Escape the beaten track and the smog of the big city to this wonderfully chilled out place in the heart of Burnham Deepdale. This beautiful village is by the sea in an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’. Deepdale Stables is a hostel built by backpackers for backpackers. There are watersports and outdoor activities of every sort, beautiful beaches and historical buildings, so you can be as active as you want. Of course you might just like to chill out and relax, so why not try one of our superb local pubs serving local beers and excellent seafood! The village is famous for it’s mussels. We offer dorms, twin, triple and quad rooms, which all have ensuite shower rooms. All bedding is provided, so no need to bring a sleeping bag with you, you’ll just need a towel. The hostel is centred around a partially covered old stable courtyard and the buildings date back to 17th Century. They’ve been restored in the traditional style, and where possible we have used green technologies to reduce the environmental impact. There are many facilities on offer including a cafe, bbq area, laundry, internet access and a watersports centre right on our doorstep. Camping is also available.

Kitesurfing and windsurfing are major sports on the Norfolk coast. Whether you are just being dragged along the sand by the kite (intentionally or by accident) or surfing and buggying. Kite surfing and kiting can be done most places, with Brancaster and Hunstanton beaches being very popular. Kite buggying is a little less popular with the authorities, but there are some excellent locations for it, like the West end of Brancaster beach. We run a kiting weekend twice a year in association with PartyZone, as an introduction to kiting. Please visit our website for more details. Some of the best surf can be had on the East Coast - Runton & Cromer Beach. From there you can strike out to Mundesley, Bacton, and a dozen secret spots. Or, you can just walk to the local beach breaks.
