There is nothing wrong with enjoying some lazy days relaxing in our park or on the beach. However, if you have the energy and inclination, North Norfolk and the entire county has so much to discover. From coastal village gems and rural hamlets to farm shops and local restaurants, shopping in Holt and Burnham Market to a day spent exploring the medieval lanes of our majestic city of Norwich, there’s so much to see and do you’ll need to come back and stay with us again!
Why not leave the car at Pinewoods and jump onto a bus to explore the local area? Current bus tickets are only £3 each way, with all buses taking contactless payments. Find out more about travelling by bus and public transport.
