Rosehip Woods Campsite

England · 6 units · Tents, Motorhomes
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

4. Go Wild Camping & Glamping Thetford
Brandon, England · 300 units · Tents, Motorhomes
🌲 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.

My grandchildren and I have stayed at Brakehill Lodge Farm twice. It has proved to be our happy place. Peaceful, and just remote enough to escape the madding crowd.
Clare is a considerate host. She loves her home and all the nature it encompasses.
Try it...you will love ir too.😀

Lovely site with very clean facilities. Extra bonus was using the fire pit. Also a very nice looking butchers and cafe on site.
The only down side was the noise on the Saturday night. The camp is not staffed and the gate is left open. At 2:30am there was a lot of noise coming from a group of other campers who had arrived back late. This included noise from cars with one car in particular driving very fast around the field. To say this was unsettling would be an understatement as it was difficult to know if this person may have been under the influence of alcohol due to the speed and also the fear of the car ploughing into a tent. There is a notice up saying no noise after 10pm however this was obviously ignored. The Sunday night was much quieter except for the early morning wake up call from a couple of military aircraft at 6:30am!
I would happily visit this site again if I were to visit the area it’s just a shame that one group of people couldn’t respect other campers.

This has got to be one of the best campsites ever. The facilities are incredible, surrounded by trees, walkable distance to a brewery, cafe and broad and never too busy even when fully booked. I'm actually hesitant to write this review as I want to keep the secret to myself!

We really enjoyed camping at Plum Camping. It's a basic site which we particularly like, with toilets, showers and wash up facilities. We loved being able to use one of the fire pits free of charge, just buying wood bits back transfer or honesty box. Point to note, lots of info says it's a tent only campsite, but whilst we were there, I'd say it was 50:50 tents/campers and motorhomes.

Sweet little open field with some meadowy patches. Basic extras all appreciated, fridge and freezer, charger ports etc.
The baskets of well chopped wood were a great touch, so much easier to burn than whole logs! If only they also had firelighters... Twenty minutes of slightly damp notepad paper knots later and we finally had fire 😂
Given it's location we expected a hum from the roads so that wasn't a problem for us. I just wish we had managed to get some of their delicious sounding cider.

Lovely peaceful spot with good pitches facilities were good, though one of the showers was cold water only which I didn’t mind but not for everyone! Great to have use of a fridge and good washing facilities. Nice to feel out in the countryside but five minutes from a big Tesco and short drive from Norwich city centre and the broads

This was our first trip in our new camper van and my first ever proper camping experience. It could not have been lovelier, surrounded by wild flower meadows, butterflies, bees and a proud black bird we had the most perfect stay. The campsite is so well maintained, friendly and in a fab location, we would not hesitate to recommend and will most definitely be back.

My daughter and I spent one night at this lovely site, and wished we could have stayed longer!
It was simple, peaceful, beautiful, good location. We especially appreciated the lovely clean toilets and showers, washing up area, and the little shed with fridge, freezer, and power points! A simple quiet campsite perfectly for our needs. Little touches like hand soap and washing up liquid made everything easier. And the farm shop was great. We’d come again and stay longer!
