Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked The location was easy to find using Sat Nav. We pitched our tent right next to the car which was very helpful. Very short walk to the beach. The site manager made sure we was happy told me where everything was when we arrived. It is a beautiful peaceful clean, safe location.

Amazing quiet site super close to a lovely beach.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Location location location!
A quiet and flat site that's just a minute's walk from the beach. Welcome was friendly, the facilities were really clean and the hot water was plentiful. Choice of places to pitch and lots of space to run around if that's your thing. The beach here is wonderful and the site and beach are dog friendly even in the summer months.
Just a short 10 minute stroll to the cafes and arcade in Sea Palling but far enough away to be quiet and away from the busyness.
Disliked Nothing - it was a perfect place for our stay.
