The only problem with going to almost anywhere in this part of the UK is the roads! You think you are almost there, as you leave the A1(M), but, then you have 70 miles (or more) or roads which do not seem to have been updated since the Romans built them for chariots! The A17 and A149 almost exclusively single carriageway, with large volumes of traffic.
We arrive mid afternoon, so, sitting in the sun followed by evening meal and red wine is the order of the day.
The site is typical Camping and Caravan Club, clean, organised, helpful and friendly staff.
First impressions are that it is a bit "remote", but, we will explore tomorrow, and review that opinion, perhaps.
We discover early in the morning, there appears to be an enormous population of Wood Pigeons, the noise of them "cooing" at dawn is enough to wake even me!

Another scorching hot day, 29C!
Before the heat builds up, we go on our cycle ride. We thought Norfolk was a flat county, but, we appear to have chosen the area with hills!
Cycle to Sandringham, via the attractively named Donkey Pond Hill Lane, then on to Dursingham, for lunch at the very pleasant Coach and Horses.
Just over 11 miles, which is more than enough in this heat!
We have had a pleasant lunch, and, found the Catholic Church, for Kathleen, on Sunday. I do hope we can remember the short way back (ie 2.5 miles rather than 7 miles). There appears to be a distinct lack of road signs in this part of Norfolk.
Afternoon spent lying in the sun.
