If you enjoy horse racing it is an added bonus being able to enjoy the race meeting. The site itself is great for dogs and you can see wildlife in abundance. There is the gallows sport centre/club on site where you can enjoy a drink / meal or its a short walk into Fakenham where you have more eateries, shops and buses....Read less.

Beautifully kept site with first class toilet and shower blocks. Warm welcome and very well organised. We booked so we were there for a race meet. All units have to move on the race day but no hardship. Will definitely return....Read less.

First impressions greated by friendly staff and the site was well looked after Showers and toilet block was kept to very high standard with plenty of hot water. Easy walk into town for supplies or to eat out. Moving our motorhome on race day was easy and nice to pop back between races. We also walked round the racecourse and again found all staff very friendly and knowledgeable about racing.

We will definitely be coming to this site again...Read less.

This site is perfect for a relaxing and pleasant holiday or short break. All required facilities when caravanning/motorhoming we readily to hand and of the highest standard in cleanliness and accessibility.

The surrounding area of the Nofolk Coast is is easily accessible by public transport from the centre of Fakenham which is a short 10 minute walk from the site...The whole area is very flat and easy to navigate for everyone and has a n impressive range of shops ,markets, beaches and country walks a d wildlife. The staff at site were very friendly and helpful and made the stay most enjoyable. Horse racing was good too.

Will definitely return to this site to explore Norfolk more....Read less.

Lovely well tended site, great toilets and showers. Lovely walks close by. Good welcome pack. Excellent staff and all withing 10miles of wells next the sea, Holkham Hall, Walsingham and a myriad or Lovely villages. What can I say in the words of Arnie I'll be back.......Read less.

From the entry to the site right of the main road is so easy, to the reception to book in was excellent, the hard standing pitch was nice and level and all facilities very clean and looked after very well. The club house for the sports center which is licensed plus a restaurant is available to us all who is on site and the food is wonderful. Plus its only a 10min walk into town....Read less.

All the staff on the site were helpful and friendly. There are a variety of pitches to choose from. Overlooking the race course gives a feeling of space. On site showers, toilets and washing-up are clean and easy to access. The site is within walking distance of Fakenham where there are a variety of shops and pubs (including Wetherspoons). From the site there plenty of cycle rides around country lanes and many interesting villages, churches, historic sites and wild life. Holkham Hall and Wells-next-the Sea are not too far to cycle. In the surrounding area there are farm shops selling local products including a variety of locally made cheese. There is at least one local brewer of beer and a number of shops selling wonder ales. A very relaxing site but for those who enjoy food, drink and the outdoors a great place....Read less.

This is now the second time we have spent a weekend at Fakenham Racecourse Campsite, and just like last year enjoyed it very much.

The town of Fakenham, although not what might be described as "buzzing" was only a 10/15 minute walk along the river and had everything we needed.

If I had a small criticism it is that I would personally like to see more leaflets/information regarding those eateries that would deliver to the gate area.

The facilities are well placed, warm, and very clean making them perfect....Read less.

It's such a lovely break we really enjoyed our stay, had a lovely meal at the Gallows would definitely recommend, there's some building work going on but it didn't interfere with our stay it's a good base for getting around, staff are excellent, showers & toilets were clean , price is valued fir money, places that we visited Wells next the sea, Sandringham, Holt, great area for national trust , while at Wells we did the open top bus that's definitely worth doing. (1951 Leyland photo enclosed)We are looking forward to next year because it's on our list of sites again ....Read less.

The fact that we've been to the site on several occasions including three in the last 15 months speaks for itself. The site is very peaceful and has all the amenities we require and does not feel regimented.

Good value for money....Read less.

We have been coming here for many years as it ticks all our boxes. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful fronting a campsite which has a choice of grass or hardstandings, two shower blocks with toilets, two elsan disposal points, rubbish/recycling bins, motorhome point and many taps in all areas.

The site is a short walk on a footpath into Fakenham town, which has a market twice a week and many shops, including Tesco. There are also buses near the market place....Read less.

A beautifully maintained site in a unique location, with great open spaces, out in the country but a short pleasant riverside walk into a lovely little town.

Wildlife is abundant, staff helpful and friendly, excellent eating facilities adjacent to site at a sports centre with golf, squash, indoor bowls etc. Book yourself a Sunday Lunch for a real treat....Read less.

From the ease of booking and the pleasant welcome and the very well kept site and the spotless facilities, what’s not to like? A pleasant walk into town and access to regular bus services to the North Norfolk sea resorts or into Norwich. Market and auction day on a Thursday is always a treat.

Fakenham Racecourse is my first choice when I fancy a few days away....Read less.

Spacious site in good location on edge of town. Only about 10 miles from the coast & its wonderful villages & beaches.

Friendly staff, good quality, clean facilities. Even though we stayed over the Bank Holiday, the site did not seem too crowded because there is plenty of space....Read less.

Tent pitches were well spaced. Not all the toilets/showers on the site map were open. Two showers meant there was some waiting. Washing up

room was good and there was use of a fridge and freezer. Short walk into town for pub and shops.

We had a view from the tent across the fields. Unfortunately, a big pile of wood planks for building had been placed to block the view - these could have been easily moved behind the hedge....Read less.

Great pitch sizes, countryside feel around the site, very clean facilities, town shops 2min drive away with a choice of takeaway restaurants etc, easy access to costal areas Cromer, Wells next the sea etc, reception staff very friendly and accommodating

Will definitely return 5star...Read less.

Large pitch , little walk to two immaculate toilet blocks, both with clean facilities. Loved the large field for children to play. Not a uncomfortable , silent site, but all guests respectful and by 11pm ish all quiet. Limited lighting resulting in great star gazing opportunities. Close to numerous beaches, with town being a short stroll away....Read less.

We unfortunately had to cut our stay short but the staff were very helpful and considerate towards our situation. The grass, electric pitches were well spaced and flat enough for a good tent grounding. Lovely views and calm site. Looking forward to returning. The photo is the view from our tent....Read less.

We decided to go to Fakenham racecourse campsite as the location was good for visiting family but unfortunately we were given a pitch next to a very disruptive family! Who had already threatened the manager. After being woken at 6am with very loud shouting we felt very nervous and asked to move pitch. Also toilets and showers were not fit to use as floors were flooded by same family also walking in to a couple having sex in ladies toilets is not wot you won’t when having a break away!! We did move pitches but couldn’t put our awning up as the caravan next to us were half on our pitch! We decided to leave two nights early as security were put on site entrance in fear of traveler’s coming on to site. The staff were ok and explained that they have to let gypsies on site but pitching us next to them to us was not acceptable essentially as the site was very empty. So we will not be returning....Read less.

Really easy check in, included a fob for the toilets & a little map which was fab. Short walk from the town which has pubs/takeaways and an Aldi. Showers were clean and tidy. There’s a little club on site, beer was the cheapest we’ve ever seen! Ladies working were lovely too. Only a short drive from the coast so would definitely recommend....Read less.

Pitch 100 lovely grass pitch with electric. Toilet block revamped to an excellent standard - very clean - only drawback no electric points to enable hair drying. Really friendly helpful staff. Easy walk into town and only 30mins to the coast....Read less.
