Situated just a 10-minute drive from the bustling port town of Wells-next-the-Sea, Poppy Cottage is a superb place to stay for anyone keen to explore North Norfolk's striking coastline. The garden is beautifully planted with perennials and is fully enclosed.
Great Walsingham, in true 'Normal for Norfolk' style, is actually smaller than Little Walsingham, its more famous neighbour. The two villages are bisected by the River Stiffkey and brave visitors can drive through the picturesque ford which is also a lovely place to walk from. More peaceful than Little Walsingham, it has a beautiful medieval church which retains much of its original art and carvings. There is a craft barn and local cafe serving very delicious lunches and light snacks.
The popular coastal resort of Wells-next-the-Sea with its bustling quay, independent shops, cafes, restaurants and stunning beach is definitely worth a visit, and you can head further afield to enjoy everything else Norfolk has to offer.
