SEACROFT HOLIDAY CAMP (Hemsby, Norfolk) - resident camper's enamel badge (1960's). A scarce badge.
Postage is extra.
.
For sale is a resident camper's badge issued by the SEACROFT holiday camp at Hemsby in Norfolk. Seacroft was established in 1920 and was then modelled on the Caister's Holiday Camp, also in Norfolk. Seacroft was an adult-only holiday camp.
Seacroft was bought over by Pontins holidays in 1971 and they remodelled the camp's facilities that included replacing the wooden chalets with a modern style two-story prefabricated structure. Pontins closed Seacroft at short notice and the camp closed in January 2008 with the site put up for sale for redevelopment.
Seacroft holiday camp is not to be confused with its neighbouring holiday camp which was run by the Richardson family. This camp is still in business as the Richardson's Hemsby Beach Holiday Park and is currently undergoing a major refurbishment as at 2021.
