Swans Harbour is a caravan and camping site in Norfolk, set in the upper reaches of the River Yare, just seven miles from Norwich and four miles from Wymondham. The four-acre landscaped site offers large pitches with hard standing and electrical hook-ups, a landscaped play area for children, and a heated toilet block kept warm through winter, alongside showers, a laundrette and Wi-Fi. Run by Julia and Geoff since 1978, it has a peaceful, well-kept feel with an ornamental pond on site. Dogs are welcome on a lead. It's a handy base for exploring the Norfolk countryside and coastline, with Wymondham Heritage Museum and Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure both under six miles away, and Wymondham station 4.7 miles distant.
