We had a very warm welcome as we arrived by Tim who showed us to our pitch while he gave us a guided tour of the site.
The Desert tent... read more we stayed in was awesome, out of the way in a private and peaceful area. It was kitted out for a very comfortable stay and the real toilet and shower was icing on a camping holiday cake.

Amazing experience and extremely cosy and comfortable stay. For the not so brave campers who still want to enjoy nature and have some time to recharge in comfort. This spot... read more on the camp site was lovely and secluded to get some nice peace but also close enough to the barn if we wanted to be more social. Very well equipped cooking, W/C and shower facilities. We will be back.

The Norfolk Brickyard is in a perfect location for the North Norfolk coast, so close to Holkham Hall which is worth at least a day of anyone's time. It's... read more obviously very well managed and maintained and Abbott's Rest is lovely with the perfect location at the end of the site. The children were enchanted with it all, and for someone like me who isn't a camper, it was great to have some core facilities for cooking, washing, etc. Lots of space around the tent for playing games and a great vibe from the staff. We enjoyed picking up fish & chips from Burnham Market, hiring a boat and having lunch at Holkham Hall, and being so very close to the sea.
