  • 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

Spacious, clean sites with great private facilities (some heated/with music). Staff are brilliant, and it's handy for Sandringham. Pleasant vibes, though road noise and app-based power usage are minor points. Most reckon they'll be back!

Pine Views fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site (small)

Liked Very well kept, secure site. Facilities are excellent, you even get piped radio in the shower and toilet cubicles, which are all individually divided. Great playpark for the kids and an off lead run for the dogs. Friendly staff with an on site shop, bar and food service. Didn't notice the traffic on the nearby bypass at all. will definitely return.

Disliked Nothing!

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave us an 8 out of 10 review.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful setting, beautiful walks, surrounding nature, and that you found our team welcoming and polite. It's also great to know that our toilet facilities were clean and tidy throughout your stay.

Thank you also for your feedback regarding the opening hours and food service. We regularly review our opening times throughout the season to ensure they reflect guest demand. During quieter periods, unfortunately there are occasions when demand is simply too low for us to open the kitchen every evening, as we have to balance this with the cost of staffing and food preparation.

Our bar is open daily from 9:30am to 3:00pm, then Monday to Saturday it reopens from 5:00pm to 9:00pm. On Sundays, the bar is open from 5:00pm to 9:00pm only. While food isn't currently served on Sunday evenings, we're fortunate that our local takeaway will deliver directly to the campsite entrance, providing guests with another convenient dining option.

We really appreciate your feedback as it helps us review the services we offer throughout the season. We hope to welcome you back to Pinecones again soon for another relaxing stay.

Pine Views fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked The site staff were very friendly. Location for us was absolutely fantastic. The pitch was perfect and great value for money.

Disliked Just could do with a little lighting around the shower block so torches were not needed late on.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your 8 out of 10 review and for taking the time to share your feedback.

We're delighted to hear that you found our team friendly, enjoyed our location, and felt your pitch was perfect and represented great value for money. It's wonderful to know you had an enjoyable stay with us.

Thank you also for your comments regarding the lighting around the shower block. As we are located within a designated Dark Sky area, our planning permission does not allow the use of floodlighting or excessive external lighting, helping to protect the natural environment and reduce light pollution. However, our toilet blocks are fitted with low-level up-and-down lighting that complies with our planning approval and provides guidance to the facilities.

For this reason, we do advise guests to bring and use a torch during the hours of darkness, and you'll find a number of reminder signs displayed around the site. While we appreciate this may be different from some campsites, it allows us to preserve the wonderful dark skies and peaceful countryside setting that so many guests enjoy.

Thank you again for your valuable feedback. We hope to welcome you back to Pinecones 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.
