  • Family-friendly site two miles from Mundesley beach, with dogs welcome
  • A 15-minute drive from Cromer and half an hour to Wroxham Broad
  • Under 10 minutes’ walk from a village pub and playing field
Nosing around for a north Norfolk break that is well-based for countryside walks, crabbing, cruising The Broads and chilling at the beach? Try Meadow View Camping and Caravan Site, a family-friendly site on the coast just two miles from Mundesley. To be precise, it’s just a 40-minute walk (or a five-minute drive) from its beach and Victorian seafront, where there are beach huts. The site is in a peaceful Norfolk village called Trunch. You might be quite familiar with the place by the end of your stay – and happily so – because it has a social club hosting live music and two beer festivals per year, as well as a welcoming pub with fodder, beer, good music and other events. As if that isn't enough already, the village also has countryside walks, a playing field and a 15th-century church. No need to leave furry family members behind at Meadow View Camping and Caravan Site, as it's dog-friendly. Barbecues and firepits are also both welcome (just note that only firepits hired from Meadow View are permitted). You should have plenty of good tales for the firepit, with there being so many beaches nearby: Trimingham (10 minutes’ drive), Cromer (15 minutes) and Sheringham (25 minutes), for example. Walcott beach, 10 minutes' drive away, is a fine choice, with a café, ice cream parlour, fish and chips shop and a post office with a shop all along the seafront. In Mundesley, there are pubs, restaurants, cafés, takeaways, another social club, arcades, miniature golf, a petrol station and a supermarket – very handy indeed. Just remember that this is a rural location next to a working farm, so there are likely to be country smells and sounds at times.

Christine B.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Such a lovely site. Very warm welcome! Showers and toilets were clean. Loved the fire pit at night and wood was a very good price, great idea to have little bags of marshmallows too! Walking distance to the local pub and Trunch social club, which served delicious butchers sausages and burgers on a Friday night.

Disliked Not really a dislike, just a little bit of advice! Local pub was fully booked for the Saturday night so would recommend booking a table if you want to eat there!

Nicky A.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked We really liked how welcoming and friendly the owners were. We sent a text asking if we could purchase more fire wood, delivered to our pitch within 10 minutes!
The showers/toilet blocks were always very clean as was the washing up area. This site was great for us as it's so close to some beautiful beaches, like Cromer and Sea Palling, both fantastic! Also cloests supermarket was only an 8 minute drive!

Disliked Nothing!

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked The big open space, minimal 'attractions', fire-pit hire, location

Disliked The field is dark and distant to the toilet block at night.
Whilst we were lucky to be there at a quiet time, and the washing etc facilities are well kept, it could be a tiresome wait at busy times.

Jan M.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Booked a last minute one night away break. Liked that extra costs were not added on after (ie. per person, per dog, awning...)
Large field, with electric points along one side. Lots of space for children to play in the middle of the field.
Was lovely that groups could position themselves together or people could be spaced well away from others.
Toilets and showers were of a good standard and kept very clean.
Was an unruly family, but the owners/staff spoke to them and addressed the noise issue. Very impressed.

Disliked My only negative was that you could only use their fire pits and wood.

Liked Loved the spacious surroundings and that the children had so much room to explore and enjoy without being a nuisance to other campers. Christine was on hand from the minute we arrived and nothing was too much trouble for her or the other staff.

The facilities were immaculate. Was an amazing few days and would highly recommend the site for exploring Norfolk

Local attractions

When it comes to getting stuck into the north Norfolk coast, you might want to get a tick list going…there’s Overstrand beach and Walcott beach to see and crabbing on the pier in Cromer (all within 15 minutes' drive). Keep ticking them off: the lighthouse in Happisburgh (20 minutes), seal spotting at Blakeney Point (40 minutes) and Waxham (35 minutes) or sandy beaches at Sea Palling (half an hour) and Wells-next-the-Sea (55 minutes). The latter has a gorgeous fishing port running seal-watching trips. Inland’s just as excellent. There’s a generous handful of National Trust properties within driving distance, plus ways to get out onto The Broads in Wroxham (half an hour). You might want to board the Bure Valley Railway there or join The North Norfolk Steam Railway in Sheringham (25 minutes). For all you budding historians, Weybourne (half an hour) has the Muckleburgh Military Collection too. Family-friendly ventures are easily sourced, with various entertainments in North Walsham (10 minutes), treetop adventures at BeWILDerwood Norfolk (half an hour) and all the attractions in Great Yarmouth (50 minutes) like Pleasure Beach, Britannia Pier and Sea Life Great Yarmouth.
