Camping Site Description
Local Attractions
North Norfolk offers some of the most wonderful countryside in the United Kingdom and has played a major part in many thousands of years of history. So if you like the outdoors and/or visiting historical monuments and buildings then you've found paradise.
Don't forget our Winter Programme of guided walks, courses and other activities.
Kiting and Windsurfing
Kite surfing and windsurfing are major sports on the Norfolk coast. Whether you are just being dragged along the sand by the kite (intentionally or by accident) or surfing and buggying. Kite surfing and kiting can be done most places, with Brancaster and Hunstanton beaches being very popular. Kite buggying is a little less popular with the authorities, but there are some excellent locations for it, like the West end of Brancaster beach.
The Wash and North Norfolk Coast European Marine Site
This area of the coast is Internationally important for wild plants and animals which depend on their unique character. The area is famous for the myriad of bird species that visit throughout the year and home to the largest population of common seals in the UK. In recognition of its important wildlife the Wash and North Norfolk coast has been designated a European marine site under the UK Habitats Regulations.
Surfing
Some of the best surf can be had on the East Coast - Runton & Cromer Beach. From there you can strike out to Mundesley, Bacton, and a dozen secret spots. Or, you can just walk to the local beach breaks.
Watersports
Our location on the North Norfolk coast is unrivalled for it's range of watersports:
Sailing, wind surfing, canoeing, waterskiing, body boarding, power boating, cruising, yachting and kite surfing. Northshore Sport and Leisure offer discounted hire, courses, clothing and equipment.
When the tide is out or you just don't fancy getting wet, there are a whole host of other activities.
Hiking and Walking (Tramping for the Australasians)
The coastal path passes the door of Deepdale Farm heading both East and West along the coast. If you are looking for something a little less strenuous then there are our two new farm walks (click here for more information), fabulous walks around the common and coast line.
Pub Walks in Norfolk - 'A great book for those who like to eat and drink before, during and after their exercise'.
Cycling
We work closely with a few bike hire companies, some of whom will deliver to Deepdale. Of course you are welcome to bring your own bikes and there is a secure storage area for them. Which ever you choose you can head off into the countryside and discover that Norfolk does have hills! The National Cycling Route No1 passes a few miles inland and Norfolk offers a wealth of small country lanes to investigate.
Deepdale Information can arrange cycle hire for you. The cost is approximately £10 per adult per day (reduced rates for children). There is a delivery charge of £10.00 and helmets are £1 per person per day.
Bird Watching
Within a few miles of Burnham Deepdale are a number of world renowned bird reserves. The RSPB run Titchwell and Snettisham, English Nature run Scolt Head Island and Holkham and the NOA run Holme-next-the-Sea. The last few groups who have been to stay with us have seen over 100 species of bird in a weekend.
Titchwell has three nature trails on the reserve and all are accessible to wheelchairs/pushchairs. The main path is approximately 1 kilometre long and runs from the visitor centre to the beach. The fen and meadow trails include 120 metres of path and 140 metres of boardwalk but are not accessible to dog walkers.
If you like geese then try to be here for the flights of Brent and Pinkfeet during the winter.
Seals
There are trips to see the seals from Morston and Blakeney to Blakeney Point: prices are approximately £6.00 for adults and £4.00 for children under 14. There are also seal trips from Hunstanton out into the Wash and trips from Wells-next-the-Sea.
Beaches
Two Australians ended up arguing outside our stand at the Independent Traveller's World Show about the beaches on the North Norfolk coast. The one who'd never been here felt Australian beaches were the best in the world. The other Aussie who was a regular visitor felt the beaches here may well be different from those in Aus, but they are stunning. The one who'd never been before decided to give us the acid test and came to stay. He admitted that the beaches are pretty damn good!
Brancaster Beach and Holkham Beach are our favourites and the closest, both served by the Coasthopper Bus Service.
Swimming
If you don't mind a bit of mud (The mud here is supposed to have excellent properties for skin!), then you can wander down the drove opposite the hostel and swim in the creake. A natural swimming pool forms in The Hole, in the harbour when the tide is out. Alternatively you can visit one of the many local swimming baths, including the Oasis in Hunstanton and Wells-next-the-Sea school swimming pool.
Brancaster Brewery
We now have a brewery on the doorstep. The Jolly Sailors has just opened the Brancaster Brewery offering two excellent real ales. IPA (Indian Pale Ale) and Old Les (named after Lesley who was a real village character). The Jolly is just a couple of minutes walk from Deepdale.
Stately Homes and Historical monuments
Starting with the local church, St. Mary's, which has a Norman Font and Saxon Round Tower. Within a few miles there are dozens of other churches each with their own history and relics. Admiral Lord Nelson was born at Burnham Thorpe, and although you can't access his birth place many of the local churches have some fascinating information. There is the remains of the old Roman Fort in Brancaster, and Sea Henge was discovered on the beach at Holme. If it's stately homes that you want then you won't be disappointed with Sandringham, Holkham and Houghton all only a few miles away.
