Our CL site is a very spacious level site situated adjacent to approximately 200 acres of heath and woodland, which is designated a site of special scientific interest. A haven for wildlife offering regular sightings of Kingfisher, Squirrels, Moorhen, Barn Owls, Deer and Night Jars, as well as being an established colony of the Silver Studded Blue butterfly. A lovely area for walking and exploring with the dog.
There are glorious beaches around the Norfolk Coast and interesting harbours at Blakeney and Wells. The seaside town of Cromer is also home to the famous Pavilion Theatre and traditional end of pier show and well known for Cromer Crabs. Holt is a market town which is certainly worth a visit.
The Georgian market town of Aylsham 4 miles away has a variety of retail outlets, a Tescos and a Co Op, weekly auction sales and famous markets. A little further on is Blickling Hall, a beautiful Jacobean National Trust property which has links to the family of Anne Boleyn. For cyclists the 26 mile Marriotts Way stretches from Aylsham to Norwich and follows the routes of two disused railway lines. The Bure Valley Railway is Norfolks longest 15 inch gauge line which runs between Aylsham and Wroxham where boat trips are organised and there is a path/cycle track running alongside the narrow gauge line. Wroxham and the renowned Norfolk Broads are only 10 miles away.
Norwich is an easy 8 mile drive away and boasts some beautiful sites spanning 2000 years of history. The castle museum is one of the finest spectacular Norman buildings in Europe. It was built as a Royal Palace for William the Conqueror. Norwich Cathedral and the Visitor Centre is well worth a visit with the second tallest spire and the largest cloister in England. There is a large collection of high street shops and malls, being in the top 10 shopping destinations in the UK. The Lanes is a medieval area of Norwich made up of alleyways with a selection of quaint independent shops.
