  • Award-winning, peaceful rural site 15 minutes from Fakenham
  • Pitches and main facilities all wheelchair accessible
  • Half an hour's drive from the beaches of the Norfolk coast
The kilns may be old but the facilities – them’s all set for the 21st century. In fact, The Old Brick Kilns has got things so well sorted it’s even won awards for its offerings. All your everyday needs have been considered by the thoughtful folk at this peaceful rural site: there's a launderette that takes card payments, a tourist info point stacked with handy pointers and first-rate washrooms with underfloor heating. The shop’s shelves are filled with various essentials and treats, and you can call in a day ahead to order warm bread and fresh croissants for a leisurely breakfast. If you’re here at the right time, site staff can sort your evening drinks too: the bar is open on certain nights, with ales and ciders up for grabs. Should you choose to lounge about on site for a bit (as indeed you should…) there are wildflower meadows to skip through and a fishing pond that you’re welcome to dangle your rod into for a small charge. A playground, table tennis and games room are all on hand for the entertainment of small people. This nifty Norfolk location, 15 minutes from Fakenham, has you well placed for all sorts of outings too – beaches, nature reserves and stately homes are all within a half-hour drive. Guests travelling with wheelchairs or buggies will be chuffed to note that this is a pleasingly accessible site, with plenty of ramps and firm pathways to aid manoeuvres around the place.

What customers say

A neat, tranquil park with spotless ablutions (showers/toilets are great!). Pitches are roomy, staff are lekker, and the shop/bar are handy. Location's spot-on for seeing Norfolk. Only downside is a tight access road and dodgy Wi-Fi now and then. Mostly rave reviews, calling it top quality and good value.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked We loved how quiet and well kept the site was. Not to mention how modern the facilities were. Unfortunately we didn’t have the chance to experience Barney’s Bar however, the menu looked good and it was busy.

Disliked There wasn’t much to say about disliking the site. One thing to mindful of which isn’t a site issue is the lack of mobile data in the Norfolk area.

Electric gravel touring pitch (pull-thru)

Liked Sehr gepflegter, ruhiger Platz. Die Stellplätze sind eben und kiesbedeckt, die Sanitäranlagen auf hohem Standard und sehr sauber (!). Das Personal durchweg freundlich und hilfsbereit (Danke George!). Der Pub ist leider nur an vier Tagen geöffnet, das Essen war sehr lecker. Die Preise sind moderat.
Der Platz ist ideal um die Küste von Norfolk zu erkunden. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, vielen herzlichen Dank. 🌸

Local attractions

The good folk of Norfolk know a thing or two about gorgeous coastlines, so it’s highly recommended that you bag a bit of beach time while you’re here: the great sandy swathes at Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham are both about half an hour away by car. With coast comes wildlife, and the places to find creatures around here are the RSPB reserve at Titchwell Marsh (35 minutes’ drive) and the boat trips that leave Morston Quay (20 minutes) to see England’s biggest seal colony, which hangs out on or around Blakeney Point. It’s not all about the coast, however – inland’s got plenty of treats to offer too: give the royals a wave at Sandringham (half an hour’s drive), wander through 100 acres of fragrant lavender fields in Heacham (35 minutes) and sniff out some history at medieval Walsingham (15 minutes) or the stately homes Blickling Estate and Houghton Hall (both 25 minutes).
