£6 with gift aid to access hides. Includes day car parking. The hide pass isnt really necessary if you're going for a casual watch. There are places to observe most of the available bird life on the free paths. Car parking wasn't as expensive as I thought it was going to be. £1.50 for an hour cant remember the next price up for 3 or 4 hours. Staff and volunteers were very friendly and helpful. We'll definitely go again but plan to spend longer there. It was an expensive flying visit (only an hour) as we didn't know we could have enjoyed the visit without the hide access. But the pass would be recommended for longer visits

Wonderful cafe and shop. I’d recommend walking out the back (towards the loos) and along to Cley Spy as there’s a gallery there that has exhibitions on. I’ve discovered so many fantastic artists this way. You should also keep an eye out for the different events they have on, whether it’s guided birdwatching, a talk, or a craft session. The marsh itself is glorious and there are a few hides to sit in too. That being said, you still have wonderful views from the cafe. We saw a marsh harrier, little egrets, a robin, blue tits, geese, and many others we didn’t get a chance to identify. It’s a pay and display car park, but it’s free for Norfolk Wildlife Trust members. My only piece of feedback is that I wish the cafe did syrups. I was craving a vanilla latte. That being said, the flat white was excellent.

We visited here whilst away in our caravan. It was a beautiful place to visit with lots of walks in the fresh air. There is a Cafe/restaurant for a coffee and bite to eat. It's all free unless you want to use the bird hides.

We had a fantastic day here. It's so peaceful and beautiful at all the hides. What was supposed to be a "couple of hours stop" turned out to be an "all day stop" it captives you that much. We had "coffee and cake" in the visitor centre. This was very busy as it was lunchtime. A POINT TO NOTE... DON'T PAY FOR PARKING AT THE MACHINES IF YOUR ARE PLANNING TO VISIT THE HIDES AS THE PARKING IS INCLUDED WITH YOUR SITE ADMISSION, only pay at the machines if only using the visitor centre/cafe.

Really nice place. Super café, ample parking although I can imagine it gets busy in the summer. Take a lovely circular walk from here, about 1 hour, and have a coffee and cake in the café. Absolutely beautiful. Be warned...No dogs allowed on the walk through due to the birds.

One of our favourite places to visit. The staff are helpful and informative. The cafe is excellent and will pack up sandwiches to take with you across the marsh. However, this is all eclipsed by the variety and number of birds that we saw (we visited in April): marsh harriers, spoonbills, curlew, godwit, ruff, redshank, teal and avocet amongst some more common estuary birds. We highly recommend a visit.
