  • Family-friendly site two miles from Mundesley beach, with dogs welcome
  • A 15-minute drive from Cromer and half an hour to Wroxham Broad
  • Under 10 minutes’ walk from a village pub and playing field
Nosing around for a north Norfolk break that is well-based for countryside walks, crabbing, cruising The Broads and chilling at the beach? Try Meadow View Camping and Caravan Site, a family-friendly site on the coast just two miles from Mundesley. To be precise, it’s just a 40-minute walk (or a five-minute drive) from its beach and Victorian seafront, where there are beach huts. The site is in a peaceful Norfolk village called Trunch. You might be quite familiar with the place by the end of your stay – and happily so – because it has a social club hosting live music and two beer festivals per year, as well as a welcoming pub with fodder, beer, good music and other events. As if that isn't enough already, the village also has countryside walks, a playing field and a 15th-century church. No need to leave furry family members behind at Meadow View Camping and Caravan Site, as it's dog-friendly. Barbecues and firepits are also both welcome (just note that only firepits hired from Meadow View are permitted). You should have plenty of good tales for the firepit, with there being so many beaches nearby: Trimingham (10 minutes’ drive), Cromer (15 minutes) and Sheringham (25 minutes), for example. Walcott beach, 10 minutes' drive away, is a fine choice, with a café, ice cream parlour, fish and chips shop and a post office with a shop all along the seafront. In Mundesley, there are pubs, restaurants, cafés, takeaways, another social club, arcades, miniature golf, a petrol station and a supermarket – very handy indeed. Just remember that this is a rural location next to a working farm, so there are likely to be country smells and sounds at times.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Peaceful, flat open field. Well maintained facilities blocks. Friendly owners. Only £22 per night and pub within walking distance.

Disliked Long spikey grass, only two female toilets, one hand wash basin and one washing up sink. Also wanted to charge £15 for use of firepit, when we have our own. Reluctantly agreed we could do.

Liked Lovely large site with plenty of space between pitches and a large open area for the kids to run around. Good clean facilities with plenty of hot water for the showers.
The people running the site are extremely helpful, even assisting us in getting a toy out of a tree.

Liked Site is lovely! Host was super helpful and was very accommodating when we had a friend joining us to ensure she was close by. The showers are clean and hot and was cleaned daily. The kids made some lovely friends and they all played happily on the massive space. We went to walcott and mundsley beach with our dog and both are gorgeous and not too busy beaches.

Disliked That we only booked 4 nights! Wish we could have stayed longer.

Liked This is one of the best Camp Sites I’ve stayed at.. The facilities are great, plenty of room and nice peaceful setting.
The owners and staff are just fantastic and friendly and they really made our trip very pleasant.
It’s a great place for kids with room enough to ride bikes and play ball games and is very secure.
It’s very near Mundaley Beach and has all you need within a 5 min drive.
The village is lovely too and you can walk to the pub or social club easily.
Great value for money.
We are going to go back next year we had such a great time

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked The amount of space and freedom to choose where we would like to set up camp was brilliant! The facilities were kept clean and tidy and try were handy being all in one place. The camp site is in a great location for exploring Norfolk. Beaches close by, shops within a short drive and the owners were helpful and friendly. We loved having a campfire provided. Thanks Christine!

Local attractions

When it comes to getting stuck into the north Norfolk coast, you might want to get a tick list going…there’s Overstrand beach and Walcott beach to see and crabbing on the pier in Cromer (all within 15 minutes' drive). Keep ticking them off: the lighthouse in Happisburgh (20 minutes), seal spotting at Blakeney Point (40 minutes) and Waxham (35 minutes) or sandy beaches at Sea Palling (half an hour) and Wells-next-the-Sea (55 minutes). The latter has a gorgeous fishing port running seal-watching trips. Inland’s just as excellent. There’s a generous handful of National Trust properties within driving distance, plus ways to get out onto The Broads in Wroxham (half an hour). You might want to board the Bure Valley Railway there or join The North Norfolk Steam Railway in Sheringham (25 minutes). For all you budding historians, Weybourne (half an hour) has the Muckleburgh Military Collection too. Family-friendly ventures are easily sourced, with various entertainments in North Walsham (10 minutes), treetop adventures at BeWILDerwood Norfolk (half an hour) and all the attractions in Great Yarmouth (50 minutes) like Pleasure Beach, Britannia Pier and Sea Life Great Yarmouth.
