A suggestion for an area to look at would be around Great Yarmouth. Norfolk is quite flat (good for bikes) and it's an area which has the least rain fall in the Country. By staying around Great Yarmouth there are plenty of eating places / pubs etc. You aren't to far from the city of Norwich which has a good shopping area and a castle to visit. I can't recommend a specific site as we have always stayed in North Norfolk but we have family who live just outside of Norwich so we have visited them over the years.
I hope i have given you a starting point.

Another one for North Norfolk, we have been to Kelling HeathKelling Heath. It does have privacy if you pick the right plots, it has a free outdoor pool and a chargeable indoor pool, although there is a fun wave pool in nearby sherringham. The site is big as it also has lodges etc but very flat for riding round on bikes and has a little railway station on site that you can take your bikes on to Sherringham. There isn't wifi around the park but there is in the centre and restaurant/bar which is free. There is a restaurant on site and pizza shop, not many chain restaurants locally but lots of pubs restaurants that are child friendly. The have a little bandstand outside reception where they have music in the evening next to the table tennis/bowling and the important wifi, so you can grab a drink while the kids play. Other option we had a lovely time on the Isle of Wight at [URL=http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1707]Ninham[/URL, Wifi in the tv/games room where the older kids/teens hang out in the evening, outdoor pool, lots of family restaurants around, nice flat disused cycle track, although a little less private pitches. Hope that helps.

Kelling Heath campsite is great for woods, pool, onsite pizza place and other catering, but it is four and a half miles from Sheringham which has precisely no familiar chain restaurants. It does have fish and chips, family orientated cafes etc, though. 4 or 5 miles away is Holt which has 2 chip shops, (good), an Indian, a takeaway kebab shop and some upmarket restaurants. Lovely part of the world, but a good old drive from Lancaster. And the N Norfolk coast has a very patchy phone signal.
