The long Suffolk light stretches right across the flat fields here, and on still evenings you can hear the church bells carry from the village — proper North Norfolk quiet.

Petygards Hall takes tents, campervans and caravans, and suits anyone after an uncomplicated pitch in this gentle corner of the coast. You're in classic Norfolk territory — big skies, flint churches, marshes and beaches all within striking distance — though the site itself keeps things straightforward and low-key. It's the sort of place that works for couples touring the Broads, families who want space to spread out, or anyone happy with a simple base for exploring the area's excellent walking and birdwatching.

Facilities aren't detailed in the listing, so it's worth ringing ahead to check what's provided and whether you'll need to bring your own kit. Campfires may be allowed depending on conditions — ask when you arrive. The vibe feels relaxed and unfussy, more working farm than polished glamping, which suits some campers down to the ground.
