Message from the owner:

The Hank’s Ranch journey started many moons ago when we spent months back packing around Europe, where the dream of owning a campsite started to take shape. Years went by with the dream still at the back of our minds until we visited America and started to fall in love with the old Wild West, visiting ghost towns and learning about the cowboys of history. It is at this point we bought a 3.5 acre site in North Norfolk and started to build Hank’s Ranch. So now we have a wonderful location in Norfolk, and in an area that is wonderful for exploring the great outdoors, for walking or cycling or to visit the north Norfolk beaches 45 minutes away or the many other attractions Norfolk has to offer.
