Lousy Bush Wood

The name alone will raise a smile - Lousy Bush Wood lives up to its cheeky billing as a proper Norfolk woodland just east of Hunstanton. It's the sort of place you stumble upon rather than plan for, a modest stretch of mature trees and undergrowth that rewards a quiet wander if you're staying at one of the nearby holiday parks like Manor Park or Searles Leisure Resort.

There's nothing flashy about it. You're looking at woodland paths, dappled light filtering through leaves, and the kind of peaceful quiet that makes you remember why you came to Norfolk in the first place. In spring the woodland floor comes alive; autumn turns the whole thing golden and brown. It's genuinely good for stretching your legs between seaside visits to Hunstanton proper, particularly if you've got kids who need to burn off energy away from the beach.

Walkers will get the most from this - it's a destination for a solid 45 minutes to an hour of ambling rather than a themed attraction. There's nothing to pay, nothing to book, nothing to overthink. Just turn up and walk. Best avoided in the depths of winter when it gets properly muddy and the paths disappear under leaf litter.

If you're basing yourself at one of the holiday parks nearby, slot it into a morning before heading to the coast. It's the sort of local knowledge spot that actually makes a caravan holiday worth doing - not Instagram-famous, just genuinely pleasant.
