 The description of "Hideaway" is accurate!

The site is approached along a tree lined farm track, then past the farm down another tree lined track to the site, a very secluded field with plenty of wild life.

The bottom end of the field can apparently be wet, so perhaps that end not for campervans (no bus stops either).

Within easy reach of many north Norfolk attractions such as Holkham beach, Brancaster beach, Wells next the sea and national trust houses.

 I have just returned from a weekend at Birds Farm. We were a party of 19, including 7 children, with 3 tents and 2 campervans. The site is very quiet with stunning views of the country side. Mrs Hunt was very helpful when I booked, describing the site and the facilities, she was there when we arrived and helped us find the best pitches for our extended party while considering the other guests and their needs at the same time.

The toilets and shower were basic but clean and as described by the owner when booking. The ducks and chickens were friendly and made a lovely addition to the weekend and they were very patient with 4 toddlers chasing them around.

I would definitely recommend this site if you are after a beautiful quiet spot, with no fuss and away from the masses. A great Norfolk field with views in which to make a temporary home. We'll be back again soon.

 This is a small Camping and Caravanning Club members only site comprising a slightly sloping field, two unisex toilets, each with a sink, and a shower. The toilets and shower were very clean and are located next to the house, so take a torch. The price was £10 per pitch per night. The tent pegs were easy to get in. Ducks, geese and chickens wandered freely around the site, which was a nice touch. There is no shop in Hindringham, the nearest village, but there is a farm shop near the pay and display car park in Walsingham, near the Shrine. We went to Wells-next-the-Sea on the light railway - a bit expensive at £21 return for an adult and two children but very enjoyable. It was, however, very difficult to find and is poorly signposted at the Walsingham end (it is close to the pay and display car park). We were very impressed with this site - the owners are very approachable and helpful - and would stay there again if we are in the area. Note however that riding bikes on the site is not allowed - this might be worth considering if you have children.

 Hide away site located well out of village down single track road. No problems meeting other traffic as road not used by many. Would not to meet another caravan if towing though. Site fairly level but beware of moles trying to make hills under tent. Plenty of electric hook ups for those that need them but some look a bit dodgy on rotten wooden posts and not locally fused. 4 taps for fresh water (tastes like spring water - lovely) plus chemical disposal point. Shower and toilets could do with a regular cleaning as it looked like the shower was not cleaned at all while I was there and I hate to think what was lurking under the slatted floor.

Site is good for lazy bird watching as there are several uncultivated areas (wild) to provide a good habitat. Barn owl often seen in evening. Several permissive paths around local fields good for walking.

Good butchers in Binham a few mins away by car, else Morrisons in Fakenham (about 8 miles) or local shops in Wells (about 6 miles). Coast not far away with good walking and birding. Best naturist beach in the country at Holkam not too far away but take a windbreak as it is a big open beach that can get windy. North Norfolk Steam Railway at Holt is short journey away.

Overall a nice quiet place to stay and well located for exploring the area. Only downsides are the state of the toilets and showers but this may have been due to the August peak season and not adapting the cleaning routine to the number of people staying on the site.

 Lovely site and very friendly helpful owners. There is one shower on this site and two separate toilet cubicles which also have a sink. Reasonably clean but a short walk up the lane, next to the farm house. Very dark at night so make sure you have a torch. Very friendly chickens, chicks and ducks etc and the horses are quite entertaining too! We would definitely return to this site if ever in the area again, as it is level, good electric and was a very pleasant stay.
