North Norfolk is a fantastic destination for a holiday or mini-break for people of all ages. It’s ripe with history - from the prehistoric people who dug peat and formed the famous broads, to the Romans, the Danes and beyond. After long period of relative slumber, North Norfolk has now definitely entered the 21st century. Sometimes known as ‘Kensington-by-the-sea’ we have a fantastic range of shops, pubs and restaurants to tempt you.
