Due to the recent nice weather, Muntjac Meadow is open early this year for the May Half Term from just £23 per night.
Open from 23rd May throughout the half term holidays and then returning for the Summer Holidays, opening from the 18th July. The site is then open until early September when we change to weekend bookings only. Start planning your Summer camping and campervan trips with us.
Wild Camping at Muntjac Meadow
Camping in nature as a whole offers a multitude of benefits both physically and mentally for all ages. The meadow is a wild camping experience that does just that.
Firstly, Muntjac Meadow provides an opportunity to spend time on holiday disconnected from technology. Just imagine, finally having a conversation. No distraction with social media feeds, emails, and online gaming!
Spending time outdoors is renowned as a great way to help recharge, rejuvenate, and reduce stress levels. Embracing the joys of the outside and Norfolk air will definitely help improve mental health and boost your mood.
Furthermore, camping in nature encourages physical activity. Whether it's walking through scenic trails and public footpaths. Wandering through woodland and building dens with the kids. Or having a family game of cricket, there’s plenty to entertain with a little imagination and exploration both at the site and in the surrounding Norfolk countryside, the coast and the Norfolk Broads. Take a look at our recent blogs 'Things to do with kids' and 'Stargazing in North Norfolk' for some inspiration.
Outdoor activities not only promote health but also help gain a greater appreciation for the environment. It’s an opportunity to look at the world in a new way and potentially teach children the importance of conservation and the appreciation of what’s on our doorstep. Muntjac Meadow is particularly well cared for and guests are kindly asked to help us maintain this natural beauty by leaving the site as found on arrival.
Due to the meadow’s location, it is just as beautiful at night as it is by day. With no light pollution, you’ll be able to gaze at the Norfolk star-filled skies while enjoying the warmth of a campfire. There are many apps available for free to download which track the constellations.
Camping Facilities at the Meadow
At the meadow we’ve mixed the wild side of camping with a few little luxuries. You will find a very clean and well-maintained shower and WC block at the entrance to the meadow. The amenities block also features access to drinking water and undercover washing-up facilities.
To maintain our well-kept camping venue, you’ll also find waste disposal bins for general waste and recycling.
Muntjac Meadow is completely dog-friendly, although we do require dogs to be kept on lead to ensure no wandering into other tents and so owners are aware of where their dog chooses to do its business. Dog poo bins are provided onsite. We do, however, have an enclosed exercise area where dogs can be off-lead to play, sniff, and explore under the supervision of their owners.
A wild camping must-have is a campfire. Campfires are permitted at the meadow except for very dry seasons when we’ll make guests aware of regulation changes. However, campfires must be raised off the ground. If you don’t have a firepit with you, these are available on-site for guest use. If you plan to have a campfire, ensure you follow the designated fire safety guidelines. Clear the area around the fire, keep it attended at all times, and fully extinguish it before leaving.
As the name suggests, we share the meadow and the surrounding area with some gorgeous four-legged creatures. Muntjac and red deer can be found in the surrounding woodland as well as crossing and grazing in the meadow around dusk and dawn. If you’re hoping to see the deer, take a look at the National Trust’s guide to deer spotting for tips.
The meadow is separate from the main Deer’s Glade holiday park, but with only a short 5-minute stroll you’ll find yourself at the main park with reception, an onsite shop, fishing lake, and play area. We currently also have some baby lambs staying with us alongside our goat enclosure. Take a look at camping at Deer’s Glade.
