About Old Brick Kilns
This family friendly site offers a peaceful atmosphere, divided into woody pockets and open areas. Just a 20 minute drive from the coast, the site is well placed for fun days out with Holkham Hall and Blakeney Point also within a 30 minute drive. If pitching up with a campervan, caravan or motorhome, there are eight 6m x 9m hardstanding pitches available. These allow up to six guests with a 16 amp electric hook up included! For tent campers, there are ten grass pitches available. Each measures around 5m x 4m allowing up to six guests. These are accessible by car with a gently sloping walkway so they are suitable for wheelchair users. Caravans, tents, trailer tents and motorhomes also have the option of 60 all weather pitches, with an adult only area too. Keen fisherman can enjoy a relaxed afternoon by the onsite pond, stocked with carp, bream, rudd, tench and more. The bar/take away is also the ideal place to unwind after a long day of exploring, offering burgers, loaded fries, a kid's menu, sharers, sides, a Sunday menu and a full bar selection.

We recently visited the Old Brick Kilns campsite for a single night stay, booked on the same day. We arrived just before 6pm and members of staff were still around in the shop office. We were greeted well and directed to our pitch site, which we found easily. We had a lot of choice where to pitch as the tent areas wasn't busy. We have a car roof tent so we chose one of the firm gravel based pitches. We visited the bar/restaurant area in the evening. The atmosphere was very pleasant and the staff were friendly and welcoming. We had a pizza, followed by a waffle, which were both very nice and reasonably priced for the quantity and quality. We used the shower facilities in the evening and the following morning and it was a real surprise to us how well facilitated they were and how well they were kept. Expectations aren't always very high of these types of facilities at campsites, but these were very nice. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. We didn't have time to explore the local area, but we were told by some other guests that the area is lovely and has some nice walks. We'd certainly stay again.
Pure chillout

What a lovely site. The toilets were clean and the showers were hot! Although, I can imagine in high season it is very busy. Lovely helpful hosts. Would definitely recommend.
