Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Lovely secuded campsite. Peaceful, friendly and ideal for walking.

Disliked: Only one thing I would say is on first impressions it's a bit tired looking. Lots of scrap and old caravans etc on the drive to the camping field , it didn't bother us but could put some people off.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Good size pitches on level field, toilet blocks ok if a little dated. Nice and quiet Owner came and checked later in day that all was ok so was a nice touch.

Disliked: Entrance resembles a junk yard and I had to check twice I was at the right place. No one around when I arrived and had to phone to be told where the top field was and where the shower block was as tucked away.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Quiet campsite with fires and dogs allowed. Well priced, friendly staff and clean toilets.

Disliked: Washing up facilities could do with some drying racks and showers need a bit of work, but they're functional and hot.

Liked: 2nd field was slightly better kept.

Disliked: Very busy. No check in or any sign of anyone on arrival to show you around. Facilities are old and unclean. Like a junkyard. 15 minute walk to the beach yes, but very hard to find!

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Great site….very friendly, basic, but fun. We were in the groups field which suited us…..It had everything we wanted, fires aloud, groups aloud, dogs aloud ( we had 3 ) we could pitch 5 tents together in a group and no fun police telling you to put the fire out at ?O’clock ! We had a great time and will return again…….. Fire wood was top quality, clean burning and a bargin at £5 There is also a lovely family field at the top with nice basic but adequate facilities !!!

Disliked: First appearances aren’t great, but don’t judge a book by its cover

Local attractions

Beach days on the brain? No worries – sandy shores are on the horizon, whether it’s Mundesley beach's (five minutes’ drive) safe swimming waters, beach huts and watersports or Cromer’s beach and traditional pier (15 minutes), a popular crabbing spot for novices and pros, by the way. Sea Palling Beach (35 minutes) is another watersports haven with plenty of swims and sandy dunes in store. It's likely you’ve already met the site’s alpacas, but if it’s monkeys, pumas and peccaries you’d like to see next, Amazona Zoo (15 minutes) has a cluster of South American animals. You’re sure to spot some creepy crawlies and feathered animals around the woodland and parkland walks, the lake and walled garden at Felbrigg Hall, Gardens and Estate (15 minutes) too. If you’ve kids to keep occupied, they might enjoy clambering across the treehouse adventure park at BeWILDerwood Norfolk (half an hour) or gliding across the boating lake at North Lodge Park (10 minutes). Heard of Henry Blogg, a famous lifeboat crew member who performed some fearsome rescues? The RNLI Henry Blogg Museum (15 minutes) remembers his life and some of his craziest rescues.
