The metallic clink of rigging from nearby boats drifts across this working farm site, where red-brick outbuildings hint at the kiln heritage that gives this Norfolk Coast campsite its name. Morning light filters through coastal pines, and there's an honest, unpretentious quality to the air here—salt-tinged when the wind turns eastward, earthy and agricultural when it doesn't.

This is a straightforward spot for campers, caravanners, and campervans seeking a functional base along this gloriously unspoiled stretch of Norfolk coastline. The region's vast beaches, seal colonies, and marsh-edged harbours lie within easy reach, making it ideal for those who spend their days exploring and simply need somewhere reliable to pitch up afterwards.

The site occupies part of an active farm, so expect a genuine rural atmosphere rather than manicured holiday park perfection. Campfires may be permitted—check when you arrive, as policies can vary with conditions. It's the sort of place that attracts self-sufficient campers who appreciate character over creature comforts, where the surrounding countryside provides the entertainment and the campsite offers honest shelter beneath wide Norfolk skies.
