  • Family-friendly site two miles from Mundesley beach, with dogs welcome
  • A 15-minute drive from Cromer and half an hour to Wroxham Broad
  • Under 10 minutes’ walk from a village pub and playing field
Nosing around for a north Norfolk break that is well-based for countryside walks, crabbing, cruising The Broads and chilling at the beach? Try Meadow View Camping and Caravan Site, a family-friendly site on the coast just two miles from Mundesley. To be precise, it’s just a 40-minute walk (or a five-minute drive) from its beach and Victorian seafront, where there are beach huts. The site is in a peaceful Norfolk village called Trunch. You might be quite familiar with the place by the end of your stay – and happily so – because it has a social club hosting live music and two beer festivals per year, as well as a welcoming pub with fodder, beer, good music and other events. As if that isn't enough already, the village also has countryside walks, a playing field and a 15th-century church. No need to leave furry family members behind at Meadow View Camping and Caravan Site, as it's dog-friendly. Barbecues and firepits are also both welcome (just note that only firepits hired from Meadow View are permitted). You should have plenty of good tales for the firepit, with there being so many beaches nearby: Trimingham (10 minutes’ drive), Cromer (15 minutes) and Sheringham (25 minutes), for example. Walcott beach, 10 minutes' drive away, is a fine choice, with a café, ice cream parlour, fish and chips shop and a post office with a shop all along the seafront. In Mundesley, there are pubs, restaurants, cafés, takeaways, another social club, arcades, miniature golf, a petrol station and a supermarket – very handy indeed. Just remember that this is a rural location next to a working farm, so there are likely to be country smells and sounds at times.

Helen S.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Free option to pitch anywhere and a great big field to do so. Good toilet and shower facilities, single and multisex options. Very clean and a lot of space. We were able to stay as long as we needed on day of departure which is a great touch. I loved the fact that the owners pootle around in a golf buggy to provide fire pits and other odds and ends to your door. Really great welcome was made. Fabulous vigilance over speed limits and had a good watchful eye over how place is used.

Disliked The free to roam aspect is good and there are goal posts to be moved around for children use, but they moved them to areas which may not want that disturbance, however the campsite owner was vigilant of this and did maintain a calm aspect

Friendly check in Spotless clean toilets and hot water Great site Price £22…

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Very friendly and helpful hosts.
Loads of space, very quiet and peaceful.
Good location for the nearby coast and places of interest.
Good, clean facilities with showers and toilets.
We stayed an extra night as we liked it so much. Good value for money.
Mundesley has a great fish & chip shop by the Ship pub where I was able to get gluten free.
Our dog loved the beach.

Disliked The footpath into Mundesley was heavily overgrown with wheat making it impassable. Our walk into Mundesley was therefore entirely by road.

Lisa R.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Clean showers and loos with easy access to water and hits of fire pits.
Very accommodating when choosing a spot to set up.
A lovely pub within a few minutes walk and Mundesley beach (and pub!) a beautiful 50 minute walk.
We’ll definitely be back.

Local attractions

When it comes to getting stuck into the north Norfolk coast, you might want to get a tick list going…there’s Overstrand beach and Walcott beach to see and crabbing on the pier in Cromer (all within 15 minutes' drive). Keep ticking them off: the lighthouse in Happisburgh (20 minutes), seal spotting at Blakeney Point (40 minutes) and Waxham (35 minutes) or sandy beaches at Sea Palling (half an hour) and Wells-next-the-Sea (55 minutes). The latter has a gorgeous fishing port running seal-watching trips. Inland’s just as excellent. There’s a generous handful of National Trust properties within driving distance, plus ways to get out onto The Broads in Wroxham (half an hour). You might want to board the Bure Valley Railway there or join The North Norfolk Steam Railway in Sheringham (25 minutes). For all you budding historians, Weybourne (half an hour) has the Muckleburgh Military Collection too. Family-friendly ventures are easily sourced, with various entertainments in North Walsham (10 minutes), treetop adventures at BeWILDerwood Norfolk (half an hour) and all the attractions in Great Yarmouth (50 minutes) like Pleasure Beach, Britannia Pier and Sea Life Great Yarmouth.
