WHICH CAMP?
All our private camps are located just a few miles apart on this beautiful part of the North Norfolk coast and wherever you to choose to stay you will be amazed at the beauty of your surroundings. We are just a 3 hour drive from London, Birmigham & Leeds. All camps are close to the coast so beach days will be a must! Adjacent lodges can be arranged for group bookings.
THE HIDEAWAY
The Hideaway as the name suggests is really tucked away in a quiet corner of a private estate. This is the closest you will get to wild camping with luxury. Whilst you can easily access everything the coast has to offer, guests seem to hanker back to spend hours on camp. It is great if you really want to escape from the world and also have children who would like to roam free, play with the animals and in the woods. The camp is very good for supervision with very defined camp borders. Around the lodges there is a swing tree , slide area, volleyball, hammock huddle and camp pets. The adjacent woodlands are home to adventure areas, a zip line and lots of den building opportunities. There is also our new ‘Pamper Pod’ which offers hair dryers and make-up stations. You can also order delicious home cooked meals for warming up in your lodge stove. Night skies can be amazing. Great walks including the Peddars Way. Shops are with a 10 minute drive and beaches 15 minutes. We welcome pets all year round at the Hideaway.
The Serengeti lodges sleep 6 and the Zambezi sleep up to 10.
