Staying in a holiday cottage in Norfolk is a wonderful way to experience a new area without compromising on your home comforts. You can cook and eat your favourite meals and enjoy them in front of a good film, or you can take a book and relax on the decking of your private garden in the morning sun. Whether you are visiting with your special someone and are after a secluded romantic break with added amenities such as a Jacuzzi bath, or whether the whole family is in tow and you are looking for a sprawling child-friendly (or even dog-friendly) holiday home with lots to do in the area, there is something for everyone in Norfolk.
If you want to stay close to the seaside and beach when on your holiday, then the town of Sheringham on the northern coastline of Norfolk is an excellent choice. Sheringham has a family-friendly sandy beach and is surrounded by the woods of Upper Sheringham, making it a very pleasant place in which to stay for a self-catering break. The town itself has a promenade along the shoreline that runs by the low cliffs, and features a wide variety of shops, quaint tea rooms and cosy pubs and restaurants. There is also a popular market that runs twice a week.
As well as the beach to enjoy, Sheringham has its own theatre, The Sheringham Little Theatre, that puts on a variety of productions throughout the year, plus the Mo Sheringham Museum which is home to a collection of old lifeboats and makes an interesting visit. The town is ideal for families as there is a lot to keep the kids occupied, and everyone can enjoy the gorgeous sands of Sheringham on a holiday to this part of Norfolk.
Other day trips around the county can be had from Sheringham, and you can use the town as a base in which to explore other villages. A fifteen-minute drive east along the coast will take you to the coastal town of Cromer which is worth a visit for if you wish to see a slightly busier town than Sheringham. You might also wish to go further afield and take a drive to the city of Norwich, about an hour away. Norwich is the capital of Norfolk and features a cathedral, cobbled streets and lots of interesting architecture. For something different, the National Nature reserve of Blakeney is a twenty-minute drive away and is perfect for coastal walks and to soak up the serenity of the countryside.
Self-catering holiday homes in Norfolk come with everything you need to make sure that your cottage feels like a home away from home. Your cottage will become a base as you explore the area, and in Sheringham you will be able to wake up to the sounds of the sea outside your window and enjoy a homecooked meal overlooking the beach. There is a cottage for everyone here and it is the perfect place for a seaside break.
