Waveney Wild Woods and Camp

No availability at present on Pitchup.com 10 8 reviews

Woodland pitch and clear area between fallen trees

Wild camping on a farm in Waveney Valley three miles from the coast
A five-minute drive from Oulton Broad and 10 minutes from Lowestoft
Pubs and restaurants within a mile or two; firepits on site

Set down in a wildlife haven at Waveney’s Wild Wood and Camp. Once you’ve slung a hammock between the trees or pitched your tent under the canopies, this family-friendly farm site is well-situated for historic Broads landscapes and the Norfolk coast… as it’s three miles away from the coast and a five-minute drive from Oulton Broad where you may hire out a boat to glide along the waterways. Leave no trace, as this site is geared up for guests to get back to nature. There are both toilet and shower facilities and composting toilets on site, as well as a water tap next to the car park. Mobile reception is patchy, and there's no electricity, so mind that you pack a torch to pick out your way around when it’s dark. There are firepits and braziers on site too, paired with rather splendid views over the marshlands of The Broads (a national park and Site of Special Scientific Interest). A 15-minute drive away, there’s a large nature reserve owned by the Suffolk Wildlife Trust with all manners of birds and winter waders. And on site, the woodlands often welcome badgers, foxes, muntjac, marsh harrier and barn owls, as well as the occasional Chinese Water deers, hares and kingfishers. This is a pretty peaceful site with laidback vibes – so you’ll have a nice base near the Suffolk and Norfolk border with locally produced food, wine and beer within a couple of miles, and easy access to the Waveney Way in Lowestoft (10 minutes’ drive), part of the 93-mile Angles Way footpath with links Great Yarmouth, Thetford, the Peddars Way and the Norfolk Coast Path.

Brock primitive forest floor tent campsite (woodland)

Liked: A peaceful and private pitch, impeccably prepared by Peter and Helen. Beautifully clean and raked, immaculate toilet and the additional use of other spaces on site should we want. The hosts couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. It was all fabulous!

Liked: We had a beautiful private spot with our own firepit and seating area. All campers are well spaced far apart so it is like you're camping on your own. Really enjoyed our stay will be recommending to friends.

Holly Hill primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked: The campsite is amazing in all respects. The scenery is stunning, the owner is friendly and knowledgeable about the area and the pitches where you camp are extremely spacious. We were in the camper van pitch and loved sitting by the fire listening to the muntjacs and owls in the distance.

Hart primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Fantastic campsite. Very quiet with great views and private pitches. Very friendly owners. As it is wild camping the facilities are very basic, but that is what we were after. It is in several walking paths so you can easily walk to nearby villages/towns. I also recommend sitting by the fire pit and watching the wildlife in the evening, there are red deer locally. Recommended.

Hart primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Lovely hosts. Very quiet and peaceful place - we were tucked away in a secluded area and so even though there were other campers, it felt like we had the place to ourselves. Fab views as well.
Good composting toilet.
