Time to escape from modern life and spend some time reconnecting with the natural world? Go Wild Camping and Glamping could well be just the spot – this secluded, back-to-basics Norfolk site is right in the centre of Thetford Forest, making it a wonderful place to slow down and soak up some woodland peace for a while. The forest is the star here, of course – stay here and you'll be surrounded by natural views, from the trees towering above your head to the meadow grasses at ground level. There’s lots of wildlife to look out for too, and after dark the big open skies are filled with glittering stars (and, in even better news, you're welcome to light a campfire or barbecue for warmth and outdoor meals while you look up into the heavens). If you're keen to keep active, you're not short of ways to do so, as the High Lodge visitor centre is easily walkable from the site and has a Go Ape course, adventure play areas and a café as well as info about all your walking and cycling trail options. Try activities like mountain biking (on the pump track or Hit The Dirt track), tree climbing and wild swimming in the forest, before having a picnic at one of the forest's scenic picnic areas. To help preserve the natural setting, facilities have been kept fairly simple – you'll have access to toilets, showers and a washing-up area but you'll need to bring your own drinking water. Groups, families, couples and hikers are all welcome, and it’s also a dog-friendly site.

Staanplaats kampeerbusje op gras zonder elektriciteit (tot 2 personen)

Ik was blij met We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. The site had everything we needed for a night in our roof tent — plenty of space, flat pitches, and a nice peaceful atmosphere.
It’s a dog-friendly spot with beautiful surroundings. It felt like we were camping in the woods under the stars, and we even saw lots of deer which was a lovely bonus.
The facilities were basic but clean — working toilets, a sink area, and warm running water, which was all we needed. The site itself was tidy and quiet, just what we were looking for.
There’s clearly some ongoing improvements happening, and it’s nice to see the site being developed with care. Loads of potential here.
Would happily stay again!

Ik was niet blij met If we had to mention one downside, it would be the price — it felt a little high given that the site is still under development. That said, we booked last minute during the school holidays, so a higher rate was expected.
We’re also aware that development costs money, and it looks like the site is heading in a great direction, so we were happy to pay and support that progress.
We wish the owners all the best with future bookings and look forward to seeing how it all comes together. We'll definitely return, hopefully off-peak next time for a bit more value and to enjoy the finished upgrades.

Disappointing, not worth the money unless you need the location.

Staanplaats voor caravan op gras zonder elektriciteit

Ik was blij met Nigel was understanding and tried to help find an alternative campsite.

Ik was niet blij met We were extremely disappointed with this site—it was nothing like we expected and absolutely not worth the circa £60 per night we paid. Situated just off a main road, it felt more like an abandoned farmers field than a peaceful, remote camping spot.

The “facilities” were a couple of unfinished containers or portacabins, set in a huge, empty field dominated by a massive water tanker. No one was on-site to greet us, and the whole place had a derelict, unwelcoming atmosphere. At first, we genuinely questioned whether this was even a legitimate campsite.

Overflowing bins filled with black bags from the weekend were still sitting there when we arrived on Sunday afternoon. For a site of this size, the waste disposal was entirely inadequate.

We came prepared for a basic, wild camping experience, but instead found a post-apocalyptic landscape straight out of Mad Max—complete with a lone, uninhabited caravan that only added to the eerie vibe.

To be fair, Nigel was polite and offered us an alternative site an hour away, but having already lost much of the first day of our 3-day trip, we opted to move to a better site closer to Thetford. We asked for a full refund since we never stayed, but were only offered 50%.

In short, this site is not worth the price unless you absolutely need to be in that exact location. Had we read honest reviews beforehand, we never would have booked.

Staanplaats voor een tent op gras zonder elektriciteit (alleen voor volwassenen, geen auto's)

Ik was blij met Large Open Field; Lots of Space; have great access for mountain biking.

The site has lots of untapped potential.

Ik was niet blij met The photos supplied are misleading at best. The toilet block is a few portakabins and a trailer in the middle of the field.

The field is massive but there’s very little rubbish disposal facilities.

For the price charged it’s extortion. Would not recommend sadly.

I do wish it well; as if the Facilties were to a finnished standard then it has some great potential.

Van de manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're glad to hear that you liked the large open field, the space, and the great access for mountain biking.

We're sorry to hear that the facilities and photos did not meet your expectations. We're actively working on improving our infrastructure, and your feedback about the toilet block and rubbish disposal is very helpful as we continue to make these improvements.

We appreciate your well wishes and hope that if you're in the area again in the future, you'll see the potential we're striving for come to life.

Hard to find something!…

Staanplaats voor een tent op gras zonder elektriciteit (klein)

Ik was blij met Hard to find something!

Ik was niet blij met It was an old farm land field with stumpy weeds/grass. A huge empty field with a sewage waste lorry, a few old porta cabin buildings housing the toilets/showers and an old caravan all
Parked up in the middle of the field. We were the only people there and were charged £60 plus £10 “early check in” fee, to literally set up our tent in an old farm field for one night. We won’t use it again.

Van de manager: Thank you for your review. We sincerely apologize for your disappointing experience, and we understand your frustration from your comment, "Hard to find something!"
We are truly sorry that the field was not well-maintained and that the presence of equipment and debris made your stay so unpleasant.
We understand your decision not to return. Your review is a catalyst for change, and we are committed to making the necessary improvements to create a site that offers genuine value for money.

Staanplaats voor een tent op gras zonder elektriciteit (alleen voor volwassenen, geen auto's)

Ik was blij met as a field in a scenic position

Ik was niet blij met campsite still being set up, tatty portakabin toilets, rusty water tanker for flushing, no drinking water, if one catches the person working there you are handed bottled water, campsite empty apart from me, worried about safety of my belongings if left in the tent. what made it the worst campsite was constant traffic noise, even at the far end of field it was loud. why would you put a camp site there. to top it off were the jets. anthony

Staanplaats kampeerbusje op gras zonder elektriciteit (tot 2 personen)

Ik was blij met So much space. Plenty of space to pitch away from each other and literally a 5 minute walk into the woods. Quiet and peaceful but close enough to places to nip out to for food etc.
Toilet and shower basic but absolutely fine for me.
Contact from hosts was great, quick to respond to questions.

Ik was niet blij met Only thing is the extra cost per dog per stay - a lot of hotels are only £10 dog but appreciate that’s my choice to have dogs and travel with dogs

Aanbevelen aan vrienden Opnieuw bezoeken

Van de manager: Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We are delighted to hear you and your dogs had such an enjoyable and peaceful stay.

It's great to know that you appreciated the generous space to pitch and found our location so convenient for exploring Thetford Forest and the surrounding area. We also appreciate your kind words about our quick communication!

We also appreciate you bringing the issue of the toilet roll to our attention. We sincerely apologize for this simple oversight—that's a basic amenity that should always be available, and we will be double-checking our supplies more frequently to ensure it doesn't happen again.

We're so thrilled to hear that you would stay with us again! We look forward to welcoming you and your furry companions back to Norfolk/Suffolk on your next trip.

This is not a camping, it's an overprized former farmland.

Ik was blij met Tranquility

Ik was niet blij met Toilets and showers are very bad. Women's single toilet not working (clogged) and men's toilets very dirty. The whole sanitary building is a mess.

Grass is not grass, but former farmland with sharp weeds.

This is not a camping but a piece of land where people pay to do some wild camping. The price you have to pay for what you get is dazzling.

It's supposed to be a startup, but nothing is ready. Not recommended.

Aanbevelen aan vrienden Opnieuw bezoeken

Van de manager: Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry to hear about your experience; it's clear from your review that we completely failed to meet your expectations, and for that, we sincerely apologize.

There is absolutely no excuse for the condition of our sanitary building. We are shocked and embarrassed to hear about the clogged women's toilet and the dirty state of the men's toilets. We understand that this is unacceptable, and we are taking immediate action to address the maintenance and cleanliness of our facilities.
While we are proud of our natural and tranquil setting, that does not excuse the lack of basic maintenance and proper facilities. Your comments about the weeds and the feeling of "wild camping" are a clear sign that we need to do better, and we are committed to making significant improvements.

We understand that this doesn't change your experience, but we want to assure you that your review is invaluable. We are a new business, and your honesty will help us create a site we can be proud of. We wish you all the best on your future travels.
