North Norfolk won't disappoint. It really does have something for everyone. There aren't many places where you can go seal watching and crabbing in the morning, peruse boutique shops and cafes all afternoon, and finish the day with fish and chips and an end-of-the-pier show.

It is a 'Designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty', offering seaside towns, picturesque villages with their brick and flint style, bustling towns and the glorious historic city of Norwich.
We love it here!

Walking
There are wonderful walks directly from the front door of The Little Stables, around the village and you can be on the Weavers Way long-distance footpath in minutes, exploring the local countryside or taking a longer stroll to nearby villages. The Sustrans National Cycle Network passes through the village, which also makes it popular as a stop off point for cyclists.

Norfolk is a wonderful county for walkers and, although it is not as flat as most people think, it has a great diversity of landscapes and seascapes to explore. Whether you are serious about walking long distances, or just want a leisurely stroll along the beach or quiet country lanes, North Norfolk has something to suit everyone. For those that want to get off the beaten track there is the Paston Way, Peddars Way, Marriot's Way or Weavers' Way.
Many of the routes take in disused railway lines and old trackways passing beautiful villages, medieval churches, rolling farmland, heath-, fen- and marshland, as well as beaches and waterways. There are lots of places that you can join these routes and walk just a few miles or take the challenge to complete the whole route, or you can hop on a bus or train to start or complete your journey.

A stay in North Norfolk wouldn't be complete without a walk along part of the Norfolk Coast Path. Wherever you join it, you will see a vast array of landscapes and seascapes, and a wealth of birds and wildlife. This area of Norfolk's heritage coast has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and passes through a number of wildlife reserves. It is also the best place to view the 'big skies' that Norfolk is so famous for.

Cycling
North Norfolk caters for all interests and abilities when it comes to cycling and, whether you want to don your Lycra and put in some serious miles, or you just want to enjoy a relaxing bike ride with the kids, there is something for everyone.

The Norfolk Coast Cycleway extends for 92 miles from King's Lynn to Great Yarmouth along designated quiet roads and lanes and you can pick and choose where to join. It uses Sustrans National Cycle Network Route 1 (from Hull to Harwich), which passes through Aldborough, and then regional route 30 to Great Yarmouth. Along Norfolk's heritage coast, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you will see a vast array of landscapes and seascapes, and a wealth of birds and wildlife. It is also the best place to view the 'big skies' that Norfolk is so famous for.

Places to Visit
The Little Stables location makes it the perfect base from which to explore the North Norfolk coast whilst also being within easy reach of the city of Norwich and the smaller towns of Holt, Aylsham, Cromer and Sheringham.

The cliff top seaside resort of Cromer is less than 5 miles away and makes a great day out with its sandy beaches, traditional Pier with shows, coastal walks, RNLI museum, Amazona Zoo and so much more. Don't forget the wonderful fish and chips!

With 52 beaches you are spoilt for choice, my other favourite beaches for you to discover too, and within easy reach, are Sheringham, Overstrand, Mundesley, Sea Palling and Horsey - where there is a resident seal colony - the beaches in this area are wide, sandy and often under-populated even in the summer, very baby / toddler and dog friendly with a part of the beaches kept for dogs only even in high season.

Nearby too, visit the National Trust's Felbrigg Hall, Gardens and Estate, set in 550 acres of woods and parkland it has been on this site since the 12th Century. Blickling Hall Estate, the breath-taking Jacobean mansion and ancient yew hedges sit at the heart of a magnificent garden and historic park in the beautiful Bure meadows, once home to Anne Boleyn (it is said that she appears in her carriage at midnight!)

The delightful Georgian town of Holt with its art & antique galleries, boutiques, independent shopping, restaurants, caf? culture and well known food hall at Bakers & Larners, showcasing the best of Norfolk's food heritage, is another enjoyable day out and beyond on the northern coastline you can discover numerous coastal villages all with their own unique feel.

Further afield but still within easy reach, and some of my favourite places to go, either to chill or explore are;
Holkham Hall, Nature Reserve & Beach
Wells-next-the-sea
Cley Nature Reserve
Blakeney
Burnham Market, one of Norfolks loveliest villages
