East Norfolk |
This corner of Norfolk can be quiet and unspoilt, with both the Broads and the coast to explore. |
||||||||||||||||||||
East Norfolk is quiet, unspoilt and relatively undiscovered. The East Norfolk Coast has some of the best beaches in Norfolk and are usually empty - they make a great place to walk the dog or fly a kite. You will find stunning lighthouses and windmills - buildings that make Norfolk so famous! East Norfolk is great for walkers and has paths that give some the best views in Norfolk - the path from Cromer to Overstrand for example. Inland, the North Eastern corner of the Norfolk Broads is equally tranquil; with most of the cruisers unable to pass under Potter Heigham bridge. There are nature reserves, peaceful villages, wildlife and plenty of country pubs to discover. With lots of wide open space, this wind swept corner of Norfolk is great to forget your busy life and get some fresh air! |

East Norfolk starts at Cromer, a classic seaside town, situated on a cliff-top overlooking fine sandy beaches. Cromer Pier has survived despite bad damage and has a Lifeboat Station and Pavilion Theatre, which still stages end of pier shows. |

Linking Cromer with Overstrand, is one of the best walks in Norfolk. A cliff top path takes you past the Cromer Lighthouse and the Royal Cromer Golf Course. Overstrand itself is a lovely village and attracted many rich and famous people to build holiday homes. |

The North East corner of the Norfolk Broads are equally remote as many boats cannot navigate through Potter Heigham bridge to get here! However, this corner of the Broads contain some real treasures, such as the windmill at Horsey and the villages of Martham, Hickling and West Somerton. |

At Winterton on Sea, we discover a lovely unspoilt ancient coastal village, with miles of beaches and sand dunes. Although we are only a few miles north of Great Yarmouth, there are no amusements here, just pretty cottages, a lovely 300 year old pub, a cathedral sized church and a nearby windfarm. |

Just north of Great Yarmouth is little Yarmouth - better known as Hemsby! The beach is the main attraction here, but there is plenty of amusements, entertainment, shops and refreshments for the whole family to enjoy. |
