The East Anglia / Norfolk region
Norfolk is a county brimming with stunning scenery, a wonderful coastline, stately homes and gardens, irresistible shopping and picturesque villages with welcoming country pubs. North Norfolk boasts miles of beautiful sandy beaches with seaside towns like Cromer and Sheringham, and market towns such as Aylsham and Holt.
The popular Norfolk Broads is a network of inland waterways consisting of large expanses of water, long meandering rivers and smaller lakes and are unique throughout Britain. It is the perfect place to relax and unwind and offers some spectacular wildlife.
Wroxham / Barton Turf area
In the heart of the Norfolk Broads, Barton Turf is situated on the River Ant, a tributary of the Bure, and its narrow winding channel leads to Barton Broad. Barton Broad is the second largest broad and it is said to be where Nelson learnt to sail. It is ideally situated to explore the beautiful North Norfolk coast with its sandy beaches, the tranquil Norfolk Broads rich in wildlife and the cathedral city of Norwich, just 14 miles away. For dining out there are a number of nearby restaurants and local pubs offering a good and very reasonably priced menu.
The unspoilt Broadland village of Barton Turf boasts a church containing a famous painted screen. The Staithe at Sutton is a picturesque location where boats can be hired and fishing is permissible with a rod licence. The nearby village of Hickling is on the edge of Hickling Broad which is the largest of the Norfolk Broads and is popular for boating and windsurfing. A regatta normally takes place during the holiday summer months. It is also one of the homes of the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, the area being a haven for ornithologists, nature lovers and walkers with beautiful countryside all around. Cyclists will love the quiet lanes, with a number of places offering cycle hire. Lovely sandy beaches can be found at Waxham and Sea Palling, which is just three miles away, and there is easy access to the whole of Norfolk's rich and diverse coastline. The Broads Museum is located in the small market town of Stalham just 5 minutes away, where the nearest supermarket can also be found. The centre of the Broads at Wroxham is just four miles away where you will find regular cruises around the beautiful Norfolk Broads and at Wroxham Barns local craftspeople working. At Aylsham you will find the Bure Valley Railway with its miniature steam and diesel trains linking the town to Wroxham. The picturesque Georgian market town of Holt, coastal village of Cley with its National Nature Reserve, Blakeney Point's seal colony and the traditional seaside resort towns of Cromer, Sheringham and Wells are all within easy reach by car. Golf courses can be found at Sheringham and Royal Cromer.
