mYminiBreak offers glamping in Norfolk, UK across two locations — shepherd huts and a yurt in woodland near Holt, and shepherd huts on the North Norfolk Coast near Hunstanton. All options are fully dog-friendly, with working fireplaces, private outdoor space, and direct access to Norfolk’s best walking, wildlife and beaches.
There is a particular kind of quiet that settles in when the day is done, the fire is lit, and there is nothing between you and the stars but a thin wooden wall and the sound of an owl somewhere in the dark. That is glamping at mYminiBreak. We have two very different Norfolk landscapes to offer — ancient woodland near Holt on the edge of the North Norfolk Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and wide coastal grazing land near Hunstanton, looking out over Wild Ken Hill and the Wash. Both are genuinely wild. Both are genuinely comfortable. And both welcome your dog through the door.
Glamping in Norfolk — Two Landscapes, One Feeling
Norfolk glamping at mYminiBreak is not a row of identical huts in a field. Our two sites sit in completely different settings, drawing different kinds of guest for different kinds of trip.
Woodland Glamping Near Holt
The Holt site sits in private woodland on the edge of Holt Country Park, 12 miles inland from the Cromer and Sheringham coast. Shepherd huts, a yurt, and bell tents are set among trees in a lakeside clearing — secluded, quiet, and rich in birdsong. From your pitch, a confirmed car-free walking route through ancient woodland takes you to Holt town centre (15 minutes) and on to the free ruins of Baconsthorpe Castle — a medieval fortified manor house with no entry fee and no crowds. The only glamping in the area where you can walk pitch-to-castle entirely on foot along confirmed public rights of way.
Coastal Glamping Near Hunstanton
The Hunstanton site sits on the West Norfolk coast, on land that was historically part of the Ken Hill estate — the same estate now famous as the Wild Ken Hill rewilding project and a BBC Springwatch filming location. From your shepherd hut, the King Charles III England Coast Path runs directly through the rewilding land. Walk it south and you reach RSPB Snettisham, where 300,000 knot waders perform one of the world’s greatest wildlife spectacles each autumn and winter. Walk it north and you reach Holme Dunes National Nature Reserve, and the foreshore where Seahenge — a 4,000-year-old Bronze Age timber circle — was discovered in 1998.

Glamping in Norfolk — What to Know Before You Book
All mYminiBreak glamping accommodation is available year-round, though availability varies by season. Summer and school holiday dates book earliest. Autumn and winter at the Holt woodland site are particularly popular for the log-fire atmosphere and wildlife — tawny owls, deer, and red kites are regularly spotted from the pitches.
Both sites are fully dog-friendly at all times of year. Dogs sleep inside with you — no separate kennels, no restrictions on breed or number (please tell us when you book). The walking routes directly from both sites mean your dog gets a proper outing before you’ve even got in the car.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are all the glamping options dog-friendly?
Yes — completely. Dogs are welcome in all shepherd huts, the yurt, and bell tents at both sites. There is no breed restriction and no extra charge. Walking trails for dogs start directly from both sites. Please mention your dogs when you book so we can note the number.
What is the difference between the Holt and Hunstanton glamping sites?
Holt is a woodland site — secluded, tree-covered, with a lake, and a short walk from Holt town and Baconsthorpe Castle. Hunstanton is a coastal site — open skies, sea views, with direct access to the King Charles III England Coast Path and Wild Ken Hill. Both are mYminiBreak sites. Choose based on whether you want woodland or coast.
Is glamping available in winter in Norfolk?
Yes — the Holt woodland shepherd huts and yurt are equipped with wood-burning stoves and are available year-round. Winter glamping in Norfolk is popular for the wildlife, the quiet, and the fire-lit evenings. The autumn and winter months (September to February) are also the best time for RSPB Snettisham’s knot murmurations.
Do I need a car to get around from the glamping sites?
Not necessarily. The Holt site has a confirmed car-free walking route to Holt town centre and Baconsthorpe Castle ruins entirely on public rights of way. From Holt station you can access the North Norfolk Railway. The Hunstanton site has the Coast Path directly from the pitch — RSPB Snettisham is walkable. For wider exploration, a car is helpful but not essential for on-site activities.
Can I have a campfire at the glamping accommodation?
Yes — fire pits are available at the shepherd huts at both sites and at the bell tents. The yurt has an internal wood-burning stove. Firewood is available on site. Campfire safety guidelines apply — full details are provided at check-in.
How do I book glamping at mYminiBreak?
Book directly through the mYminiBreak booking system at norfolkcoast-cottage.co.uk. No third-party booking fees apply when you book direct. Gift vouchers for glamping breaks are also available to purchase online.
