Why stay here ...

Buttercup Meadow is the ideal coastal site if you are looking for peace and tranquillity. It is only a short stroll from beautiful, quiet, sandy beaches.

With only 5 pitches in an acre you will have plenty of space to relax and enjoy the sea views. Next to Buttercup Meadow is our 4 acre hay field which is home to deer, foxes, hedgehogs and birdlife. Watch the sunrise and the sunset in this haven.

There are wonderful walks and cycle lanes to follow. Or just take a stroll along the prom to the local pub 'The Poacher's Pocket' and enjoy a delicious meal overlooking the sea. The village has a renowned fish & chip shop, a cafe which serves home-made food - breakfast and lunches, a Chinese and Turkish restaurant. The local shop and post office sells almost everything including a good selection of wines and beers.

A few miles' drive will take you to the Broads - hire a boat for the day and explore this unique environment of lakes and waterways dating back to the middle ages. The picturesque towns of Cromer and Sheringham are also close by.

Lovely peaceful CL

This CL is in a very quiet spot, within easy reach of the beach. Tom is very friendly and welcoming and we will definitely return. Our one issue was finding the site. The gate is at ///circles.provide.icebergs on what three words, not where the postcode takes you.

Superb view. We pitched against the hedge looking over the clifftop and sea. There is a gate which takes you down to the long sandy beach in 2 minutes. We walked along the beach then found a path back up and walked back through Bacton. We... Show more
