Cycle hire

  • Grass pitches in the grounds of Holkham Hall, in north Norfolk
  • Wells-next-the-Sea 10 minutes’ drive; Blakeney Point 20 minutes
  • Cycle hire, café and playground, plus shop selling food and souvenirs
Explore the northern reaches of Norfolk from Camp Holkham, a large pop-up site with grass pitches on the grounds of Holkham Hall, an elegant centuries-old country house. What’s more, the estate puts on a lively programme of events – from wildlife safaris to Saturday parkruns and crafts workshops – so you won’t be short of things to do on the days when you don’t feel like driving around East Anglia. Mind you, depending on how far you wish to go, you don’t have to reach for the car keys at all – simply hire a bike on site and head to the coast. It’s a 15-minute cycle ride to Wells-next-the Sea beach, a vast expanse of sand lined with colourful beach huts and backed by a pine forest that’s part of the Norfolk Coastal National Landscape. From there, continue west to Holkham beach, where you might see horseriders galloping by the water’s edge. Alternatively, head east to Blakeney Point (55 minutes by bike, or 20 by car), an area of mudflats that's home to a large colony of seals. On site, a café serves simple meals (sandwiches, sausage rolls, salads) and cakes; and there are restaurants, takeaways and pubs in nearby Wells-next-the-Sea (10 minutes’ drive); there’s also a beer shop on the A149 road (five minutes) if you want to stock up on local brews. In addition to a play area and a ropes course, the site has a shop selling souvenirs, children’s books and local produce, plus a toilet/shower block and a launderette.

What customers say

Guests praised the perfect location and weather, with many highlighting the amazing, friendly staff and incredibly clean facilities. The design-led loos and showers were a particular hit. The site is highly recommended for cyclists and those seeking stunning views. A minor concern was the need for more water points. One reviewer noted an ant infestation on their pitch.

Liked Wardens kept the facilities in great condition considering the number of people using them. Arrival and pitching was very smoothly done.

Disliked Felt that the advertising of the event was not quite as expected, ie foodvans in the evenings - not once in the 4 nights did any come on to the camp site, others were also expecting them as people had not brought food for the whole time expecting to be able to buy evening meals the beer van did come but only between 6-8pm, little longer would have been nice.

Electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked We absolutely loved this for a pop up site. The facilities were mainly very clean and well looked after, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. I couldn’t fault it for a temporary site. Views were incredible, seeing the grounds when there were very few people around was a rare privilege. Loved this site!

Disliked It would have been lovely if there was a rotation of food vans each night, the food festival on the grounds was only on till 4ish, so it would have been great if you could get them down to the site to grab a bite around 6ish

Local attractions

Since you’re on its grounds, your first stop should be Holkham Hall itself. At this 18th-century country house, you might marvel at the splendid Marble Hall, with a dome inspired by the Pantheon in Rome, or get inspiration for your own cooking area in the Old Kitchen, a massive room lined with copper pans. Nearby nature reserves include Holkham National Nature Reserve (five minutes’ drive) and Scolt Head Island National Nature Reserve (15 minutes). The former is a coastal area of sand dunes, pine forests and marshland where you might see oystercatchers and terns. The latter is a barrier island inhabited by geese and ducks. If you’re planning a trip to Cromer (50 minutes), check out the programme at the Pavilion Theatre, at the end of the pier, which might include musical tribute acts and stand-up comedy. A zig-zagging path leads from the miniature golf course to the Cromer Artspace on the Prom, a community space with temporary exhibitions and workshops.
