Thorpe campsite Thetford Forest Norfolk to close
Hi this is a heads up for anyone who uses the Thorpe Campsite in Thetford Forest.
Although run by Camping in the Forest the lease belongs to Forest Holidays who have put in a planning application to Breckland Council to remove all the camping and caravan pitches and replace them with 70 cabins.
This appears to have been a long term plan but we were only made aware of this in late July.
As fas as we know, bookings are not being taken past this current season (31st October).
Help and advice on how we can fight this development would be greatly appreciated.

The planning application went in on the 5th August and can be found here:
