About Whitehall Farm

Tucked within the prestigious Holkham Estate, this spacious meadow campsite puts you a mile from Burnham Thorpe and just two miles from the north Norfolk coast. Campers praise the generous pitches and spotless facilities – including showers and multiple communal fridges that prove genuinely useful. The real bonus is the on-site café-bar serving decent food and morning baps, meaning lazy breakfasts are sorted without leaving the field.

From here you're brilliantly placed for coastal walks along the Norfolk Coastal Path, beach days on fabulous sandy stretches, and exploring smart Burnham Market (five minutes by car) with its excellent independent food shops. Lord Nelson's birthplace, Burnham Thorpe, is a pleasant 20-minute stroll away – the historic pub named in his honour makes a perfect evening destination. Staff are genuinely helpful and welcoming, whether you're pitching a tent, parking a motorhome, or staying in one of the shepherd's huts or yurts.

With campfires allowed and wildlife all around, it's a peaceful rural base that doesn't sacrifice convenience – a winning combination for families and couples alike.

Great campsite. Books up quickly at peak times so plan ahead. Good facilities and helpful staff. Recommended.

A mixed bag. Felt a bit of an inconvenience on arrival. It appeared we didn't need to check in. Would be helpful if this was made clearer on the booking confirmation email. We were the only ones on site for the duration of our stay so was lovely and quiet, no complaints there! We could see there's plenty of room between pitches which is nice. The facilities are located in a barn. They hadn't been cleaned prior to our arrival and not during our 3 night stay. The whole area needs a good deep clean and in particular the toilets plud a bit of tlc. Flaking paint, dirty floors etc. Thankfully the showers were of decent pressure and temperature and had heaters as the toilets were absolutely freezing as was the barn obviously. And for goodness sake get a new mop or at least stick it in the wash. Went to mop the shower as requested and made it worse! We've now moved on to another site with a heated amenity block which feels like a real luxury! Not sure if we'd return but handy location so maybe.

Always a lovely place to be. Camping with ponies. Plus there are pods if you’d prefer a more indoor experience.

We stayed in Elsa the pod, absolutely amazing, spotlessly clean, spacious and had everything we needed. Very well thought out. Lovely little cafe on site, we used both mornings, quality ingredients plus a little bar. Quite central to areas that we wanted to visit, with Wells next Sea just a few miles away. Very friendly staff, very welcoming and nothing was to much trouble, would definitely recommend and we will be staying again.
