Farm Camping by the Sea
A hilltop farm retreat on the North Norfolk coast
Seaside Farmstay Camping & Glamping with mYminiBreak is an upcoming farm campsite set in the rolling farmland of the Norfolk coast.
Combining the charm of a traditional Norfolk farm stay with camping and glamping, this site gives guests a genuine taste of rural coastal life. With open fields, wild animals, and the sounds of the countryside all around, it's the perfect escape for families, couples, and groups who want something more than a standard campsite.
The farm setting makes this a brilliant spot for kids to learn about animals and rural life, while the proximity to some of Norfolk's finest beaches means the coast is never far away.
Our Farmstay Accommodation
Whether you prefer sleeping under canvas or having a few more comforts around you, Seaside Farmstay Camping & Glamping gives you both options.
Bring your own tent and enjoy a traditional Seaside Farmstay Camping experience, with the freedom to spend your days outdoors and your evenings around the fire.
For an easier escape, choose glamping at Seaside Farmstay and enjoy comfortable accommodation without having to bring all the camping equipment with you. It's a great option for couples, families and anyone who loves the idea of camping but prefers a little extra comfort.
The heart of Seaside Farmstay is the large safari tent: proper standing height, real beds, room for a family or two couples who actually like each other, outdoor deck or seating, and evening fire without living out of a boot.
This is not a two-person pop-up. It is canvas with enough comfort that you'll stop arguing about "should we have booked a cottage" and start planning the salt marsh charter and the Friday night table instead.
Turn up. Unpack once. Leave the car for the days that need it. The rest of the time the farm and the lanes do the work.
What you're getting
✅ Space and privacy on a quiet Norfolk farm
✅ A base smart enough for paddleboards, boat days and long lunches
✅ Wholesome mornings before high-ticket afternoons
✅ Evenings under a proper roof of canvas, not a hurried flysheet
On the water
• Paddleboarding on the Hunstanton stretch when wind and tide allow, with hire and lessons from local watersports operators.
• Windsurfing and kitesurfing off Hunstanton and along the West Norfolk coast, where the steady onshore winds draw riders from across the region. Lessons and kit hire are available locally.
• Wild swimming at Holme and Old Hunstanton on calm days. Swim with a friend, check tide times first and stay out of tidal channels; the tide on this coast comes in fast, especially around Brancaster.
• Charter a boat on the salt marshes: skippered traditional Norfolk boats through the creeks, usually from Wells-next-the-Sea.
• Seal trips from Morston when you want to see Blakeney Point the easy way.
At the table
• Great places to dine out along this coast
• Brancaster and Thornham for harbour and deli energy.
• Burnham Market when you want the polished night, Wells quayside when you want chips with a view.
• White Horse Holme when you want a serious pub table a short hop from Holme.
• Safari tent guests often plan one proper dinner out and one fire-pit night. That mix is the brand.
On the farm between the big days
• Feed chickens and goats.
• Collect eggs.
• Do nothing on the deck with a paper and a pot of coffee. High-spend does not mean every hour is booked.
Rare experiences
• Handle an owl and other birds of prey with local falconry / owl experiences (book the operator; we are the base).
• Wildlife days at Holme Dunes, RSPB Snettisham Spectacular windows, Wild Ken Hill.
On two wheels and two feet
• Cycle country lanes to the seaside along and around the Peddars Way finish at Holme-next-the-Sea: quiet roads, big sky, bike back to canvas.
• Norfolk Coast Path along this stretch of coast; one-night walkers still welcome, but safari guests usually want the multi-day version with a real bed waiting.
Families
Arcades to play, pine woods to explore, plus a beach twenty-five minutes away on foot. Child-friendly glamping in the safari tents if nobody fancies a mat on the floor.
Couples
Shepherd's huts at the far end of the meadow, wood burner lit, fire pit at the step, nothing passing. Midweek out of season is as close to silence as Norfolk gets.
Touring caravans
Pull in, pitch up, awning out. Touring pitches with electric hook-up and a quiet hilltop setting a short drive from the coast.
Walkers
The Peddars Way finishes at Holme, about three miles away, where it meets the Norfolk Coast Path. Pitch up on the hill, walk the coast, come back to a fire.
Dog owners
A properly dog friendly campsite: dogs across every camping area, in selected glamping units, and on the lead around livestock. Miles of field footpaths and dog-legal beach at Holme and Brancaster start at the gate.
Campervans & motorhomes
A sensible one-night stop or a fortnight's base for exploring the North Norfolk coast, with hook-up on touring pitches
