  • 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.

Pine Views camping pod

Liked Pod was great for a few days away site was very clean and tidy and the bar area was lovely. Staff were very friendly and engaging.

Disliked No water near the pods

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review and for scoring us 9 out of 10.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay in one of our pods, found the site clean and tidy, and enjoyed spending time in Ben's Bar. It's also wonderful to know that our team made you feel welcome – they'll really appreciate your kind comments.

Thank you also for your feedback regarding the water point. The nearest drinking water tap for the pods is approximately 35 metres away. We appreciate that having a tap even closer could be more convenient, and we'll certainly keep your comments in mind as we continue to invest in and improve the site.

We hope to welcome you back to Pinecones again soon.

Pine Views FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite (comfort)

Liked Not a lot really.
Barriers need to be ANPR as anyone knowing the codes could come onsite even if not staying onsite.
The dog walk was the only thing I liked.

Disliked The sardines effect of the pitches, the noises from the roads.
The electric metering.
The pitch we should have had was backed onto main road reception changed it to a cramped pitch with no grass, surrounded by trees , dead leaves, fallen fruit & lots of noisy pigeons, the waste water drain was to far from caravan & we don't carry that length of water pipe.

We left the day after arrival as it wasn't for us.
What a waste of money!!!

Lovely dog walk to the right of the kissing gate with good wildlife sightings,

From the manager: Thank you for your wonderful review.

We're so pleased you enjoyed our clean bathroom and washing-up facilities, as well as the clear directions to your pitch. It's great to hear that you made the most of the deer and bird watching hide and enjoyed spotting the local wildlife.

We're also delighted that our suggested local walks were useful and that you discovered the dog walk to the right of the kissing gate. It's one of our favourite routes too, with plenty of opportunities to see deer, birds and other wildlife along the way.

Thank you for mentioning the road noise. As you found, although we're close to the bypass, it does tend to become much quieter at night, allowing most of our guests to enjoy a peaceful stay.

We really appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you and your dog 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.
