We are a quiet, non-commercial site with spacious pitches, a truly relaxing place to unwind. We love the natural feel of the site with loads of trees, hedges and grass, set around the old farmyard and buildings.

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring Pitches Jun 2025

We very much enjoyed our stay at Walnut Farm, a warm welcome, clear instructions and a good pitch. The facilities were excellent and everything had clear instructions how to use etc. the bonus was the easy walk to the beach and the river walk all on their private land. We would stay again. Thank you.

Brilliant campsite

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring Pitches May 2025

We had a lovely overnight stay. There is a 15 minute walk along farm path that leads to a golden sandy beach which was empty, even on a Saturday in half term!! Our kids had so much fun running around all afternoon, the only thing was when we got back we were in need of a shower, but hadn't thought to purchase the tokens from reception while they were open 🤣 We just chucked bottled water over them and it was fine. The toilets were clean and the washing up facilities were good, they had even provided washing up liquid. The goats are very cute and friendly! Thank you for a great stay!

Lovely peaceful stay

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring Pitches May 2025

We have visited before and again enjoyed our stay. Good size pitch and facilities good. Shower and toilet block clean. You have to buy shower credits but a £1 for 10 mins is nothing to moan about. A small shop at reception with ice creams so the granddaughters were happy. Site owners were welcoming and friendly. Location good for walking to the beach which is about 10/15 mins and we got to appreciate the lovely wild flowers and butterflies on the way. A lovely weekend and would definitely recommend this site if you're wanting a peaceful site.

Things to do on site and in the Norwich area

There are many local attractions for families, couples and nature lovers. The beaches of Norfolk are a stone's throw away (15 minutes), and absolutely beautiful. Most of these are dog friendly, too, so bring your pup with you.

The golden sand of Waxham beach (15 minutes) is the closest and is never crowded, You will almost always see seals in the sea all year round, and then from late October to early February a short walk along the beach will reward you with the spectacle of the Famous Horsey seal colony up on the beach for pupping season. During this time please do keep your distance and keep your dogs on a lead.

The idyllic Norfolk Broads (25 minutes) are a lovely day out for those looking to take to the water, with great activities including boating, sailing, paddle boarding and canoeing all available.

Local activities include:

  • National Trust Horsey Windpump (5 minutes)
  • Walking the Norfolk Coast Path (15 minutes)
  • Hemsby Fun Park (15 minutes)
