Breydon Water

Before arriving at Breydon Water we had a call to ask whether we had any questions, I asked about being able to book the indoor pool as every time I went online to book a slot it said there were none. She wasn't overly helpful and just said you need to pre-book. The park wasn't overly busy so I was unsure as to why we couldn't get a swimming slot. When we arrived at Breydon Water to check in, we were first told that we had to go to their other site to check in. There was no mention of this on the phone. Once we arrived there (less than a minute drive), the staff who checked us in were friendly. The caravan was clean but could probably do with a deep clean, we moved the twin beds together so our children had a bit more space to sleep, when we moved the bed we came across a thick layer of dust. One of our children dropped a toy down behind the TV unit, where we found odd bits of other children's toys and pages out of magazines. The equipment is extremely minimal in the kitchen, there was also no towel or mat in the bathroom to put down when getting out of the shower. We can't really comment on the entertainment as we didn't use it or the activities. On site there is a small adventure golf, karts for the kids to bike around. The activities hut shut quite early in the evening. The sun was still shining and it was shut. Being the Easter holidays I don't think it is particularly out of season. The phone signal is awful and no wifi in the caravan. One of the days wasn't a 'beach day' due to the weather, so we thought we'd go into the entertainment/restaurant bit to try and get on the wifi to find something to do, when we got to the door it was closed, as it didn't open unitl 9am. Which to some guests may be perfect, however, for a 'family friendly' site we'd have thought it may have been open earlier (around 8-8:30am). In the end we drove and found a garden centre not too far away. As a base to stay this holiday park is okay if you plan on being out exploring everyday, don't set your expectations too high otherwise you may be disappointed.

Great caravan for the price. One small issue which we reported when we left was that the en-suite did not open from the inside. Also there was nowhere to hang coats.

The caravan was clean and tidy and was really comfy to sleep in couldn’t get tv to connect to phone and could done with instructions to help with this but had everything i need in the caravan couldn’t complain really

Overall was ok we come away feeling a little disappointed in what we thought was going to be amazing wasn’t the best… outdoor swimming was sat having a cuppa tea and the parasols just went flying and hit me straight on shoulder my friend went to tell the team and no one come out to move all the parasols that was just left and to see if I was ok I was in pain with my shoulder and it’s been hurting ever since to sleep on…. The evening staff in the arcades one lady was just very rude we was trying to walk to get out my partner had a plastic cup in his hand to take with him and she followed him actually going shoo shoo get out with that shoo shop that’s so rude. The caravan itself was amazing so clean and lovely overall.

Very varied experience for our first time at this park. We used it more as a base so only really did anything on site on the first night. Plusses:- Most of the staff were friendly Food was good in the restaurant. Caravan was clean and ready on time (though 5pm check in is a bit late in my opinion). Minuses No staff to take food orders in the restaurant. You were forced to sign up to and use the app, which was very long winded. The caravan was spacious but the main seating area wasn't that comfortable. Netflix didn't work. Bingo was very fast, I'm not surprised there were so many false calls on the linked games. Also, the minimum ticket size was a strip of 3 at £9 - some people don't want to spend that much. Clubhouse is small, and the entertainment looked to be mostly just the staff doing turns. Shop was located in the sister park, which was a 2 minute drive away, so not easily accessible by foot. Definitely some improvements needed here, so wouldn't rush back.

The chalet was excellent value for money. Spacious and comfortable. There was a lack of information on the hot water heating and microwave and the TV reception was rubbish. The park was basic but the swimming pool was good. It was a split park, which was inconvenient.

a great place to unwind

Took 2 young grandchildren with us they really enjoyed it and want to go again next year

Caravan was very tiny for 8 people . Otherwise good value for money

Nice site but not near water. Caravan had two faults, went to reception within an hour a man was round and said all done, but the heated towel rail still didnt work. You need a car to get out.burgh castle is a short walk away but no footpath. Gorleston is beautiful and definitely worth a visit. Site clean and tidy. Be staff not friendly or acknowledge you

Caravans not cleaned very well & don’t look like what you see on website but still didn’t let it stop us having a good time

Excellent well maintained caravan and site

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this lovely quiet site, staff were all helpful and welcoming and can't praise them enough. Particularly helpful were Jordan on the door and the lifeguard at the pool.

It was a very enjoyable stay.

We had the BEST mini break at Breydon Water. The caravan was clean and well maintained. Checking in was easy. The facilities were easy to access. ALL staff were so helpful, professional, polite and friendly. We cannot wait to come back!!

Yare holiday park was great will stay there again.

We did not use the restaurant o cannot comment.

Stunning caravan, spotlessly clean .

The check in and out by text felt very in personal.Signs throughout the parks were very confusing, no staff on Bure site to ask for help.

Barton caravan was spotlessly clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Just a couple of things we thought could improve it - a bigger fridge, we had to shop each day as fridge was tiny. Also the shower floor was slippy. I had to buy a shower mat to prevent an accident.

Excellent comfortable caravan.

Caravan was lovely wish I could say the same for the people

It would of been a lovely holiday if it wasn't for the noise of the other holiday makers hadn't kept us awake for two nights shouting.

Brilliant can say no more

Upon arrival I did have to clean some chocolate off the table and some muck of the door. But other than that it was fine. Had all equipment that you could need, including a hair dryer.

Lovely designed new pet friendly caravan with built in dog bowls and resting area.

Good caravan for a family holiday

Carpet quite stained, poor TV reception.

The caravan itself was disappointing marks on the carpet and spiders of all sizes in every room there must be an infestation .

Great little holiday park for a weekend away - beach is nearby as well as the pleasure Beach. Great spot and lovely staff & accommodation.

Nice clean site staff friendly and helpful entertainment great

Beautiful caravan,comfy and everything you would want at hand.very clean.

Our car had to be recovered by Greenflag, the reception helped us so much they got our caravan ready before 12 mid day and were all very approachable 10/10

Lovely site in an ideal place. Only thing that could improve it is a shop on the site there is one on the other site up the road so not a big deal.

Great location, very clean caravan and the entire park . Quiet and really relaxing caravan park to be in

Loved our holiday here very quiet and relaxed we didn’t come in contact with staff or at the clubhouse as we were busy doing other stuff but an amazing holiday we will be back next year

Great caravan, shame about the other people in a close caravan near us who would come back and then put the car radio on full then go inside with no thought to others. Park nicely laid out not to hard to find, great standard of home when we arrived. Shame we did not know that we could of walked from the camp straight to the castle as there is an entrance in the corner.
