Aerial view of The Hollies Leisure Resort with direct step access to the beach

With direct step access to the beach, The Hollies Leisure Resort offers an idyllic location on the Norfolk Coast, ten minutes from Lowestoft. There are non electric grass tent pitches on the Seaside Field, great for easy beach access, or a combination of electric grass and hardstanding pitches across four other fields. Within 15 minutes of the Broads and Southwold, days are best spent by the sea or enjoying a boat trip. Dogs are also welcome!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Pitches (Seaside Field)Jul 2026

Lovely site but unfortunately had noisy neighbours playing music and drinking until very late. Lovely welcome from the onsite team and delicious fish & chips for dinner! Could benefit from more than one location for a freezer and also a bigger playground.

Lovely site

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding and Grass PitchesJul 2026

Lovely staff welcoming you. A coffee pod onsite and breakfast truck. Also, fish and chips van. All very good value and tasted lovely. We had a plot next to the children's area and showers and, to be honest, wasn't the best. Kids playing until half ten at night screaming and people walking onto our plot, past our van, to get to the showers. Elsan point and toilets, so we didn't have any privacy. However, there are other plots that were more quiet and private. It was that it was fully booked and that was the only pitch available, short walk to the end of the site brings you to the beach and there are very steep steps to get down to it. But, it was clean and dog friendly on the whole. We would return, really lovely site and the weather was amazing.

Perfect for families or parties

Large Tent - Non Electric Pitches (Seaside Field)Jul 2026

This site is perfect for families, however if you want somewhere quiet, this is not for you. We were welcomed on arrival and were able to pick where to pitch, this was easier said than done. It was busy with only small areas left. We moved once due to the noise and when we located somewhere else, the people next to it did not want us pitching there. We did find somewhere eventually and pitched our tent, we thought we would go down to the beach. The steps are extremely steep and the dog was scared of them, this is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. It clearly states dogs should be on a lead however, there were several roaming off the lead with one constantly running off and around. Our first night was not the best but our final night was better, the showers and toilet had been cleaned and the park warden was doing their rounds regularly. More people arrived and it felt more enclosed, I felt like the company wanted to make more money over customers comfort, which I understand as it is a business, but just not for me.

Fabulous stay

We only stayed for one night. But found the facility in excellent condition, all very clean and fresh. The site looked very well maintained and was lovely and tidy. Last be certainly not least the staff were friendly and helpful. Especially explaining in detail where everything is. Overall it was an excellent stay, and certainly wouldn’t hesitate to go back there again Thanks. Ian

One night stay

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding and Grass PitchesJun 2026

Was really disappointed with this site. The reception was clean and modern and staff welcoming but it went downhill from then. Pitch size was good. Negatives were the field for motorhomes had some of the pitches obviously occupied all year - there was an advert to say pitches all year available and very scruffy units that looked out of keeping with the rest of the site. Dogs roamed free despite being supposed to be on a lead. I was surprised there was no shop at all on site - this is not a small site. Advertises chip shop but that is not open all week. Water and grey waste point for motorhomes was on a map but not clear/obvious when you looked. Would not return.

Pleasant site

We booked the night before our stay, on arrival we were pleased to find that we had been allocated a different pitch, as the original pitch, confirmed by email, was near the entrance and busy road. The pitches are a good size, the site is near to the cliffs with stairs down to the beach level. We went to watch the sunrise for the summer solstice and it was a lovely experience.

Lovely stay

Large Tent - Non Electric Pitches (Seaside Field)Jun 2026

Great stay despite the inclement weather. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Lovely flat, spacious pitches and easy to pitch. Clean bathrooms, lost one star because there was no hot water in the closest facilities block which meant a walk (unfortunately in the rain) a bit further to wash up and shower. Location next to, what felt like, a private beach was brilliant. Humans and dogs had a great stay, oh and the chip van was good too!

Lovely camp site!

Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding and Grass PitchesMay 2026

The only reason there is a dust difference is the quality size and condition of the hard standing. One seasonal pitch took úp more room than was necessary which infringed on the site next door this making it hard to keep units spaced out correctly. Would love to go again but would go for a grass pitch

Lovely campsite

We had a fantastic stay at The Hollies. Staff were wonderful, spotless toilet/shower blocks. Easy access to bus stop just outside camp. Would visit this site again.
