Treehouse Woodland Cabins on the Norfolk Broads, near Norwich
If the summer months have you dreaming of escaping to the woods and enjoying relaxing days by the Norfolk Broads, you need to book a stay at Whitlingham Broad Campsite. I stayed at this beautiful campsite last summer and it was dreamy – they have gorgeous treehouse woodland cabins overlooking the water. It doesn't stop there, the campsite also has direct Broads access for swimming, paddle-boarding, hiring boats or kayaking. It's the perfect place for the whole family to unwind and there's even an activity centre where you can join activities or hire equipment to enjoy the river. Why not take paddle-boards or hire a boat and cruise down the river to stop at the charming countryside pubs that line the riverbanks?
