The journey from the main road to this lovely campsite is hairy to say the least and involves driving down half-a-mile of narrow lanes through dense woods. Happily, there are lots of passing places. Just don’t attempt to arrive before midday, just in case you might meet a fellow leisure vehicle head on for ‘a stand off until dawn’!

The beautiful coast line of North Norfolk is a short walk away from this campsite, while inland you find gently rolling countryside and, of course, the Broads. The beach is ideal for swimming and exploring rock pools, while the Shire Horse Centre is a stroll away. Here you can help feed the animals and handle the small ones, while twice-daily shows demonstrate harnessing and working demonstrations. There is even an indoor area for wet weather.

Nearby Worstead Village gave its name to the woollen fabric woven here by Flemish workers in the 14th century, and the pretty little seaside town of Sheringham has many attractions. You can wander through the little Victorian streets down to the harbour and beach, sample the local freshly-caught crabs and fish at one of the many restaurants, or take a boat ride out along the coast.

The famous golf course is here, and non-members are welcome. Cromer has a beautifully restored Pier, and a long promenade for leisurely walks, but the Museum is worth a visit, with the oldest fossil in Britain – the West Runton Elephant – on display, together with a huge archive of historic photographs and illustrations of the town, a Geology Gallery and a Victorian fisherman’s cottage – ideal for a wet day.

There are guided walks in summer evenings, suitable for all ages. Felbrigg Hall a National Trust 17th century house and grounds, is close by and has a walled garden, dovecote and orangery.

Also nearby is Alby Crafts, a unique centre for contemporary and traditional arts. Set in four acres of beautiful ponds and gardens, the converted flint buildings are home to unique working studios, shops and a gallery. You can browse here any time of the year, and take part in one of the many courses for a more hands-on approach.
