This family-run holiday park in the Norfolk Broads is bound to be a handy base for getting out and exploring the coast and countryside. Set within a peaceful woodland within the national park, Clippesby Hall has scenic wooded surroundings, high-quality facilities and – get this – it's also only a 20-minute drive from the seaside resort of Great Yarmouth and 35 minutes from the historic city of Norwich.
The park lies in a nature-rich area with woodland glades, mature gardens and peaceful green spaces. The modern reception and BASECAMP complex houses a café-bar-restaurant serving everything from full English breakfasts to stonebaked pizzas, plus a shop for essentials. Modern shower facilities (spacious, bright and impeccably maintained) are another convenience.
Spend your downtime flitting between the varied leisure facilities: there’s an 18-hole mini golf course, cycle hire and tennis courts directly on site. Kids can also let off steam at the adventure playground, where there are zipwires and a climbing wall, or at the two other on-site play areas.

Clippesby lies in the heart of the Broads National Park. This area of outstanding natural beauty caters for an enormous range of activities: Birdwatching, boating, cycling, fishing..the list is endless.
Just a few miles away Great Yarmouth offers a more lively range of attractions. During the day the beaches and the sea-front are obviously the main draw. Here you can get close to sharks, brave the rollercoaster or take in the famous pier. By night the seafront illuminations light your way to shows, restaurants, clubs and the casino for those who like a flutter.
For a quieter day head north along the coast to find countless beaches and small seaside villages each with their own distinct and charming character or visit one of the many National Trust sites such as Blickling Hall.
Alternatively take a journey by steam train, come face to face with a tiger, step back into a bygone age, all are possible within a short drive of Clippesby Hall.
Norwich provides not only a fascinating chance to visit a historic cathedral city but also one of the best shopping opportunities in the country. The riverside complex (Just 20 minutes away by car and right next to the train station with a service from Acle) provides a brand new entertainment district with 21 screen multiplex cinema, tenpin bowling, restaurants and clubs.
