What customers say

Basic, friendly campsite, great value near beach & coastal paths. Peaceful vibe, campfires welcome. Facilities a bit dated for some, but others found them clean & functional with hot showers. Welcoming owners a highlight.

Michelle B.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Nothing

Disliked As another reviewer already added, the pictures are not accurate, we are from an equestrian background, so more than used to an outside environment. This site in our opinion should not be on this website, having wildcamped at numerous locations would consider that a better option. To say it's an eyesore with dilapidated facilities would be an understatement, in all honesty I wouldn't wildcamp here, packed in like sardines, views of steptoes yard, filthy , absolutely stinks like raw sewrage, abandoned caravans and vehicles to look at, drove in and immediately out and found somewhere else to stay . The guy that met us was very informative about the local area and very nice , but I would not in any way shape or form recommend this site

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Basic facilities, but adequate and kept clean . Pleasant field not crowded. Easy access to coastal path and 20 minutes stroll to Trimingham beach. Space to walk the Labrador adjacent. Owners were welcoming . Will definitely be back.

Disliked One shower too cramped and 1( of 3) toilet out of action.

I really liked this campsite & would stay there again.

Rob W.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Lovely Campsite in nature & fresh sea air. Great Location in a quiet area & a short walk to the beach. Stunning views from the Campsite as it’s high up. The owner was a really nice guy, very welcoming & helpful. Basic facilities but very reasonably priced overall. Cheap & good firewood for sale.

Disliked Facilities were basic but fine & I can’t complain for the price & location.

The site is very basic. Don't expect much and you will be fine.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Close to the beach.

Disliked Toilets and showers. Toilets were inadequate and kept blocking. Only three available and on some occasions only one usable. I did notice that the issues were addressed quickly, however they continued to get blocked again.

Only two showers. Very very basic. Glad I bought along my flip-flops

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Relaxing and natural. Allowed fire pits. Running water and toilets. Not for people who like kellingheath and clipsbey but that suits me as I only need somewhere to pitch my tent. Felt safe and nice people on site this weekend. Everyone respectful of being quiet at night.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Proximity to Trimington beach

Disliked Entrance is like a scrapyard. First thing I did when we arrived (a 4 hour trip) was burst into tears and check availability on other sites (there was none).
Toilets - there are only 3, one was permanently out of order and another didnt flush.
Washing up area is disgusting, concrete "sink" within inadequate drainage and no hot water, full of filth.
Showers are down a very long dirt track and are filthy. However its the only hot water on site.
NEVER AGAIN.

Local attractions

Beach days on the brain? No worries – sandy shores are on the horizon, whether it’s Mundesley beach's (five minutes’ drive) safe swimming waters, beach huts and watersports or Cromer’s beach and traditional pier (15 minutes), a popular crabbing spot for novices and pros, by the way. Sea Palling Beach (35 minutes) is another watersports haven with plenty of swims and sandy dunes in store. It's likely you’ve already met the site’s alpacas, but if it’s monkeys, pumas and peccaries you’d like to see next, Amazona Zoo (15 minutes) has a cluster of South American animals. You’re sure to spot some creepy crawlies and feathered animals around the woodland and parkland walks, the lake and walled garden at Felbrigg Hall, Gardens and Estate (15 minutes) too. If you’ve kids to keep occupied, they might enjoy clambering across the treehouse adventure park at BeWILDerwood Norfolk (half an hour) or gliding across the boating lake at North Lodge Park (10 minutes). Heard of Henry Blogg, a famous lifeboat crew member who performed some fearsome rescues? The RNLI Henry Blogg Museum (15 minutes) remembers his life and some of his craziest rescues.
