What to do in Norfolk

@ sndboy.

Open Sky Cycles in Heacham have filled the gap.

Closed in Heacham.

Now moving to Thornham.

(Same location as Erics F&C)

If you’re doing the coastal walk thing then there’s a great little cafe in the dunes in *Old* Hunstanton opposite the RNLI station. https://www.instagram.com/oldtown_beachcafe/. The beaches around there have a crazy tidal range, when the tide is high the beach is long but narrow, when the tide is fully out it’s a challenge to see the sea.

Sitting in the dunes with a soup and watching the kiteboarders is a fairly classic afternoon on that bit of coast.

The only reason to go to Heacham area. The town is God’s Waiting Room and holiday caravan hell as you approach the beach.

Holkham to Wells is a decent walk/ride. Don’t stick to the main path though – do the interesting up and downy bits in the trees and find the rope swings and stuff. Good fish and chips in Wells. The nicer pub/s are at the top of the hill near the village green

Fair enough, although I meant Hunstanton town itself, rather than the beach etc. It probably wasn’t clear.
I find the walk towards Heacham really bleak, but not in a good way like the ‘bleakness’ near Blakeney etc. We all enjoy different things I suppose.
The beach & cliffs between Hunstanton town & the lighthouse is nice.

Probably a bit rose tinted for me as my Grandma had a caravan on the site right by the sea, past Vegas chip shop and left. spent every summer there as a child and loved it so have very happy memories of Sunny Hunny! Went back last summer for a few days and thought the town was looking well with plenty of fresh paint and the scruffy bits tidied up. Hunstanton is ace.
