Fabulous little campsite, quiet, wild camping with a tap, toilet and a shower. Just as I like it.

Well set up for COVID-19, lots of space.

Pub walkable.

Dark skies for stars.

If you like getting away from the crowds and listening to the sounds of the wildlife then this friendly place is perfect. Plenty of space for little ones to run around (canine or human). It's all in one open field, so bring some shade if you need it. As well as a fire pit and a large BBQ, there's a tap with drinking water in the field and a picnic bench for each tent (there were four tents when we were there and it was full). The shower / toilet room is very clean. Hosts Roberta and Ned were very helpful. Bring some insect repellent if you go in summer as there were a few horse flies. Georgia, Lenny (8) and Olive (6)

Myself and partner stayed on site for one night in early June. We regularly visit the coast but rarely stay over. But that's all in the past! We loved our stay and plan to come back many times in the future (not least because we got engaged just 100m down the coastal path!). The site is quiet and small (although plenty of space for the max. 6 tents). The shower and toilet facilities are basic but clean and the shower is hot. The location is it's selling feature; Mortson is a wonderfully quiet part of the coast to enjoy. The local pub serves very good food and drinks. And the location is close enough to Blakeney if you'd prefer other places to try. Thanks to Roberta for looking after us!

I was the only camper, so it felt like wild camping with a toilet and shower. Lovely welcome and perfect location, just off the coast path and 10 mins from pub. Will be back.

We absolutely loved our stay here over a weekend in May, wandering around Morston Quay out to the marshes early in the morning was magical and walks along the coastal path in both directions were fabulous Best campsite for us, a fairly quiet couple travelling without children.

The site was a perfect retreat for me, first time camping solo for a while, I was made to feel welcome, safe and relaxed by friendly proprietors. Clean, efficiently managed and limited (re number of other pitches) my long weekend at Scaldbeck, provided me with opportunity to walk for miles, absorb the colours and sounds of the beautiful saltmarshes, wide open skies/horizons; socialise (if I chose to) or just chill out and decompress (yoga, sketch, live off local fresh produce, samphire/eggs/cheeses etc). Other fellow campers were interesting, kind and respectful - facilities, clean and basic, are all one needs. I’d recommend taking citronella sticks if you sit out late evenings; a mallet does come in handy as due to lack of rainfall, the ground was hard (although grass/pitch fine and level). A creative chef/birdwatcher/artists paradise - and great place to unwind. Fab.

I stayed in the cottage for a night whilst running the Norfolk Coastal path. The owners are genuinely friendly, helpful and local people. The stay was very comfortable and the quality of food and ambience of the Anchor Inn at Morston very welcome.

A lovely little site, quiet and very basic (as outlined in the campsite details) We loved it, I didn't want to leave! A couple of minutes walk from Morston Quay, we went down at all states of tide, a walk on the marshes in the light of the full moon was a magical experience. Walk the coast path and get the bus back, catch the steam train from Holt to Sheringham, visit the seals...so much to do with a peaceful haven to come back to. One toilet and shower never a problem with so few people on site and if you are really desperate, there are toilets at Morston Quay which are open late.

Just returned from another lovely weekend in Norfolk.

Stayed at this site a couple of times and although it's a basic site the loo is always clean and I've met some lovely people.

I love this part of Norfolk there's so much to do a weekend is not long enough.

The site itself is indeed tiny and in my opinion perfect.

This is a small and quiet site with all the facilities you need for a relaxing break. Its light on showers but with so few people it doesn't matter and its always good to shower with a friend ;-)

Excellent location for hiking along the coast.

I'd certainly return and recommend it to friends...

This is where to come if you've had enough of characterless sites, over-priced guest houses in ubiquitous Farrow and Ball colours. It's a beautiful, peaceful site with shower and toilet. It may be a small but there is a great sense of space. Friendly, curious, atmospheric and above all genuine. Informality is the key here. Ned and Roberta are a knock-out team, their breakfasts will set you up for walks, cycling or sailing (at nearby Norfolk Etc), and The Anchor pub in the village will look after you in the evening. Failing that there are trestle tables and barbeque facilities.

My wife and I took our 2 year old daughter to camp whilst the older boys were at a youth pilgrimage in nearby Walsingham.

The site is perfect for those who love the camping side of things rather than the on-site entertainment camping. We were shown around when we arrived and told to just pitch up where we wanted.

The picnic benches were an unexpected bonus and we made good use of the campfire as well to cook so jacket potatoes (once a scout...). The facilities were always clean and supplied with loo roll etc and the shower was good with plenty of heat/pressure

Even with the max number on site there was still no real queue for the shower and toilet which was our one concern with a young child.

Booked again for next year :)
