Pinecones Caravan and Camping Reviews

Really lovely site!

Great site in a really fabulous location. Pitches are sizeable, they do all seem to dip in the middle a little causing some water collection underneath when it's rained. We did have some flooding coming up through the tent, but only realised when we were packing up. The neighbouring pitch also had this issue. The facilities were very clean and well maintained. The private toilet and shower cubicles were a particular favourite of ours! My children especially loved the radio playing and rainbow light shower heads! Washing up facilities also very clean! We ventured out each day to a number of different places. The Old Hunstanton beach is lovely and dog friendly all year around and about 15 mins away. Our favourite to visit was Brancaster though which was about 25 mins away. Also dog friendly! We walked from the campsite to Snettisham beach one day which on Google maps says 1hr 20 mins. It took us much longer, but an absolutely beautiful walk through the fields. You can access this path right from the campsite. Visiting Sandringham was another favourite with our children and dogs - the park is wonderful and it's so so close! We had a really great stay and would definitely recommend this site. Perfect for families, very welcoming and approachable staff. Perfect location for the surrounding area, everything in less than 1hr distance from the site.

Thank you for your great review, we are thrilled you enjoyed your stay with us. The pitches have taken such a battering this year where we have been so busy where as fast as someone has left, the pitches have been allocated out again. We are glad that you liked our facilities, we are rather fond of them ourselves. There are plenty of places to visit in Norfolk, making it a great getaway for everyone. Thanks, Pinecones Team.

Great site

Great site in a perfect location. Nice walk to Sandringham and to the pub in Dersingham. Also nice, flat walk to Snettisham beach. The picnic huts on each pitch, if you choose these pitches, are a lovely addition. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful and nothing seemed like too much trouble. I would definitely recommend the site.

Thank you for your amazing review, we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with us. The walks are very nice with such amazing scenery. We look forward to welcoming you on your next visit. Many thanks, Sharon.

Worth a stay

Overall, we were happy with the campsite. Our only comments would be that, when it's busy, you may feel a bit crammed in. The shop, although limited in items, does provide free ice! It would also be helpful if they opened again after 3pm, maybe from 5-7?

Fantastic site, would highly recommend and we will be staying again in the future

We stayed here recently and were blown away at the standard of clean facilities, beautiful pitches and super friendly staff. If you want to chill away for a few days or have a family trip, this camp suits everyone and we would highly recommend.

An excellent site to stay and explore the local countryside

A great camp site with excellent facilities. Ideally located for exploring the Royal Estate of Sandringham. Hunstanton is only 7 miles away via Norfolk Lavender which is well worth a visit. Travelling further afield, Cromer is always worth a visit and so is Holkham Beach and Hall. The road can be a bit noisey at times but come bed time it is quiet. Would definately stay there again and recommend the site to friends and family.

Thank you for the review and we are delighted to hear that you had a good stay with us and explored the area as well. We are pleased to hear that you are recommending us and hope to see you very soon.

Great facilities and lovely walks from the site

Well equipped and thought out site. Perfect for dog owners as everything has been thought about. Some noise from the main road but didn't affect us. We'll be back.

Thank you for the review! We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to seeing you again soon.

Short break

Overall, a good site. Staff are very friendly and extremely helpful and welcoming. Sandringham was a short walk away through a mostly wooded area. On one walk, we spotted a Red kite.

Site's response

Thank you for your review, we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with us. We have recently installed a deer/bird hide on site where you can sit and watch, spotting deer and kite and many other birds. We hope to see you again in the future.

Great weekend!

We are first time Campervanners and used this location as just far enough away from home to be an adventure. Being a self built van, I was slightly worried snobbery might be an issue but I have to say, from the minute we arrived, the staff were very welcoming and everything was explained to us, a welcome pack provided and the guy gave us five minutes to park up before popping over to make sure we had everything we needed before wishing us a great stay. The site provisions were great from catering in evenings to spotless toilets/ showers. Loved the idea of a complete bathroom facility , warm, clean, well lit at night. Great walks to take and just very chilled. Thank you all for a lovely stay and it was good to feel included by other campers, We will definitely be back.

Great campsite

Great site. Friendly, helpful staff. Good facilities that make your stay easier whilst camping. Washing up room, laundry room, dog wash area, blue waste disposal and good individual shower/toilet facilities. All are very clean and well-maintained. All berths have water, electricity and grey waste outlets. Very dog friendly, a lot of guests had dogs. Close to the coast, 10 minute drive at most. Would stay again.

Lovely park and staff, only downside is the road noise but it didn't keep us awake. I would recommend this site and would definitely stay again.

Couldn’t fault anything

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Piinecones. Campsite toilet/shower facilities were great, friendly helpful staff and free ice was a bonus too. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your review! We loved hearing what you thought and hope to see you again very soon.

Great site with excellent facilities

We arrived late and there is a self service check in which contained details of the barrier code and pictures pitch. I found this to be great as we knew we would be late arriving. The site has great take away food facilities if you don't fancy cooking. The pitch was level, had electric and water and also a picnic bench. The pitch itself are a good size so that you don't feel on top of each other. Washrooms were very clean and had the toilet, sink and shower all together. It didn't matter what time of day you visited them, they were kept clean. Location was next to a busy road, but you couldn't hear the traffic and excellent to just walk out of the site onto footpaths in the countryside. I would definitely recommend this site in a great location close to the beach.

Thank you so much for the review! We love hearing about your holiday and cannot wait to see you again in the near future.

Nice campsite

Shower blocks are very good. Well-stocked shop. Nibbles has good food. Our pitch was a good pitch, my only criticism is that everyone allows their dog to fowl on the corner pitch opposite (where the logs are). Not nice when you are cooking or eating. Apart from that, all good. Would go again.

Thank you very much for your great review, we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with us, and we very much look forward to seeing you again.

Fantastic campsite!

Fantastic campsite, fantastic shower blocks, immaculately clean. Loved our stay! Will definitely be back.

Thank you for your fantastic review, we pride ourselves with keeping the site and especially the facilities clean and tidy. We very much look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Thanks Pinecones Team

Great stay

We've just stayed here and would love to go back again! The staff were very friendly and helpful, the facilities were great and the location was perfect. There are loads of places to go within a short drive. The site was very busy when we arrived and there were lots of families and despite this, it was still quiet and clean. The only things that could be improved in my opinion would be to have some shelving in the bathrooms to put toiletries on and it would be useful to have the laundry room open for longer, so we could access the freezer for our ice blocks. Apart from that, everything was fab!

Great site

We had a great stay, perfect location for country walking to the beach and through the forest to Sandringham. Staff were very friendly and we liked the modern shower rooms with toilets in each room. Being a bank holiday, the site was full and the shower rooms were cleaned twice a day which was good. The onsite takeaway is fantastic if you don't want to cook. A full English breakfast is very reasonably priced. We will certainly visit again.

Thank you for your review! We love hearing what our guests think of the site and it great to hear these wonderful comments. Thank you for visiting us and see you very soon for another holiday soon I'm sure! Thanks, Pinecones.

Great site

Lovely site with great facilities, will definitely return.

Lovely, relaxed stay

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, very nice lady booked us in on arrival and gave us simple instructions on how to get to our pitch and terms and conditions. From the moment we pitched up, we were relaxed and ready to enjoy our stay. Pitches were very spacious with hardstanding, grassed areas and picnic bench. Buddy our retriever enjoyed his long walks and we enjoyed relaxing in the sun. Facilities were very clean and always free whenever we went for a shower.

Oak Pod

Great overall. I would say to staff cleaning to check who is staying as our fridge was emptied and our stuff was chucked away.

Site's response

Thank you for your review, we are sorry your fridge was emptied while you were still on site. I will have a word with the cleaning staff for this to not happen again.

Lovely little site

Lovely little site with plenty to see and do. Camped with a dog who loves the walks straight from the site. Short car ride to the nearby beaches of Snettisham, Heacham and Hunstanton. Sandringham is a short walk straight from the site.

Site's response

Thank you for your very kind review, we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with us. We have a selection of walks from the site, and we have created some laminated sheets in the reception. We very much hope that we will see you all again soon. The Pinecones Team

A stay with many extras

Booked for 3 nights for our 1st trip in our new campervan and it was great The campsite is in a great location making a good base to explore North Norfolk. Pinecones has everything you need and more, the toilet blocks are very clean and private and the warm water dog shower station was great for washing the dogs down after a day's adventure, including the bridal way next to the campsite. We had a pitch with EHU and picnic hut, and was very happy with the layout and amenities close by. Great stay all in all, so much being that we booked an extra night and we will be booking again.

Great site, would certainly return

Overall, a great campsite. Clean and tidy site and facilities. Private loos/showers nice. Can have a raised BBQ, and great play park for children. Close to the road so could hear traffic at night, but that is not uncommon and didn't spoil the break.

Site's response

Thank you for your great review, we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. We are in the process of planting 100 quick growing conifer trees, which we hope will in time help with the road noise. We do hope you will stay with us again in the future.
