We had such a fun time. Claire (our host) was lovely and made us feel incredibly welcome. We didn't bring anything to sit on (as we had taken public transport) and she was kind enough to lend us some benches for us to use on our patch. She ensured that our wood was kept dry for our campfire and that she was within reach should we need anything. We would definitely return again. Thank you for a lovely evening.

As first-time campers, we couldn't have chosen a better location! Everything, from start to finish was fantastic. The instructions on arrival were clear, we ordered our golf buggy carriage to collect us and our belongings from the car park. We were chauffeured by the lovely Rob, to a spot of our choice (right by the river so beautiful views) and we set up camp. For our first night, we made full use of the pizza van onsite and bought 2 delicious pizzas and drinks from the bar. In the morning, we used the Soul-Full Kitchen for our coffee shot. I think the energy from the staff in the coffee/breakfast van alone would have stood us in good stead for the day. Despite some queues, they were bright, full of energy and welcoming to every person. As we didn't have littlies with us, I can't vouch for the kids activities, but we fully enjoyed our Coached Paddleboarding session with Dom, our Sound Bath with Shereen, Yoga with Lisa and a Sauna provided by Charlotte. We had a quick dip in the river too. The toilets were cleaner than most service stations I've been into....all weekend! The showers were better in the morning than the evenings and if I really, really had to be pressed for an area of improvement, it would be the showers but hey, it's a campsite, not a 5* accommodation right?! We will absolutely be coming back for 2026, along with the rest of the family next time! Absolutely loved it....thank you sooo much! Natalie & Ross

Campsites for hikers near Norwich guide
Where to go
Around Norwich
There’s no need to travel far outside of Norwich to find quality campsites. Several glamping, camping, and caravan sites stand within walking distance of the town centre, so it’s easy to tick off city sightseeing along with more rural romps. To the east, Whitlingham Country Park leads into several wetland nature reserves, popular among birdwatchers and walkers.
The Broads
Arguably Norfolk’s premier outdoor attraction, the Broads National Park links Norwich to the coastline through an extensive network of navigable waterways. Luxury retreats, no-frills field sites, and family-friendly campgrounds line the riverbanks, providing plenty of overnight options for boaters, kayakers, bikers, and hikers.
Thetford Forest & the Brecks
Head a short way inland to discover the unusual mix of heathland, woodland, and balmy microclimate unique to the Brecks. Working farms, touring parks, and back-to-basics campgrounds provide a convenient base to explore the region’s nature-rich trails and rivers, which are ideal for a spot of wild swimming.
The Wash & Norfolk Coast AONB
On the edge of the Fens, the Wash estuary is a must-see for wildlife watchers, with its salt marshes and mudflats housing all manner of flora and fauna. Follow the coastline east into the Norfolk Coast AONB and discover quintessential English seaside, with holiday parks, glampsites, and wild-style coastal camps letting adventurers bed down beneath the dark Norfolk sky.
When to go
Norfolk is especially busy during the summer season, so if you’re keen to beat the crowds, consider timing your visit between September and April, when less foliage means better views of the region’s wildlife and you’re almost certain to secure a seat for a cosy pub lunch. Be aware that some camping sites close for winter.
Know before you go
- Norwich is around two hours’ train journey from London Liverpool Street, and the north coast further still. Consider catching a direct coach or, if you’re headed to a more secluded spot, bringing your own vehicle—though be aware that driving is discouraged in some of Norfolk’s rural areas.
- Several camping supply shops can be found in and around Norwich, though some campsites also hire gear out, so it’s worth checking before shelling out for new equipment. Similarly, many campsites offer boat or cycle hire, especially around the Broads.
