| Kelling Heath - Is located amongst 250 acres of woodland and heathland in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close to the North Norfolk coastline at Weybourne.
The majority of Kelling Heath lies on a feature known as the Cromer Ridge formed during the last ice age. The Park falls within the North Norfolk area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and borders Kelling Heath itself, which is an extensive tract of lowland heathland designated as a site of special scientific interest. Arable fields and two Forestry Commission woodland complete the surrounding area. In developing a commercially viable destination, our aim was to do so in sympathy with the environment whilst educating our guests’ and visiting organisations. In developing the infrastructure and facilities consideration has been given to those with disabilities despite the environmental constraints of the location.

General Description - Within the 250 acres Kelling Heath provides pitches for private holiday homes which can be purchased, pitches for touring caravans and tents and a small number of holiday hire caravans and lodges.
A range of facilities centred on the Village Square are available and an activity and entertainment package is provided.
Sound environmental management of the woodland and heathland habitat is of primary importance and the park has been developed in a way that is sensitive to and in keeping with the environment. For example, away from the Village Square and its facilities, roads and paths are typical of a natural woodland and heathland location and may not be suitable for those with disabilities.
Touring Pitches - Are located in three areas on flat level grassland. Pitches can be made available close to the amenity buildings each of which has a disabled facility with access controlled via a RADAR key. Parking is available beside pitches.

During 2005 the Health & Fitness Club became involved with the IFI (Inclusive Fitness Initiative), their aim being “To make Fitness inclusive to all”. A full accessibility audit was undertaken to determine the needs of the Leisure Club and its facilities in order to meet the IFI requirements.
This involved for example, upgrading the fitness studio equipment to improve accessibility and improving the signage around the complex.
The Leisure Staff have undertaken a CYQ (Central YMCA Qualification) in Inclusive health, fitness and disability which enables the gym instructors to teach people with a wide range of disabilities.
There is level access to the outdoor pool and guests’ may use the changing room in the Health & Fitness club.

Activities - The Park is one of five key disabled access sites in the area of Outstanding Natural Beauty through a partnership with the Norfolk Coast Project. It enjoys an easy access trail giving less able bodied people the opportunity to experience the heathland habitat and views across the North Sea from an interpretation point.
Due to the woodland and heathland habitat some of the activities may be unsuitable for those with disabilities. The countryside team will be pleased to offer further advice.
