About Bircham Windmill

The family-friendly site enjoys an idyllic location set in the heart of Norfolk's winding hills. Guests can enjoy a unique experience, set in the grounds of a stunning old windmill right onsite that guests can climb up and marvel at the breathtaking countryside views. There are 15 grass pitches with optional electric 16 amp hook-up, all measuring a spacious 12m x 8m. All of the pitches are suitable for tents, trailer tents, caravans, campervans, motorhomes and RVs, allowing up to six guests each. For those wanting something a little extra, opt for one of the two onsite shepherd's huts, Ryeland and Romney. Both have a double bed, with Romney having space for a child's camping bed on the floor which can be added on as a bookable extra. Each features a well-stocked kitchenette, complete with a toaster, kettle and fridge. Both huts are warm and cosy and have their own outdoor seating and cooking area, perfect for a spot of al fresco dining. Have a go at making your own bread or treat yourself to some freshly baked bread and cakes at the onsite bakery, or venture off into the countryside as there is a plethora of trails nearby. Guests can also grab breakfast, lunch and treats at the onsite tea rooms with a games room with a TV for chilling out! Evenings can also be spent cooking up a BBQ or toasting marshmallows over the fire pit, as long as both are raised from the ground and burn smokeless fuel. Dogs are allowed onsite, including in the shepherd's huts, just please keep them on the lead at all times. Cycle storage is available if you're bringing your own bike.

Camping is available from Easter to the end of September and the shepherd's huts are available from Easter to the start of September

Large A-class or Tag Axle Motorhome - Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)Sep 2024

A lovely campsite on the grass and a good well draining surface. Lots of room given, it was nice, friendly and not over managed. A smashing little café/ tea room on site, there were lots of extra picnic tables, fire pits and seating areas. You can visit the lovely old Windmill at special camper rates, warm bread buns and cakes from the onsite bakery. Close to every good resort or town in North Norfolk, I will definitely come back.

Great find

VW-Type Campervan - Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)Sep 2024

A great find. The on-site bakery was amazing, the option to get involved and bake your own bread etc, was a nice addition. The campsite was very quiet, clean and had everything you could need.

What a lovely site

Motorhome - Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)Sep 2024

What a lovely site. Windmill on site with working bakery, was so nice and great tearoom. First time travellers with a motorhome, this was a lovely peaceful site. Everything was there, even had tea towels you could borrow. Showers good. Great tearoom and the bread was so yummy 😋
