Why stay here ...
Cavick House Farm is a quite site on a small working farm in the South Norfolk countryside. The site is located in a sheltered two acre field overlooking the farm with electrical hook-ups and space for awnings. Families and well behaved dogs are welcome.
The Barber family produce free range eggs which are available to buy from their egg vending machine. They also have an on site cafe & gift shop where you can enjoy homemade cakes, scones & coffee overlooking the farmhouse and grounds.
The site is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. It is a short walk from the historic Wymondham Abbey and the pretty market town of Wymondham with a great selection of shops, pubs, cafes, restaurants, bakeries and supermarkets.
Visitors can enjoy a walk along the River Tiffey or to the award winning heritage Mid Norfolk Railway just a short walk away with trains to Dereham and Steam trains over the summer.
The famous Norfolk Broads and beautiful North Norfolk and Suffolk coastlines are within reach from the site, offering stunning natural beauty and a range of attractions to suit all tastes.
The fine city of Norwich is just a 20 minute drive away and great destination for food and history lovers.

Perfect for us
Cavick House Farm
We had 2 nights here as our first booking at a CL site as new club members. We loved it! So peaceful. We didn’t have time to visit Wymondham or the abbey or even the cafe at the farm. Site is 20 mins from the mainline station which is 15 min trip to Norwich. We will definitely be back.
A little gem!
Cavick House Farm
What a little gem! An idyllic rural location but within easy walking distance to the beautiful Wymondham Abbey and pretty little historic market town of Wymondham itself. Friendly owner, David, who is happy to chat but respects your privacy and space. Spacious grassed site circling a cute little animal enclosure, currently home to Lucy the venerable old donkey, Pamela the goat (her faithful companion) and three rather sedate sheep! The fresh eggs, are delicious bought from the little shop sitting next to the tasteful little cafe and gift shop , both of which are very popular with campers and locals alike. Wymondham, lovely in its own right, certainly benefits from this tasteful little additional facility. A working farm so the occasional ‘scent’ in the air, and happy grunts and squeals at feeding time, but certainly not intrusive. A true sense of being enveloped in the country side. Will definitely berevisiting.

Wish we'd found this earlier :-)
Cavick House Farm
Under Covid we've started to explore our more local CLs - This one is a delight!
Oodles of space....just about shouting distance to any neighbouring caravans (although we were alone for our stay last week).....facilities simple and straightforward but fully functional (including obviously newly-upgraded 16a electric hookups).
Ground gently undulating, but any proper caravanner will have a few planks for levelling and we didn't need any....normal Norfolk soil meant one or two awning pegs needed repositioning to avoid flints, but pitching was nowhere near as difficult as the average CAMC hardstanding!
Grass sufficiently cut, without being so over-manicured that I was scared to drive over it :-)
Extremely friendly welcome from our non-intrusive hosts and otherwise left to our own devices, with everything necessary clearly signed and marked - perfect!
Yes, with the wrong wind direction there is some detectable smell from the pigs across the way (but it's a working farm, so no surprises there :-) ) To be fair, detectable would indicate a north-westerly, which is not that common hereabouts.
Never heard the chickens at all despite there being thousands of them just up the next field behind the trees.
Their produce, however, is as fresh as it gets and available 12 hours a day at the eggery, adjacent to the gloriously quirky coffee shop run by Annabelle, who bakes the most delicious cakes. All this within 150 yards walk of the CL.
The adjacent paddock houses Lucy the donkey & Pamela the goat, who are also friendly enough, but give off the air of "seen you lot all before" so really don't care whether you talk to them or not :-)
5 mins stroll from the site is Mid Norfolk Railway's Wymondham station and 1 min further is Wymondham Abbey and the delightful town, with a pleasant walk along the riverside as an option next to the railway crossing.
Oh yes, we'll be back.....just hope a positive review doesn't mean we can't get a pitch next time :-)
We keep coming back
Cavick House Farm
We have visited this site a number of times and enjoy coming back. There are only two negatives that I can see and that is the flies as previously mentioned and the smell of the pigs when the wind blows in a certain direction, but given that this is a working farm you would expect it and for us wasn't a problem.
The site is approached via a long sweeping drive and when you reach the CL the area is large with plenty of space and the animals are great for the children to see.
The owners are very friendly and accommodating and there is the option to buy fresh free range eggs and preserves for the Hen Shed in front of the Farmhouse.
The town of Wymondham is only a few minute's walk and would suit motorhomes as the bus stop is within walking distance too.
I would certainly recommend this site for both couples and families.
weekend escape
Cavick House Farm
if you are here for a weekend or week you will always be welcome. yes this is a working farm (hard working) the family are lovely, theres a lovely coffee place with a different where you can have a chap with the locals and eat home made cake, theres fresh eggs and jam from the nicely painted sheds.
wymondham is just a short walk passed the abbey you must take the time and pop into the abbey, you can catch the train or bus into Norwich. we have been stopping here for the last 10 years and we come 2-3 times a year and we will be back.
