  • Well-maintained site with excellent facilities
  • A few miles from the Norfolk coast
  • Sixteen luxury bathrooms on site with individual showers and loos
Have you ever been to the Norfolk coast? Pine-ing to return or to see it for the first time? Come and stay at Pine Cones Caravan and Camping, near King's Lynn inland and Heacham and Hunstanton on the coastline – this is such a royally good region that King Charles and his cohorts have a pad at Sandringham just a mile away. If the king were camping, it's a fairly safe bet he would like the up to date and excellently kept amenities at Pine Cones too: 16 warm luxury bathrooms, all with their own shower, toilets, basin and storage racks; a roomy, indoors washing-up area with several sinks and plenty of drainer space; and a washing machine and dryer in a separate room to sort out the laundry. Once the essentials are sorted, send the kids off to the adventure playground to try out the treehouse, rope ladders and high level walkway, and settle down in the picnic area with coffee and eats… there's a coffee machine on site and the well-stocked shop sells a good selection of items including bread, milk, and fresh and frozen food. A selection of outdoor gym equipment is also available for the energetic holidaymaker. Off site, Pine Cones is about a mile from the nearest pub the Feathers, or trot off to award-winning the Coach and Horses. Both are in nearby Dersingham village, where there's also a supermarket, takeaway and coffee shop dishing up homemade cakes daily.

What customers say

Well-kept spot with ample, flat spots and a lekker vibe. Guests rave about the super clean, modern private ablutions. Great base for the Norfolk coast. Staff are always helpful. A few mentioned road noise and wanting more fenced dog areas, but most had a brilliant time. Top spot for chill time.

Sandy Acres electric grass and sand pitch (small)

Liked Large pitches, facilities were great. Reception was easy

Disliked The onsite food, fish and chips was woeful I late realised the local chippy would have delivered instead of the Iceland special.
Couldn’t understand bar closing at 9pm with the football in full flight but wasn’t a problem.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your high scoring review, we are glad that you would consider us again in the future.
We can confirm that we have just recently changed our fish supplier, so hopefully will be of a higher quality and more enjoyable on your next visit.
Thanks

Pine Views fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (comfort)

Liked Perfect location for visiting Sandringham and the Norfolk coast, with good size pitches. The covered picnic huts are a lovely touch too. We liked the individual shower and toilet facilities, never had an issue with not finding a vacant one. The site is near a large co-operative store which is walkable. We followed the map given to us in our welcome leaflet to walk to Sandringham, it is a lovely forest walk and it only takes about 25 minutes. We will be back…

Disliked The bar on site closes at 9pm

Jackie K.

Pine Views fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Clean and tidy site, small touches which made a real difference including large spotless shower/toilet block with music playing in each one, clothes hooks and a chair in each unit. Picnic table in each bay and some with covered heated areas. Some nice walks near by, great position for Sandringham and the local beaches. Friendly and helpful staff too.

Disliked We asked for a grass pitch, which must have been the smallest patch of grass on the site. Lovely dog walking on and off site. Not able to put our awning up on the gravel and no staff member onsite when we arrived at 5pm - not a reason not to use the site, but best to check
by phone in advance.

Recommend to friends Visit again

We would definitely stay there again.

Sandy Acres electric grass and sand pitch (small)

Liked Brilliant campsite just off the main road. We were lucky that our pitch was over to the back of the site so we didn’t hear any of the traffic. The toilet and shower area was lovely and the bar area was great. It was very easy to self check in and nice to have the barriers.

Disliked Nothing

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 – after a day at Sandringham, but of course, to wave at the king first... 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 the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – bring walking boots, crabbing nets and plenty of room for picnics.
