What makes Norfolk great for self-catering?

Norfolk is famous for its beaches. With such a long stretch of incredibly varied coastline, it’s no surprise most holiday makers are drawn to Norfolk in search of a cottage with the perfect sea view. The white sandy beach at Holkham with its stunning sand dunes is famous throughout England. Just around the coast the salt marshes at Cley provide a rare habitat for visiting birds (and bird watchers!) from around the country and abroad. Staying in Stiffkey or in a cottage in nearby Blakeney is a twitchers’ favourite. Hunstanton and other beaches provide stunning sea views with from on top of the chalk cliffs which look out over the ocean. Many of the beaches in Norfolk have been awarded blue flag status. The team at blueflag work hard to make sure that the Norfolk beaches they accredit are world leaders for safety, cleanliness and environmental management. We’re lucky to have so many beaches like Cromer, Sheringham, Sea Palling and Cley in Norfolk all achieving this accolade.

There are a large number of National Trust properties in the local area, ranging from stately homes and mansions such as Felbrigg Hall to areas of outstanding natural beauty like Blakeney Nature Reserve. Blickling Hall, a wonderful example of a Norfolk country manor house still retains its original 1930s decor. Every room, from the kitchen and the voluptuous bedrooms to the library and drawing room are immaculately preserved. The mansion’s superbly tended estate and kitchen gardens provide an ideal way to spend a sunny day, a wonderful setting for a countryside walk. It’s also worth noting that dogs are welcome in the hall’s beautiful gardens..

Inside the historic construction not only are regular art exhibitions hosted there is even an Anglo Saxon gallery, an exhibit of Egyptian mummies and to top it off the castle is home to the world’s largest collection of ceramic teapots.
