  • Small tourer site adjacent to a restaurant in Little Snoring, Norfolk
  • Cromer Beach 35 minutes’ drive; Sandringham Estate 25 minutes
  • Level pitches with no-frills facilities; shops five minutes’ drive
Liking the idea of a restaurant a few steps away from your tourer pitch? Your luck’s in at The Olive Tree Bistro Camp Site, found in the sweetly named Norfolk village of Little Snoring. Simply arrive, park up and decamp to the bistro fronting the pitches, and you’re all set for a relaxed meal of Mediterranean-inspired dishes and tapas sharing plates – accompanied by a decent list of wines and beers too. The bistro, closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, is popular so guests should book a table during busy periods. It's open between 11.45am and 8pm from Tuesday to Thursday, and from 11.45am to 5pm on Sundays. On Friday and Saturday, it's open from 11.45 am to 10pm. So, that’s food taken care of. What about the practicalities? Well, the site is a doddle to get to as it’s off the A148 between King’s Lynn and Cromer. Access is easy thanks to the width of the entrance gate, and the pitches are a mix of grass and gravel on a level field. Facilities are simple, stretching to a small toilet block with electric showers, a covered washing-up sink and drinking water on tap. On warmer days, you can eat outside at the picnic tables, and if you need more supplies of groceries, there are a couple of supermarkets in Fakenham (five minutes’ drive). The dog-lovers among you will be pleased to read that your pets are welcome on site too.

What customers say

This is a small, adults-only, dog-friendly site with spacious, level spots and great security. Guests rave about the super clean facilities and the on-site bistro's delicious food. Its central location is perfect for exploring North Norfolk. A few mention road noise and occasional shower temp/WiFi issues. Management's focus on safety and feedback is commendable.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked A small but neat and tidy site. Easy access from the A148, especially for us as this was our first trip in our new motor home. Adults only too. Level pitch with electric hook up.
Having the bistro on hand is a definite bonus and we had a very good evening meal.

Disliked Slight traffic noise from the main road, but you can’t have everything. We couldn’t find a tv signal or Wi-Fi but as we only stayed one night it didn’t really matter.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked Lovely little site. Warm welcome from the owner. We ate in the bistro on our first evening and I must say I had the best pie I have ever tasted, 🤤😋.
Good location for exploring Norfolk. And plenty of doggo walks from the site, we walked through little snoring, past the little airfield and found a wood.
This is going to be our go to location for a regularly trips to Norfolk, a little gem of a site.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Local attractions

The site is well-situated for jaunts along the North Norfolk coastline. Popular beaches include Sheringham (25 minutes’ drive), good for rock pooling with the kids on its swathe of golden sand. Cromer (35 minutes) is the spot for watersports, food stalls and walks along the Victorian pier, while Salthouse Beach (25 minutes) is a dog-friendly pebbled expanse where you can sometimes spot egrets and marsh harriers. If the weather’s not looking so good, head straight for Thursford Steam Museum (five minutes), with a heady mix of gaily painted carousels, steam engines and barrel organs that should keep the kids happy for hours. When the clouds disappear again, you can get rid of any pent-up energy go-karting through woodland, tree climbing and completing obstacle courses at ExTREEme Adventure (20 minutes). If you fancy a bet, Fakenham Racecourse (10 minutes) has meetings all year round. And as horse racing is the sport of kings, perhaps you’d like to see how our present monarch lives? Take a trip to Sandringham Estate (25 minutes) to tour sumptuous apartments in the stately royal residence, and have a wander through parkland designed by Geoffrey Jellicoe in the 1940s.
