Bircham Windmill Reviews
Bircham Windmill is situated in the peaceful Norfolk countryside, within 15 minutes of the coast and Sandringham Estate. Set on the grounds of a unique historic mill, guests can pick between grass tent and touring pitches, along with charming shepherd's huts for those who prefer glamping. Start the day with a full English at the onsite tea rooms, try baking your own bread, or climb the mill and admire the views. Dogs are welcome too!

Beautiful location with the windmill, animal paddocks and tearooms right next to the pitches. Really good, clean facilities with use of showers, toilets, kitchen (with fridge and washing machine), games room and play areas for the kids. It is a small site, which suited us perfectly. The evenings were spent star gazing as it benefits from dark skies all around. Really close to the local beaches too.
Highly recommend

Great place, we loved every minute. Good amenities, very well kept and maintained, shower mats, tea towels, and washing up liquid all provided. My boys (aged 5&9) loved the morning we spent doing a tour of the mill, grounds, learning to bake bread and feeding the animals. Great location too, with 3 or 4 beautiful beaches all within a 20 minute drive.
Brilliant campsite for the whole family

Good, quiet site with excellent café, friendly staff and clean facilities. It seemed families were in one area and couples in another, so the only noise we had at night were owls hooting and deer barking! Plus we got to see hares racing about in the adjoining field. Great location for exploring this part of Norfolk, and some great pubs are within a 15 minute drive.
Very good site

Lovely quiet campsite surrounded by fields. Saw muntjac, hares, pheasants and red kite. More suited to families with young children. Great bakery on site. Could do with more shower facilities.

Great place to stay for a night or two. Toilets were clean and the shop/bakery looked good. I think £32 + £8 a night for electric is a bit steep however. Very peaceful place - cool animals too!

Small campsite in a peaceful country location with a working windmill. Horse, donkey, sheep and chickens in the field next to the site. Easy drive to North Norfolk beaches. Ample country pubs with great quality food. (Book well in advance to secure a booking for evening meals if going out). Clean washing facilities and washing up facilities. Good entertainment room for kids. We go every year. One of our preferred sites.
Lovely location set in beautiful surroundings

What a lovely place to stay. I loved the activities within the windmill and the gorgeous homemade produce. Fresh produce on sale including locally made flour and eggs laid by the chickens. Breakfasts are lovely and the freshly baked cakes are absolutely gorgeous. Good sized pitches with hook ups. Facilities are very good including shower mats and tea towels for use with the availability of a washing machine. The staff are all lovely and very polite, genuinely had a lovely feel. The tea room gardens are lovely with lots to do and there are some sheep, a horse and a donkey which had my granddaughter fascinated. Would definitely stay here again.
A wonderful site, we will be returning for longer next year!!

Easy to find and was given clear directions to my pitch. Lovely clean site, proper showers with clean shower mats for each person to use and very peaceful overall. Made use of the on site games room and the tea rooms in the morning. As a solo visitor, I felt really safe.

We absolutely loved our stay at Bircham Windmill. The kids loved making bread, climbing the windmill and enjoying the bakery goods! The horse was an absolute favourite with the children. Such a beautiful location and a nice quiet site. Lots to do locally as well, exploring the beautiful coastline, deer safari and Sandringham.

We absolutely loved our stay at Bircham Windmill. We have a very active toddler who loves animals and cakes, the smile on his face throughout our long weekend tells you everything you need to know. Perfectly placed to visit the north Norfolk coastline and surrounding quaint villages, a fairly priced campsite fee and we never had to queue to use a toilet or shower because of the low number of pitches (15). The setup was just brilliant, we enjoyed it so much that we have just booked it up again for another long weekend in 2 weeks. Thank you for making our family feel right at home and for the amazing memories.

Second time we have stayed. Lovely clean site, great cafe and good facilities. The owners have thought of everything in providing small extras that you may have forgotten. Also a nice touch that there is use of a fridge and freezer. Ideally close to the coast.
Lovely, quaint camping

Really lovely camping at family-focused site with lots to do, especially with children. The windmill and baking own bread is a real bonus and the cafe has delicious food and there's a games room. The owners are friendly and obviously care that you have a good time, it's clean and well cared for, and a feel-good experience.
