  • Small family-friendly Norfolk site close to the Broads and the coast
  • Eccles-on-Sea beach five minutes’ drive and Wroxham 25 minutes
  • Accessible pitches; pub 10 minutes’ walk; shops 10 minutes’ drive
Tucked away in gorgeous Norfolk countryside, just five minutes by car from the golden sands of Eccles-on-Sea, Honeybee Camping is a small, friendly and family-run campsite within easy reach of villages like Potter Heigham (15 minutes’ drive) and Wroxham (25 minutes), both considered gateways to the myriad attractions of the Broads National Park. Accessibility is at the heart of this site’s layout; the camping meadow is nicely flat with no unexpected bumps or slopes, the Elsan point and water taps are raised to make them easier to use, and there is accessible parking too. For anyone keen to get down to the sea, an easy route runs along footpaths from the site entrance to the beach at Eccles-on-Sea in about 20 minutes. The local town of Stalham (10 minutes) has a traditional greengrocer, bakery, butcher and deli as well as a supermarket and petrol station – and if you fancy a day off from cooking, there are several cafés and pubs too. You can also reach the local pub at Lessingham in about 10 minutes’ walk on quiet country lanes. In short, pretty much everything you need is close at hand, so you can get on with the business of unwinding and enjoying the simple joys of camping: fresh mornings, big skies, the sea close by, country rambles and evenings under the stars.

What customers say

Kiwi campers rave about this new, peaceful spot. Owner KT's a legend, going the extra mile. Great, clean facilities and huge pitches. Beach and shops nearby. Wi-Fi can be spotty, and no bins onsite (but upgrades are planned!).

Liked Site owner greeted us on arrival and was very welcoming.

Lovely kept field and large pitches, so plenty of space between fellow campers.

Easy walk to the beach.

Clean facilities- despite only being one for the whole site.

Disliked WiFi in back corner of field pitch 4 and 5 too slow to use for anyone needing internet access for work or commitments/ communications.

Despite being dog friendly, no bins on site. Only accessible bin closer to the beach on bridal way.

From the manager: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. 😊 I’m really pleased you enjoyed the peaceful site, generous pitches, cleanliness of the facilities and the easy walk down to the beach.

Thank you also for your honest feedback. We’re still a new site and are continually looking at ways we can improve. I’m sorry the Wi-Fi wasn’t suitable for you on pitches 4 and 5, particularly if you needed it for work or important communications. It’s definitely something we’ll look into.

As for the bins, we currently ask guests to take their rubbish home with them, which is explained in our site information, but I completely appreciate that this isn’t always convenient, especially for dog owners. We’ll certainly take your comments on board as we continue developing the site. Hopefully this is something we can offer next year.

It was lovely to have you stay with us, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. 🐝🌿

Very friendly and helpful…

Liked Lovely peaceful site with plenty of room for everyone. 20 minute walk to beach and further 10 minute walk along coast path towards Cart Gap to find a wonderful cafe. KT was a great host, meeting us on arrival and coming over to chat about the local area which was appreciated. This is a new site with big plans, we will return and look forward to seeing it develop 😊

It was a pleasure to meet you both, and we really appreciate your kind words about our little new site. We’ve got lots of plans for the future, and it will be lovely to welcome you back and hopefully show you some of the developments! 💛

Liked Great site with friendly owner KT always happy and checking if everything is ok this is site run by KT and you can tell her enthusiasm for this site is about making us campers have the best time .Pitch areas are very generous allowing lots of room and facilities were spotlessly clean. This is a new site and bits are being added with some great ideas going forward but that does not mean the site isn't camper ready by any means we had a fantastic time there.
Overall it is a quite site run by a friendly chilled Lady who has the passion to make it a resounding success and would definitely stay here again thank you KT for a great week♥️

Route directions

Please don’t follow satnav for the final approach, some of the roads are unsuitable for caravans. Coming from Wroxham or Great Yarmouth, leave the A149 at the Stalham exit and follow Market Road. Turn left at the mini-roundabout, and immediately right at the next mini-roundabout onto Ingham Road. Carry on until The Ingham Swan. The road has a sharp left bend in front of the pub, followed by a sharp right. Take the sharp right bend onto Palling Road towards Sea Palling, and turn left onto Water Lane to reach Ingham Corner. From there, follow Ingham Road into Lessingham. After about a mile, turn right into Heath Road, which bends left and then reaches a right-hand turn. On the turn, bear left to the farm. The site entrance is on the left after about 50 yards.
