The overall experience sits somewhere between a hotel and a self-catering cottage: more space and independence than a hotel room, with the on-site facilities and support of a proper holiday park around you. Most first-time guests find, by day two, that it feels entirely normal, and quite a few come back wondering why they didn't try it sooner.
There isn't one single answer to how far ahead you should book, because it depends heavily on when you actually want to go.
As a rough guide: book six months or more ahead for summer holiday weeks, two to three months ahead for half terms and bank holidays, and https://www.checkapark.com/united-kingdom/lowestoft/holiday-parks/tingdene-north-denes-caravan-park anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months ahead for a standard term-time week. If you're flexible on exact dates, you can comfortably push closer to the wire; if you're fixed on a specific week, particularly a school holiday one, earlier is always safer than later.
A countryside or Broads-side setting offers a different rhythm. Rather than one central stretch of coast, you're usually within reach of quiet lanes, market towns, nature reserves and, on the Broads specifically, slow-moving waterways that suit an afternoon boat trip or a riverside pub lunch. It tends to be a calmer setting day to day, better suited to those who want gentle walks, birdwatching or simply a quieter base to come back to after a day out, rather than beach-focused activity.
Getting three generations away together takes a bit more planning than a standard family trip, but a holiday park set-up handles it better than most people expect.
Off-peak months help enormously too. School holidays and the height of summer are when demand is tightest, so a late booking in May, September or October usually has far more choice than the same search in late July. The weather isn't guaranteed either way, but a coastal or countryside break in early autumn can be genuinely pleasant, with quieter paths and shorter queues wherever you stop for lunch.
