2 Mill Touring Park - A peaceful break at 2 Mill Touring Park turned into a lovely Norfolk escape, complete with easy strolls, friendly chats and that satisfying feeling when you find a pitch that just works. From relaxed days out to cosy evenings and a few gentle giggles along the way, this cheerful stop delivered simple pleasures in a spot that’s calm, welcoming and perfect for unwinding on the road. Arrived about 1.45 pm after a rather long and tedious journey where our wonderful satnav took us on a rather roundabout journey, hey ho, maybe its back to the map next time *smile* Nice campsite, best of british, 81 standing pitches some with water. Very peaceful and quiet and an adult only site. We were on the lower level next to Pete & Joy in pitches 12 & 11 respectively. The 2 higher levels were called Panorama & Top acre, O2 phone service only at Top Acre. Had some probs with van i.e. service had left ALL water and cold taps on…. Plus smell of Sulphur caused by new relay over charging habitation battery – not good news , going back into Don Amott's on Tuesday, hence need for phone service! Pete & Joy arrived about 6pm-ish. We had some nice ale and wine to get the weekend started. Had a lovely lasagna and salad that Joy cooked , then pud and cheese, bikkies and wine. Lots of happy talking and then to bed. Saturday was a bit mixed weather wise. We walked into town via the fields and past many lovely bungalows with great gardens and explored this quaint market town. We had lunch in a town hostelry (Kings Arms – would recommend), saw 1st half of the 5th ODI cricket between NZ & us. Exciting, nice lunch and Kings Arms ale. Walked back and just got back in time before downpour. Reading , chillin in P&J’s van then BBQ for tea – chicken, burgers and large jumbo hot dog sausages and salad followed by English strawberries, raspberries and Greek yoghurt. Wine, madeira and port HIC! Sunday cooked breakfast , P&J had to leave cos daughter was coming around for dinner, said our goodbyes just as the weather really picked up (typical) glorious sunshine. The site is nice with friendly wardens and excellent facilities , we would definitely return Then after our goodbyes it was off about 11.30 am for us and onto East Runton and a nice walk to the beach and views of Cromer pier, then onto Wells-next-sea with a lot going on as it was father’s day here in the UK. Walked to beach and wind surfing areas and the little train, then back in the van and off home thru Lincolnshire and Grantham to Sandiacre. All in all a fab relaxing weekend again! Looking forward to the next time we are there. 140 pictures in the SLIDESHOW

SITE REVIEW

Two Mills Touring Park stands out as one of Norfolk’s highest‑rated motorhome sites thanks to its combination of peaceful surroundings, excellent facilities and genuinely exceptional customer service. The park is AA 5 Star Gold and VisitEngland 5 Star rated, and has repeatedly won TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards, placing it among the top touring parks in the UK.

For motorhomers, the practical benefits are immediate. All 81 pitches are fully serviced hard standings, each with electric hook‑up, fresh water and grey‑waste disposal, making setup simple and stress‑free. The site’s layout across eight landscaped acres ensures space, privacy and easy maneuvering — something reviewers consistently praise. Many guests also highlight the warm welcome from the owners and wardens, who often guide visitors onto their pitch and provide tailored local advice. The UK Camp Site says so.

Facilities are modern, spotless and well‑maintained, including heated amenity blocks, free hot showers, dishwashing areas, a launderette and a disabled unit. Motorhomers particularly appreciate the motorhome service point, the small but well‑stocked shop, and thoughtful extras such as information on motorhome‑friendly car parks in the area.

The location is another major advantage. The park sits between the Norfolk Coast and the Broads, with beaches, wildlife reserves, walking routes and historic towns all within easy reach. North Walsham is just a 20‑minute walk away for supplies, pubs and restaurants.

Add in the dog‑friendly woodland walk, peaceful adult‑only environment and consistently glowing reviews, and it’s clear why Two Mills is considered one of the best motorhome bases in Norfolk.
