Seaview Dog Meadow

The meadow itself is what you're after here - a proper coastal strip of grassland where dogs have run free for generations, just east of Holt. It's the kind of place where you'll see spaniels charging through long grass while their owners shout themselves hoarse, and nobody minds a bit. The views back towards the Norfolk coast are decent rather than dramatic, with that flat horizon you either love or find a touch melancholy.

What makes it work is the lack of fuss. No visitor centre, no entrance fee, no someone trying to sell you a branded pencil. Just open ground where dogs genuinely seem happier than anywhere else - there's something about the space and the freedom that gets them going. You'll manage an hour comfortably, longer if you're the type to wander aimlessly, which Norfolk encourages.

It's squarely a dog owners' spot, though anyone after a quiet coastal walk won't be disappointed. Families with restless terriers will get genuine value from this. The nearest proper base is Holt, a pleasant market town five miles back. From Kelling Heath Holiday Park - only 4.8 miles away - it's an easy morning outing, and the other caravan sites nearby make it sensible for a multi-day Norfolk trip. Go early if you want the place to yourself. Wind can be fierce in winter, brilliant in summer. Worth the detour if dogs are part of your holiday equation; skip it otherwise.
