Rosehip Wood Campsite is a nature rich, off-grid wild campsite set in a peaceful woodland. Camp in secluded clearings surrounded by trees and bushes and be sheltered from the wind or hot sun when necessary. You can spend your evenings staring into a crackling campfire as fire pits are provided and firewood can be purchased on site.
This site is completely enclosed by fences so kids can roam free-range-style, make dens using branches and explore the 'secret cedar hideaway'. There is a field with a football goal for recreational activities and adjoining footpaths for road free walks.
It is tucked away on the outskirts of the pretty Norfolk village of West Dereham. This beautiful rewilding project offers the unspoilt simplicity and tranquillity of wild camping within the grassy clearings of a quiet mixed woodland and balanced with just enough facilities to make camping fun and comfortable including fresh water and compost toilets.
All Rosehip Wood’s pitches are family friendly and allow BBQs and campfires.
Your hosts invite you to wander along mown paths, through grassy clearings and wildflowers. The woodland has been planted with lots of nuts and fruits for both wildlife and humans to enjoy. As the sun sets, unwind, and enjoy starlit skies unspoilt by light pollution against the distant calls and barks of local wildlife.
The site has no lighting so don’t forget your torch if you plan on an evening amble. Downham Market is around 4 ½ miles away offering supermarkets, a market, food and drink in the town’s historic pubs and a range of restaurants. It also has a train station from which your hosts will be happy to pick you up if you are coming camping without a car. If you need an extra tent this can be rented at an extra cost.
Walkers and cyclists will find maps and information available on site pointing you in the direction of local routes over farmland, lanes, long

We had a lovely stay, left to our own devices but comfortable in the knowledge any requests where either a 20 second walk to reception or a text away. Wild camping, with access to amenities on site, a cozy couple of nights nestled within a wildflower meadow. Nicely spaced pitches, quiet nights, and freshly made pizzas on site. We will be back! 😊

Loved this campsite and was sad to leave, spacious pitches with fire pit and own composting loo. Friendly owners where always in reach if something is needed. Kids loved feeding baby lambs and was glad to have this experience. Definitely will be back one day again 🤩

Great stay at Plum Camping! It’s well-maintained with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, nice space, and plenty of firepits for a campfire in the evenings. Love the easy self-service setup. Just be aware there is a bit of road noise, some of the showers were cold, and it was a shame the farm shop was shut Sunday and Monday. Still highly recommend!

This was our 3rd year staying and we'll be coming again. We are always impressed by the cleanliness of the site and facilities. The little shop has all you need. We love that we can hire fire pits and purchase wood. The site is also great for kids, with our boys easily making friends to play with. It was very hot this year, so we spent a lot of time in the nearby woods, den building. Thoroughly recommend this site! We plan to be back next year 🥰

Brilliant campsite and looking forward to going back. Quiet and excellent showers and toilets, very clean. Beautiful setting and within the country park and yet so close to Norwich city centre. Perfect for either staying put and going for walks or for exploring. Nearly village of Trowse has good pub and food options.

Excellent site with plenty of space, facilities are also excellent and clean.
Its a great place to stay and use as a base if visiting Norfolk, within easy reach of superstores and A47.
However, the White House Farm Village shops were not open on Sunday and Monday on a Bank Holiday weekend, this didnt affect our stay but was a bit of a disappointment.
Overall a good site and would definitely use again.

Excellent site. Good clean facilities and plenty of space, ideal base if visiting Norwich and surrounding areas.
However, White House Farm Village shops were closed saturday and sunday on a bank holiday weekend which while it didnt affect us was a bit disappointing.

I had an amazing stay at this campsite. The location is truly beautiful, and the whole surrounding area feels peaceful and special.
The campsite itself is like something out of a fairytale – more like a carefully maintained park than a typical campsite. Everything is exceptionally clean and clearly very well looked after.
The couple who run the place are incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything you might need.
There is a great variety of pitches, so everyone can find the perfect spot – whether you prefer an open meadow, a quiet forest area, or a more park-like setting.
I enjoyed every single minute of my stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and beautiful camping experience.

A whimsically designed campground. From the layout, including wildflowers between spots, to the names of the cabins. Plenty of showers and toilets, all kept clean, with sustainability encouraged. The staff were incredibly helpful and meet you upon arrival. Easy to find. 10/10 would return!

A lovely, quiet, basic site. Has all the necessities like flushing toilets and hot showers, but not much else. Fire pits with cooking grills free to use, seasoned firewood available to purchase. 2 minute walk to farm shop for fresh meat and veg, or supermarket 5 mins drive up the road. Plenty of space to set up, no restrictions on pitches, just a general expectation of being courteous to other campers. Grass cut to a good level, ground mostly flat. Would definitely return. Great value site.

Sadly the weather was shocking for our trip and there were only another couple of campers so after battling with our set-up in high winds after enjoying a fabulous coffee and cake in the farm shop cafe in arrival (beautiful shop and cafe) - we finally were about to have a brew outdoors and take in the lovely orchards that became our view. Sadly the winds kept getting stronger and as the sun was going down we made the decision not to stay as the winds were only going to get stronger. Also lack of other campers and morale to keep us going we left and headed home. Nice facilities, toilets were clean and washing/cleaning set up looks good and loved the area that held the fridge and charging points. Just a shame the UK weather let us down - for our very first camping trip.
