What makes Norfolk great for self-catering?

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.

While Norfolk is not known for its woodlands, there are a few hidden gems in Nelson’s county. The huge expanse of historic woodland found at Theford Forest is perhaps the most versatile part of the county, offering a huge range of holiday activities. Thetford can be great for couples looking for somewhere romantic who can spend their vacation in peace; walking, cycling and pony riding amongst the bracken and protected red squirrel population. Thrill-seekers with accommodation near Thetford Forest will not be disappointed either. Mountain biking, orienteering, survival skills training and even paintballing are all possibilities for your holiday in Norfolk.
Are you looking for something a little different from your break in Norfolk? We have an excellent selection of holiday accommodation to suit people who are looking for something out of the ordinary. You could consider renting a large cottage or barn conversion so that you can stay with a large group of friends.

If you’re more of the outdoor type, you could book a camping holiday - there’s a great selection of Norfolk camp sites, and many of them are along the famous Peddar’s Way cycle/walking trail.
