Liked: Lovely site - well-kept, peaceful, plenty of space. Everything you could need. Owner very helpful and attentive - sorted the electric upon our arrival and was more than willing to direct us to local amenities, walking routes and pubs throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend as a place to stop for a peaceful trip.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Lovely quiet camping meadow in a lovely quiet village. Mainly flat. Two portaloos and one portashower on site and also a small washing up area. The owner is great, very helpful and friendly. The village pub serves fabulous food in generous portions. Our fish was overhanging the edge of the plate! Booking ahead recommended. Lots of walking and cycling trails nearby and of course not far from Thetford Forest.

Disliked: Nothing. We will be back!

Local attractions

There are lots of hikes to get stuck into from Acorn Meadow. Don’t overlook the trails of Thetford Forest Park (10 minutes’ drive), which has around 45,000 acres of dense forestry to explore. The forest’s namesake, Thetford (20 minutes), is just as splendid in a less green way. Some of its top spots include the Dad’s Army Museum, the Ancient House Museum and Thetford Priory. King's Lynn (50 minutes) is a household name in Norfolk. Check out the merchants’ houses and the Custom House from its heyday. If you time your trip right, you could snap up some good local products at the Sunday and Tuesday markets. Norwich (50 minutes) is also packed with things to do should you want a rest from the walks. Tick off all the many historic sites, like Norwich Cathedral, Saxon Marketplace and the St. Ethelbert’s and Erpingham gates. After a little rest stop or an easy afternoon activity? Melsop Farm Park (15 minutes) has some lovely little play areas and a café for a family-friendly and budget-friendly afternoon out.
