🌲 Go Wild Thetford: Forest Camping & Glamping Escape
Go Wild Camping & Glamping Thetford, managed by mYminiBreak, provides a truly back-to-basics woodland escape on the Norfolk/Suffolk border. Nestled deep within the towering pine and broadleaf woodlands of Thetford Forest, the site offers a peaceful, natural atmosphere perfect for adventurers and nature lovers.
🌳 High Lodge Proximity and Activities
The site's main advantage is its location just a short walk (approx. 300 meters) from High Lodge, the main Forestry England visitor center. This allows immediate access to a wealth of activities:
Go Ape! high ropes course.
Extensive network of walking, running, and cycling trails (suitable for all abilities).
Play areas, Archery, Disc Golf, a café, and seasonal events.
The forest itself, as Britain's largest lowland pine forest, is a wildlife haven known for its deer, unique flora, and clear, starry night skies.
🐕 Back-to-Basics & Dog-Friendly
Go Wild embraces a rustic, "wild-style" camping philosophy.
Size & Pitches: The site is a large, spacious campsite offering plenty of room to relax. Pitches are available for tents, campervans, motorhomes, and caravans, alongside glamping options including rustic Shepherd's Huts and Bell Tents (some with electricity for small appliances).
Dog-Friendly: The campsite is super dog-friendly, welcoming four-legged companions on all pitches, with vast forest trails accessible directly from the site.
Core Facilities: Essential amenities are provided, including shared showers and toilets, fresh drinking water, and waste disposal.
Campfires: Campfires and BBQs are encouraged and allowed, making for traditional, memorable evenings under the stars.
🗺️ Local Area
The site is an ideal base for exploring the historic Brecks region. Nearby attractions include Grimes Graves (Neolithic flint mine), Thetford Priory ruins, and the Dad's Army Museum in Thetford town.
Go Wild Camping offers an authentic outdoor experience where you can fall asleep in the forest and wake up ready to hit the trails.

Housedean Farm is a lovely site in the rolling hills of the South Downs and I'd recommend it.
I'd also recommend booking directly with the site rather than through Hipcamp who will not stop emailing me. I need one email when I book a campsite - the booking confirmation. No matter if you opt out of marketing emails, you'll get at least five unnecessary emails as follows:
"Enhance your trip with extras"
"Your trip is coming up! Here's who's onboard."
"Reminder for your trip to Grass Pitch"
"Time to pack your bags!"
"What did you think of Housedean Farm Campsite?"
There's just no stopping the spam from this company
