  • Well-maintained site with excellent facilities
  • A few miles from the Norfolk coast
  • Sixteen luxury bathrooms on site with individual showers and loos
Have you ever been to the Norfolk coast? Pine-ing to return or to see it for the first time? Come and stay at Pine Cones Caravan and Camping, near King's Lynn inland and Heacham and Hunstanton on the coastline – this is such a royally good region that King Charles and his cohorts have a pad at Sandringham just a mile away. If the king were camping, it's a fairly safe bet he would like the up to date and excellently kept amenities at Pine Cones too: 16 warm luxury bathrooms, all with their own shower, toilets, basin and storage racks; a roomy, indoors washing-up area with several sinks and plenty of drainer space; and a washing machine and dryer in a separate room to sort out the laundry. Once the essentials are sorted, send the kids off to the adventure playground to try out the treehouse, rope ladders and high level walkway, and settle down in the picnic area with coffee and eats… there's a coffee machine on site and the well-stocked shop sells a good selection of items including bread, milk, and fresh and frozen food. A selection of outdoor gym equipment is also available for the energetic holidaymaker. Off site, Pine Cones is about a mile from the nearest pub the Feathers, or trot off to award-winning the Coach and Horses. Both are in nearby Dersingham village, where there's also a supermarket, takeaway and coffee shop dishing up homemade cakes daily.

What customers say

This well-maintained site offers spacious, level pitches and a friendly atmosphere, with many guests praising the exceptional cleanliness and modern design of the individual bathroom facilities. Its location is ideal for exploring the Norfolk coast and local attractions. Staff are consistently described as helpful and welcoming. While most visitors had a positive experience, some noted potential road noise and a desire for more enclosed dog-walking areas. Overall, it's a highly recommended destination for a relaxing break.

Pine Views fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked This was our second visit here, we came with the same friends in 2021. The site is lovely and clean. There are plenty of fully serviced large pitches, some have solar panels helping to provide the electricity, most have a shelter with a table. There is a dog washing area and an automatically filled dog water bowl (the dog brewery). It's incredibly dog friendly with plenty of walks and bike rides from the site.
There is also a bar and pizzas on Saturday evening.
The wifi was good too.

Disliked The bathrooms are clean but need a full redecoration...black tiles and black radiators, along with the toilet seats give a dated feeling. Don't get me wrong black "slate/limestone" tiles look cleaner than white, but the whole effect is oppressive.
While I appreciate that there are guests with young families (in the school holidays) the 10:15pm no noise rule/total silence/curfew is incredibly harsh, especially this summer when there have been many evenings when it's been too hot to move indoors so early.
Also, the bar was only open in the day time when we were off site, apart from Saturday evening when it closes early, we went out to give the dogs a play on the beach at Hunstanton and had fish and chips for dinner, by the time we got back the bar was closed.

Liked Not a lot

Disliked Local traffic noise! A bit of a ‘mix it up’ Motorhomes, caravans and tents all in the same place and quite cramped. Open fires burning so gad smoke coming straight into Motorhome. Apparently there are stunning views but we didn’t see them. Would we go again? No

Liked A second visit that was just a perfect as the first!

The location is just fabulous, the facilities are superb. It really is a hidden gem of a touring site. We messaged to request a specific pitch prior and they responded to say that they had allocated us our requested pitch. We can’t wait to return, this is our favourite touring site to date. It’s an ideal location for touring the Norfolk coast with facilities and a site that are top notch! Thank you Pine Cones x

Liked Shower & toilet facilities were lovely.

Disliked Pitches were not laid out very well and felt cramped. All the pitches are in together so we’re sharing with tents. Pitch opposite us had a big open fire both nights which ruined it for us. Can really hear the road even though we were the furthest pitches away from the road.
When we arrived people were on our pitch so we had to wait for them to move.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Great site and will definitely return if we are back that way.

Sandy Acres electric grass and sand pitch (small)

Liked Very pleasant site. Toilet / showers were clean. Pot wash was a good size too. Laminated walk guides in reception with a small shop. Small bar with food too. A small bit of road noise but was pretty quiet during the night.

Disliked Nothing (apart from the remarkably low hand driers)

Juliane d.

Sandy Acres electric grass and sand pitch (small)

Liked A very beautiful and well maintained place. Everything clean and well thought through. Super nice and clean bathrooms. Rental bikes. A cafè/bar with friendly staff, cafe, snacks and 3 beers on tap.
Would definetly come back and recommend

Disliked I booked a spot for 1 small tent. I got allotted a huge spot with very uneven, hard and slanted floor full of gravel. Probably meant for a mobile home or van.
I would have preferred a smaller one with softer and straighter floor but there was no one at the reception all day to arrange a swap.

Local attractions

Beaches, historic houses, museums and festivals, tiny villages, market towns and fab family days out are all easily accessible from Pine Cones Caravan and Camping – after a day at Sandringham, but of course, to wave at the king first... Within a couple of miles, the deer safaris, farming activities and walking trails of Snettisham Deer Park and the sights and smells of Norfolk Lavender are both good options for a day out; Snettisham has an RSPB reserve too for those itching to twitch. But as you're probably in west/north Norfolk for the beaches, head to Heacham, Holkham and Hunstanton first, the closest sands to Pine Cones, and then take a trip to Brancaster 11 miles away; the family-friendly and very scenic sands of Sheringham, Cromer and Mundsley are a little further along the coast. (Also, the final scenes of Shakespeare in Love were filmed at Holkham, and all the beaches in these parts are fairly filmworthy, so bring your camera.) Other excellent options for days out include village hopping and shopping among the scenic sights of Dersingham, Holt, Fakenham, Aylsham and Burnham Market to pick up some local produce, or going along to one of Norfolk's festivals or events: there's usually something going on throughout the year. Pine Cones is also on the edge the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – bring walking boots, crabbing nets and plenty of room for picnics.
