There are a number of features which make Fakenham Racecourse the prime site for a caravanning, camping or motorhome holiday in Norfolk. For many, it’s the location. Just 10 miles from the stunning North Norfolk coast. It is a short 10-minute walk into the market town of Fakenham which is at the heart of the County and surrounded by Norfolk’s finest attractions.
The site itself makes the perfect base. Our 125 pitches are set in beautiful countryside, some of which are sheltered by tall conifers and mature trees. The grounds and modern facilities are excellently maintained.
Directions: On approaching Fakenham please follow the signs for Fakenham Racecourse and/or the brown tourist signs which have a caravan symbol on them. Turn down the private, tree lined road to the racecourse (Satnav NR21 7NY) go past the tennis courts on your right, past the sports centre buildings on your left and continue straight over two speed bumps until you come to the reception building and office on your right hand side. STOP – you are there!!
Fakenham Racecourse Caravan and Camping Site is delighted to welcome our guests over the autumn. We want to reassure all guests that we have measures in place, to ensure the safety of all our staff and guests.
“We’re Good To Go” is the official UK mark to signal that a tourism and hospitality business such as the Fakenham Racecourse has worked hard to follow Government and industry COVID-19 guidelines and has a process in place to maintain cleanliness and aid social distancing.
PLEASE READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE YOU BOOK YOUR STAY
Please note that the Caravan & Camping Site IS NOW OPEN & PITCHES ARE AVAILABLE.
Payment is made in full at the time of booking, whether that be online or over the telephone and is non-refundable. This helps to reduce the interaction between guests and staff on site and speeds up the arrival process.
The Government’s recent announcement of a reduction in VAT from 20% to 5%, from 15th July 2020 until 12th January 2021, for certain businesses engaged in the accommodation, hospitality and leisure industries is greatly welcomed. Fakenham Racecourse Caravan & Camping Site has signed up to these new arrangements and we hope our guests will understand that we shall not be passing the reduction in VAT onto our guests. The VAT reduction is there to help businesses get through these very challenging times and to try and make up for some of the lost income incurred during lock down. Thank you for your understanding and support for Fakenham Racecourse.
In addition, the following protocols will be in place to ensure the site complies with the COVID-19 Secure guidelines:
