One of the driest and sunniest regions of the UK, Norfolk has
vast stretches of fine, sandy beach, abundant natural wildlife and
a relatively isolated location, making it a first-class destination
for a truly get-away-from-it-all break. The lack of direct motorway
access through East Anglia only enhances its credentials at the
place to get out into the fresh air and way off the beaten track. A
Norfolk cottage holiday opens the door to seaside fun at
established coastal resorts such as Cromer, Hunstanton and
Great
Yarmouth; historic buildings and ancient abbeys, such
as those at Wymondham or
Norwich; nature reserves and beautiful gardens; picturesque rural
villages and compact cities such as King's Lynn, and the unique
environment that is the stunning, serene Norfolk
Broads.
Many holidaymakers booking a Norfolk cottage head for the
county's wide range of coastal resorts. Even during the peak
holiday season, Norfolk's beaches remain relatively quiet, and
with a little effort it is still possible to find yourself your
own, unspoilt stretch of sand. Old Hunstanton, on the county's
north coast, has a glorious stretch of sand dotted with red and
white beach huts and backed by towering dunes. Further along the
coast, discover delightful seaside towns, such as Brancaster, with
its bustling harbour teeming with fishing vessels landing the daily
catch of crayfish, crab and lobster. In Victorian times, nearby
Cromer was the resort on the north Norfolk coast. Today, this fine
town is a bustling holiday centre during the summer season with a
famous pier, wide stretches of sandy beach ideal for families and a
good range of shops and services. Neighbouring Sheringham,
Holt and
Weybourne offer excellent beaches, while Great Yarmouth is the
largest of the resorts along this part of the coast. For a
quintessential seaside resort town with plenty of golden sand and
everything to keep the children entertained, it makes a great base
for a Norfolk cottage holiday. The wider Great Yarmouth area boasts
no less than fifteen miles of fine sandy beach, extending from
Winterton in the north to Hopton in the south, while the town's
Golden Mile is a jumble of fun fair rides, arcades, slot machines,
candyfloss and ice cream stands, and horse-drawn and high-tech
rides, offering family thrills and spills galore. Lowestoft and
Southwold also offer the traditional beside-the-sea experience for
those looking for a seaside Norfolk cottage.
Norfolk offers much more than just sea and sand. For an altogether
different break, experience the tranquillity of a Norfolk cottage
holiday at the heart of the Norfolk Broads; a vast network of
rivers, lakes, nature reserves, marshes and bird sanctuaries in the
eastern part of the county. Interesting towns and villages abound
in the Broads area, and a Norfolk cottage in this part of the
region allows exploration of miles of unspoilt, lock-free
waterways, since many barges and boats may be rented by the day or
the afternoon. The scenery changes little throughout the region,
but the ecology of the area is unique, and for a slow pace of life
and 'get away from it all' sensation, the Broads is a
captivating part of the country.
Nature lovers will find a Norfolk cottage holiday a truly rewarding
experience. Bird watchers are drawn to the area, which is rich in
RSPB sites; those at Cley Marshes Nature Reserve, Blakeney,
Titchwell and Snettisham Reserves are just a fraction of those
found in the region. Gardeners too will find a host of fabulous
places to visit; gardens at Hoveton near Wroxham or the Fairhaven
Woodland and Water Garden on the Norfolk Broads are just two of the
many fine examples, and the famous, fragrant purple carpets of
lavender at Cayley Mill near Heacham are not to be missed.
Those holidaying with children will find Norfolk an excellent
destination, with a whole host of child-friendly visitor
attractions in addition to the enduring appeal of the seaside.
There are miniature railways, such as those at Lynnsport, near
King's
Lynn, and the North Norfolk Railway near Sheringham;
numerous Farm Parks like Snettisham near King's Lynn; the
Dinosaur Adventure Park between Norfolk and Fakenham; Banham Zoo or
Hunstanton's Sealife Sanctuary. For an active Norfolk cottage
holiday, then the Norfolk Coastal Path heads through a designated
Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, whilst the flat terrain of the
fens makes the Norfolk Coastal Cycleway a scenic, yet not overly
taxing, way to explore the county by bike. Bouddica's Way
offers additional rambling opportunity, starting in the picturesque
village of Diss, and Thetford Forest Park is a veritable outdoor
playground. A vast expanse of managed forest on the edge of the
pretty market town of Thetford, the Park has plenty of discovery
trails, a high ropes course, adventure playground, cycle routes and
a giant sculpture trail.
History remains alive in the buildings and monuments of
Norfolk's towns and villages, and in the fine country estates
dotted throughout the region. A Norfolk cottage holiday affords you
the freedom to discover them at your own pace. Visit Somerleyton
Hall near Great Yarmouth, the National Trust's Fellbrigg Hall
near Cromer, Blicking Hall - reputedly haunted by the ghost of Anne
Boleyn, near Norwich - or Sandringham House, summer residence of
the Royal family. See the famous Christian shrine at Walsingham,
Norwich's castle and cathedral, Castle Rising Anglo-Norman fort
near King's Lynn, or beautiful Wymondham Abbey. In the wider
East Anglia
region, a full day is easily spent amid the soaring
spires of the University town of Cambridge.
A Norfolk cottage holiday makes an ideal choice for a weekend
break, as well as amply filling the requirements for a main family
summer holiday. Norfolk cottages around the coastal resorts offer
everything you might expect from a traditional English seaside
holiday but with less in the way of crowds and traffic, whilst the
unspoilt beauty of the Norfolk Broads can be readily enjoyed from
our hand picked collection of East Anglia holiday homes. Your
Norfolk cottage - whether it be a character property for a romantic
retreat or a large Norfolk holiday home near
the coast - will provide a home from home in this most
tranquil and unspoilt of regions.
