  • Family-friendly campsite on a working Snettisham farm in North Norfolk
  • Sandringham Estate 10 minutes’ drive and Holme Beach 15 minutes
  • Farm park and dog paddock on site; village pub 10 minutes’ walk
Set on a traditional family-run farm in rural Norfolk, Snettisham Meadows is on the outskirts of the pretty village of Snettisham and 15 minutes’ drive from North Sea beaches in the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Animal-mad campers, form an orderly queue please, as this 329-acre farm has several attractions up its sleeve for you, including meet-and-greets with pigs, pony rides, lamb feeding in spring and deer safaris. There’s also a dog paddock for rent so your four-legged companions can have a frisk around, and an area on the camping field is reserved for guests with dogs. Facilities include a toilet and shower block (with no hot water between November and February), washing-up sinks with cold water, a small shop at reception for essential supplies and tourist information, USB phone charging and a freezer for ice packs. Campfires and barbecues are permitted, and you can borrow firepits and buy logs for kindling from the site owners. After a fun-filled day exploring this lovely part of Norfolk, come back to your pitch and keep your fingers crossed for clear skies and some serious stargazing. The site is only 10 minutes’ walk from a popular village pub, where you are guaranteed a warm welcome should you fancy a spot of lunch or an evening pint.

Lisa H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: Snettisham seemed to have something for everyone. Short drive to many local attractions . As it says it’s set on a farm with animals around you. Dog park for rent via website but also plenty of walking can be done from the site. Clean and tidy with flat, large pitches and very good value. Lots of birds to listen to, even had a hedgehog visit our pitch. Something for everyone, Would stay again

Disliked: Minor points - no personal touch, didn’t see owner/member of staff during our 2 night visit. Very limited opening on reception (September). No means of drying your hands in the toilets and bin overflowing as empty ones locked.

Liked: Lovely, spacious field with wonderful views on all sides. Great functional, no frills facilities and good grub and super service from the Tearooms. Highly recommend booking a Deer Safari for a close encounter and feeding frenzy with their gorgeous herd of Red Deer.
