Penny Meadows

The early morning light catches on the dew-covered meadow grass, and somewhere across the flat Norfolk landscape, a marsh harrier calls. Penny Meadows sits in classic Broads country, where vast skies meet gentle farmland and the coast beckons just beyond the horizon. This is camping that feels properly rural, where the night sky actually gets dark and the rhythms of the countryside set the pace.

Perfect for traditionalists seeking an unpretentious pitch, this site welcomes tents, campervans, and caravans to its Norfolk Coast setting. The region offers that distinctive East Anglian character—medieval wool churches, winding lanes to sandy beaches, and market towns where time seems to move more slowly. You're well-placed for exploring both the coastal path and the waterways that make this corner of England so distinctive.

The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so ask at reception if you're planning to toast marshmallows under those famously big Norfolk skies. With facilities unspecified in advance, it's worth enquiring what's available when you book. The vibe here leans towards simplicity and space—meadow camping as it should be, without unnecessary fuss.
