Power optional grass motorhome site

Liked: A well run quiet site and Nigel was really helpful and offered to assist with any issues should we have had any. Plenty of space between the pitches allowing an amount of privacy, close enough for a chat with others should you wish, it also allowed younger campers room to play.

Power optional grass tent site (family, medium)

Liked: Proximity to the sea but that part of the coastline is not exactly picturesque.

Disliked: Site that was tired looking and lacklustre. The condition and cleanliness of the toilets/showers. One of the men’s urinals was not connected to a water pipe and stank. Being woken up at 6 or 7am by the cock crowing. The view of an abandoned caravan adjacent to our pitch (photo below) and its door banging constantly in the wind. Not overly enamoured with Nigel who “greeted” us, initially being a bit surly on the phone. Signage to the site from the road could be improved- took a while to find the site.

From the manager: Thank you Micheal for taking the time to leave a review, we are so pleased that you enjoyed our fabulous location just a 2 minute walk from the beach. We are sorry you did not enjoy our back to basic facilities, and such a shame that you would not recommend nor visit us again here on the Norfolk Coast :)

Power optional grass campervan site (no awning)

Liked: Location, close to the beach & some nice pubs in the village

Disliked: Shower & toilet facilities were very poor, having paid £40 + £3 for the dog for one night we expected clean modern facilities. We paid £22 for a campsite near Sheringham which were of better standard. The drinking water was cloudy not clear so had to buy some which we don’t like doing due to unnecessary use of plastic! Our pitch had remnants of the previous users with cigarette butts & bottle tops strewn across the grass. We find it hard to believe the reviews for this site scoring 10/10, this site is double the price that it should.

From the manager: Thank you Helen for taking the time to leave a review, we are so pleased that you enjoyed our fabulous location right by the beach. We have many 10/10 reviews, our campers like our back to basic camping and relaxed attitude, the freedom to bring a dog and have a fire while spending time so close to the coast. We are sorry that you will not return, it was a pleasure to host you all the same :)

Simon B. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass campervan site

Liked: Close proximity to the beach and a couple of good public footpaths. Friendly site team/owners. We like the hens freely walking around the place. One cheeky hen ate some of our dog's dinner and she was happy to be handled! Free metal bin lids and bricks provided for fire pits.

Disliked: The ground at our plot was very uneven. I wonder if there are plans to flatten it and re-grass out of season.

The site is behind the sea defences: watch out as you head towards the sea. The site is the last farm building on the left-hand side of the road. From the A149 at King's Lynn, turn left towards Heacham South Beach (Lamsey Lane). Then, turn left again towards the beach and turn left into the campsite when you can see the sea in front of you (roughly 1000 yards before the beach).

Local attractions

Nature fans rejoice, for there's birdwatching galore around here. Make for the RSPB reserve in Snettisham for flocks of birds around the Wash, or for RSPB Titchwell Marsh (20 minutes' drive) to see avocets, marsh harriers and pink-footed geese around its marshlands, reedbeds and freshwater lagoons. Titchwell has a wide sandy beach to investigate too, where scenery seekers can snap far-reaching views across the Wash. Boating and watersports are easily accessed just down the coast at Hunstanton. The town's also home to the rides of Rainbow Park fairground, and the Sea Life Sanctuary next door where you and curious kids can see seals, penguins, otters and other watery species. Other recommended options include Norfolk Lavender, five minutes' drive away at Caley Mill, and the 12th-century ruins of Castle Rising (15 minutes), one of the biggest and best preserved keeps in England.
