NORTH NORFOLK

North Norfolk is one of England’s coastal treasures; this northern part of Norfolk offers a wealth of individuality under its famous ‘big skies’.

Whether you want to see birds, walk along unspoilt beaches, bathe in the sea, sample the ‘local’ seafoods, explore the little towns and seek out hidden villages; or simply enjoy the tranquility, its all within easy reach of Home Farm.

You can also take in the traditional seaside resort, visit stately homes, ride on steam railways, enjoy gardens – or just ride a bicycle wherever your fancy takes you.

There are many undisturbed walks and cycle routes along the Roman road and green lanes that pass the farm. There is excellent sailing and sailing tuition at Burnham Overy Staithe and Brancaster and boat trips to see the seals at Blakeney Point. Both neighbouring villages have a pub, with further shops and supermarkets in the market town of Fakenham just 3 miles away and in picturesque Burnham Market 5 miles to the North.

Or just relax on the cottage terrace to watch the sunset, a treat not to be missed!
