Why stay here ...

For those wishing to get away from it all and enjoy the peace and quiet of deepest rural Norfolk this is the perfect caravan park as it offers a 0.5 acre site, level and well sheltered with woodchip hard standing with enough room on each pitch to park your caravan and awning. Motorhomes park on the grass beside the pitch. Up to date wet room with toilet, hot shower, hand basin and changing area with chair.

If you love wildlife there is plenty to see at Spring Meadow, barn and tawny owls, woodpeckers and deer are regularly seen together with a variety of birds.

The Norfolk Coast and Broads can be easily reached by car or cycle with extensive sandy beaches at resorts like Cromer (10 miles), Sheringham (14 miles) and fine National Trust Properties at Blickling (3 miles), Felbrigg (10 miles) and Sheringham Park (13 miles).

The medieval City of Norwich is only 14 miles south and the tranquil Norfolk Broads are nearby.

Weavers Way, Marriotts Way and the Norfolk Coastal path are nearby. This is a good cycling area. Many quiet routes to the coast and the Broads.

Norwich is an excellent shopping base with Castle Mall and Chapelfield Shopping Centres. Alternatively the nearby Georgian town of Holt can provide many interesting finds. Supermarkets can be found in North Walsham (Waitrose, Sainsburys and Lidls) and Aylsham (Co-Op, Budgens and Tesco) along with some lovely award winning Butchers shops.

Tourist Information on site.

The Bure Valley narrow gauge steam railway is in Aylsham. Take the train from Aylsham to Wroxham and book a boat trip on the broads. Alternatively you can cycle to Wroxham from Aylsham Station (9 miles level) and get the train back. Cycles can be taken on the train if you pre-book.

Dining - The Crown Public House is situated in Banningham approximately half a mile. Full meals and bar meals are available daily.

peaceful site

Spring Meadow
just had three weeks at this site, and our third time here. the site is flat with bark chip hard standings, with just one shower and toilet but always enough with only 5 pitches. Richard and Alison are get always friendly and willing to help, should you need it. The site is down a small country lane but there is no problem turning in, Banningham is a short walk up the road and the pub has a good selection of beers and a good restaurant. I can highly recommend site if you like peaceful stay.

A hidden gem! Perfect for peace and quiet yet close to amenities and attractions.

Spring Meadow
This lovely site is situated down a country lane and once in, all pitches are flat with woodchip standing, ehu and fresh water. It's surrounded by tall trees giving it that extra privacy and lots of different types of birds. There is just one shower / toilet facility but with only 6 pitches, it works great. Owners are very nice and welcoming and if there are surplus vegetables from his allotment, he eaves them out for you to take. 500 metres down the lane is the Crown at Banningham, A great pub with an amazing menu, but you need to book ! Cromer, Overstand, Holt and Norwich are all close and Cromer has one of the longest stretches of beach I've ever seen. Thank you Alison for your hospitality, I'm sure we'll see you again.

Fabulous Site

Spring Meadow
Just returned from 18 days at Spring Meadow and what a fabulous site this is. Well kept grass and pitches, spotless washroom, and an excellent location for doing the touristy stuff or just relaxing with a glass of wine, a good book and listening to the bird song. Richard and Alison are great hosts, friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about the area and countryside matters. Go for a walk from the gate and you can come back with dinner - eggs, vegetables, jams, chutneys, honey. Would definitely return and give it a well deserved 10 out of 10.

Lovely CL, quiet location

Spring Meadow
Lovely CL in a peaceful location just outside the village on a country lane. Plenty of walks for the dog, pub nearby 10 minute walk. Cromer not far away and other seaside places worth visiting. Everything on site within easy access. Well drained flat pitches. Shower and toilet immaculate. The owners couldn't do enough for you and were extremely friendly, made afternoon tea for everyone jubilee weekend which was delicious and a kind gesture. Will definitely return if visiting this area again.
