Set on a traditional family-run farm in rural Norfolk, Snettisham Meadows is on the outskirts of the pretty village of Snettisham and short drive away from North Norfolk's beautiful white sandy beaches.
Animal-mad campers, form an orderly queue please, as this 329-acre farm has several attractions up its sleeve for you, including meet-and-greets with pigs and ponies, lamb feeding in spring and deer safaris. There’s also a dog paddock for rent so four-legged companions can have a frisk around, and an area on the camping field is reserved for guests with dogs.
Campfires and barbecues are permitted and you can borrow firepits from the site owners. Logs are also available to buy. The site is only 10 minutes’ walk from a village pub if you fancy a change of scenery.
After a fun-filled day exploring this lovely part of Norfolk, come back to your pitch and keep your fingers crossed for clear skies and some serious stargazing.
Facilities include washing-up sinks, a small shop at reception for essential supplies and tourist information, USB phone charging and a freezer for ice packs.

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

Rosehip Campsite is just great.
Secluded woodland pitches with a balance of shade and sunshine. Clean and well thought out composting loos with hand washing area. Mains water as you enter the site.
Highlights for us were watching the many butterflies and also the bats as dusk turned to nighttime.
If, like us you love nature and peace you’ll love this campsite.

we loved the site we did camp close to the water but in hindsight the facilities are attached to the house by the gate so was a bit of a trek to and from the pitch but all in all we had a fantastic time Andy was brilliant took us to our pitch and gave us a run down of the site and helped me put with a set of alen keys so i could fix my motorbike thanks Andy 😊👍

Absolutely brilliant campsite. Everything you could ever need and it’s set out that there’s plenty of space and breaks between different areas. Very easy to find and there are a few shops and pubs within a walking distance.
Loved that the wood is available to purchase on site as means you don’t need to lug your own. If anything there was too much wood that I had to leave some!
Nice to have a few toilets and showers and they’re all separate so you get your own space. Good facilities to wash up as well.
Can’t wait to come back. Great price and I love that you can book single nights as most places is two minimum.

Perfect campsite for a weekend of Paddleboarding kayaking and wild swimming. The site facilities are immaculate no matter what time of the day. The river is easily accessible and beautiful. We had the best couple of days and will definitely be returning very soon.

Clare could not have been more hospitable, she really went above and beyond for us. The site is absolutely beautiful and the facilities and layout are brilliant. We took our 3 year old and she had a fantastic time playing, cycling her balance bike and spotting all the local wildlife including the resident ducks.
We are most definitely planing a return visit.
Thank you Clare from the Daleys.

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! 😊

I needed a few days of peace and .Canal Camping delivered. A flat site with hedges and unmowed grass providing gaps between the large pitches. Lovely staff and spotless loos, showers and washing up station. Rules stating no music and quiet after 10pm means the loudest sound is the birds (expect a deafening dawn chorus). Right on the canal so you can kayak all the way to the Northern Broads, and near the Weavers Way for pleasant walking.

It's a very pretty campsite, with spacious pitches and clean facilities. There weren't many people and were quite spread out - brilliant that everyone respected the 10:30 quiet time.
We brought our own SUP and were able to enjoy the river.
The shady "fairy garden" saved us when it was really hot! Debs and Hannah were always happy to help and it was easy to get hold of them, nothing ever seemed too much trouble.
