A campsite in north Norfolk has been named the best in the country. 

Deepdale Camping in Burnham Deepdale, near Brancaster, has been named the AA Small Campsite of the Year 2023. 

Hundreds of campsites across the country are in the running for the award following inspections each year.

Chris Haycock, managing director of the site, said: "We knew that the inspector who visited us this year liked our facilities but we had no advance warning of this national award.

"This award is a huge compliment to our wonderful team and the facilities we have at Deepdale. 

"To have been selected for the award is absolutely fantastic and the team are really proud of this accolade."

The existing team at Deepdale, led by Mr Haycock and Jason Borthwick, took on the running of the site in 2016 after the facilities had been leased out for seven years.

Mr Borthwick added: "Our team are what sets Deepdale apart from the majority of other campsites. 

"Their dedication and care really help customers enjoy their stays with us."
