  • Lakeside site five minutes’ drive from Holt in rural North Norfolk
  • A 20-minute drive from Sheringham and Cromer; woodland walks on site
  • Beach 15 minutes’ drive; pub five minutes’ drive; firepits welcome
Tucked into the stunning 'Holt Hollow' on the outskirts of the Norfolk Coast National Landscape, North Norfolk Camping and Glamping is a splendid getaway indeed. At five minutes’ drive from the services of the Georgian town of Holt, the camping field is peaceful and quiet, but certainly not remote. It overlooks wildflower meadows and a peaceful lake surrounded by acres of woodlands just begging to be explored by family, pals and – as it’s very pet-friendly too – any accompanying dogs. Kids can paddle in the lake and run around building forts in the woods before gathering with family around a campfire in the evenings. There are North Norfolk beaches and nature reserves within 20 minutes’ drive, as well as long hikes along the Norfolk Coast Path. Facilities on site include firepits, firewood and campfires so you can rustle up a barbecue. If alfresco cooking is firmly off the agenda, head for the takeaways, pubs and restaurants in Holt – you can walk there in half an hour if you want to make a night of it.

Unpowered grass tent site (large, four person)

Liked: Beautiful place, just next to the lake

Disliked: Difficult to take shower when it is windy as the shower rooms are not fully closed.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: hank you for your feedback! We're so pleased you enjoyed the beautiful location right next to the lake. 😊

We also appreciate you pointing out the issue with the shower rooms and the wind. That's definitely something we'll look into to see how we can improve the design and make showering more comfortable, even on windy days. Perhaps we can explore options for better enclosure without compromising ventilation.

Thanks again for letting us know – your feedback helps us make the site even better for everyone!

From the manager: It sounds like you truly appreciated the beauty of our surroundings! We're so glad you enjoyed the picturesque nature of our location. 😊

We understand that the lack of phone reception can be a drawback for some, and it's something we're aware of. While the remoteness contributes to the tranquility and stunning scenery, we are continually exploring potential solutions to improve connectivity without disrupting the natural charm.

Thank you for highlighting both the beauty and the challenge. We hope the beautiful setting offered a welcome escape, and we'd love to have you visit again!

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked: Beautiful setting with loads of space to spread out. A real haven of tranquility.

Disliked: In the field behind the carpark there is a noticeable and loud humming noise all night which seems to come from a nearby pumping station - so take ear plugs! Also, showers are only for the brave as both feet and shoulders are open to the elements and water is warm ish at best.

Local attractions

Nature-lovers may get to spot owls and fallow deer in the woods around the campsite, and families can take binoculars to watch for rare bird species on nature walks in Holt Country Park (five minutes’ walk). For more animal sightings, visit the grey seal colonies at Weybourne or Blakeney Point (both 15 minutes’ drive) in autumn and winter. North Norfolk beaches include Sheringham (15 minutes) for rock pooling on its pebble beach, lively Hunstanton (45 minutes) with all its family amusements, and Wells-next-the-Sea (25 minutes), popular for its sandy beach backed by colourful beach huts. Victorian Cromer (20 minutes) is known for family entertainment on the pier and Banksy’s renowned ‘Great British Spraycation’. There’s culture by the bucketload too. Anyone with an interest in military history may like to take a turn around the weaponry and vehicles at Muckleburgh Military Collection (15 minutes). There are priceless antiques and artworks to be seen at Palladian-style Holkham Hall (half an hour), or you can pretend you’re royalty for the day with a nose around the palatial apartments at Sandringham Estate (40 minutes), and afterwards let the kids (and any dogs) have a run in the wooded parkland.
