  • Well-maintained site with excellent facilities

  • 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.

Sandy Acres electric grass and sand pitch

Liked: Campsite was the perfect size, our children were able to go about it by themselves without feeling they were too far away.
Toilets/showers were nice and clean. Park area was great for the children. Pitches we were on were perfect for what we wanted and the added bonus of a bar to end the day with a nice drink was amazing. Would definitely return!

Disliked: We were set quite far back from the entrance and road so this wasn’t a major issue but my only dislike was hearing the road at night time.

Pine Views fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (comfort)

Liked: Showers were amazing as all self contained. Hot water a bit hit and miss.
Lovely clean site, really nice staff.
Dog friendly but see dislikes

Disliked: Unable to leave dogs alone, even to just nip to the shops! I understand the rules, but saying dog friendly on the Internet I thought would be more understanding. Unable to go out for days with our child so not the best holiday for him and the pre booked tickets for sea life Hunstanton ended up being a waste of money as unable to leave the dogs.

Liked: All the wildlife. We saw deer, foxes, bats and unusual pink moths whilst at our pitch on an evening. Good clean facilities and very friendly staff. Great location and loved the free walks from the campsite!

Disliked: The noise from the road.

Pine Views fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (comfort)

Liked: The cleanliness of the site, including the shower and toilet areas.
We also liked the bar and restaurant area - particularly the decor. Staff were very friendly also.

Disliked: Probably could do with a slightly bigger park - maybe just one or two extra bits of equipment for the children to play on.
Shop to be open a little later.

Sandy Acres electric grass and sand pitch

Liked: Large flat pitches made pitching and packing away easy, toilets always clean and available, staff friendly, park good, location fantastic and great access to walks from the site. We walked to the RBS wildlife area on the coast and Sandringham Palace, both recommended by the staff on arrival. They were stunning, flat and on wide paths which is ideal with kids.

Disliked: The bar did not serve hot food. It was a shame as breakfast and dinner were advertised but shut on the day. The bar had a great selection of drinks and had nice vibes so would have liked to have spent more time in it if they served food.

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.
