Mill Farm Camping

Mill Farm Camping sits just outside Norwich in Norfolk, offering a straightforward base for exploring the Norfolk Broads and surrounding countryside. It's a working farm setting rather than a flashy resort - the sort of place where you pitch your tent or park your van and get on with actually being outdoors rather than queuing for activities.

The appeal here is simplicity. You're camping on farmland, which means you're genuinely in the countryside without being miles from civilisation. Norwich is within reach if you fancy a proper town day out, and the Broads are the real draw - brilliant for kayaking, birdwatching, and just mucking about on the water. Families with kids who don't need constant entertainment tend to do well here. So do walkers and people interested in Norfolk's wetland habitats.

Nearby alternatives include Deer's Mead and Deer's Glade, both within a couple of miles, plus Top Farm Campsite and Glen Farm Norfolk further out if Mill Farm is full. Two Mills Touring Park and Woodland Holiday Park offer different vibes depending on what you're after.

I'd allow at least a few days here to make the journey worthwhile - one night feels rushed. Spring and autumn are cracking times; summer gets busy with school holidays. Winters are muddy and cold, though quieter if that appeals to you. Bring proper waterproofs whatever the season. Norfolk weather turns on a sixpence.

Not a destination in itself, but a sensible spot for a Norfolk Broads holiday where camping matters more than frills.
