  • Well-maintained Norfolk site one mile from the Sandringham Estate
  • Within 10 minutes' drive of Hunstanton and Heacham beaches
  • Bar, adventure playground, dog-walking area and bicycle hire
Have you ever been to the Norfolk coast? Come and stay at Pine Cones Caravan and Camping, a mile from Sandringham Estate and a 10-minute drive from the beaches in Heacham and Hunstanton. At this well-maintained site, the staff aim to go out of their way to make sure that everyone's comfortable. There's something for everyone; kids tend to love the open space – teams can often be seen laughing over a game of football or other games – and spending hours on the play equipment. Meanwhile, all ages can unwind at the all-weather bar and terrace at Bens Bar, which is open at peak times for snacks, draught beer and other delicious drinks; live sports are also shown here. Dogs (up to two per booking) are very welcome and even get access to their own dedicated off-lead walking area and warm dog wash. Other on-site facilities include luxury individual bathrooms (each with a toilet, sink and shower), electric vehicle charging points and gas bottle sales. Takeaway food is served on site during peak times. At other times, simply stroll along to the two dog-friendly village pubs within walking distance. There are plenty of excellent walks and cycling paths from the site, with the Sandringham Visitor Centre only 20 minutes' walk away; hire a bicycle on site to get around quicker. Bus stops are nearby in Dersingham.

What customers say

Great pitches, fab facilities (loo/showers spotless!), and dog-friendly too. Staff are helpful, meals are good, but a few mention road noise and tricky drainage after heavy rain.

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site (large)

Liked Location excellent, clean facilities although did not use the showers has used our own caravan. Bar and food on site good. We were on fully serviced, good pitch allocated on arrival which is a nice size.

Disliked Only one dislike is the electricity you have to download an app, scan QR code, didn't work for us, was sorted at reception. Came back after a day out and the electricity had gone off. Although again sorted at reception this could have ruined our freezer food.

From the manager: Thank you for your review and for giving us a fantastic 9 out of 10 score.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed our excellent location, spacious fully serviced pitch, clean facilities, and the food and atmosphere at the bar. It's also great to know that you were pleased with the pitch allocated to you on arrival.

We're sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with the electric hook-up system. While we're pleased that our reception team was able to resolve both issues quickly, we understand how frustrating this must have been, particularly when you were concerned about the contents of your freezer.

Following feedback from guests, we have since made it much clearer during the setup process that the correct departure date must be entered into the app, as this determines when the electricity supply is scheduled to switch off. This has helped prevent similar issues from occurring.

Thank you again for your valuable feedback and kind comments. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope to welcome you back again soon.

We're delighted to hear that you found our arrival instructions easy to follow and that the facilities were clean and well maintained. It's also great to know that everything was in place for a stress-free stay and that our team were friendly and helpful throughout your visit.

Liked Peaceful and a lovely area. Ben’s bar was a nice surprise. Take a way food excellent. Ate 2 night out of the four. Reception staff very polite and friendly.

Disliked I personally was not keen on the toilet/ bathroom arrangements. Although clean and tidy would prefer single sex facilities.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, discovered Ben's Bar, and enjoyed the takeaway food during your stay. It's also wonderful to know that our reception team made you feel welcome with their friendly service.

Thank you for your feedback regarding the bathroom facilities. We understand that preferences can vary when it comes to washroom arrangements. While our private bathroom facilities are individual lockable rooms, some are designated as male, some as female, and the remaining facilities are signed as unisex to provide flexibility and availability for all guests. We're pleased to hear that you found them clean and well maintained, even if the layout wasn't quite to your personal preference.

We appreciate all feedback as it helps us understand what matters most to our guests. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future.

Sandy Acres powered grass and sand site (small)

Liked Friendly staff, little play area for young children, spacious pitches, easily accessible electricity via an app, quiet campsite despite being right on the main road.

Disliked Dog dirt around the site that hadn’t been picked up. Dirty drain smell from the bathrooms.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review and for highlighting the aspects of your stay that you enjoyed, including our friendly team, spacious pitches, play area, and the convenience of our electric hook-up system.

We're sorry to hear about the issues you encountered. As a dog-friendly campsite, we ask all guests to be responsible and clean up after their pets. While the vast majority do so, on the occasional instance where this has not happened, our team will remove any dog waste as soon as it is noticed or reported. We certainly take such matters seriously and act immediately when they are brought to our attention.

Regarding the bathroom drains, these are stripped down and thoroughly cleaned on a weekly basis as part of our maintenance programme. Any drainage or odour issues reported to us are dealt with immediately to ensure our facilities remain clean and pleasant for all guests.

We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us maintain the high standards we strive for, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Sandy Acres powered grass and sand site (small)

Liked Excellent location, very impressive private bathrooms. Clean and friendly site.

Disliked Our pitch was on sandy acres and the sand left a dusty film over everything! Other than that though, it was a lovely stay.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed our location, found the private bathrooms impressive, and appreciated the cleanliness of the site and the friendliness of our team. It's wonderful to know you had an enjoyable stay overall.

We also appreciate your feedback regarding the dust on Sandy Acres. During your stay, we experienced a spell of exceptionally hot and dry weather, which unfortunately can create more dust than usual on some of our pitches. While these conditions are beyond our control, we do understand how this can affect guests' equipment and comfort.

Thank you again for your kind comments, and we're pleased that this didn't detract too much from what was otherwise a lovely stay. We hope to welcome you back again soon.

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. 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 of the Norfolk Coast National Landscape – bring walking boots, crabbing nets and plenty of room for picnics.
