Things to do in North Norfolk
North Norfolk is one of the country's most beautiful and varied parts, with stunning stretches of sandy beaches, charming seaside towns, historic ruins, and country estates. If you enjoy walking, exploring and shopping, this is one of the best places to visit for a long weekend or midweek escape.
It is easy to spend a whole day in Holt, meandering its charming streets or exploring the ruins of Baconsthorpe Castle. Still, for anyone looking to explore the county a little more, Holt is just a short drive away from top Norfolk visitor attractions, including Blickling Hall, Blakeney Point and Norwich itself.
If you need recommendations on where to go, chat with the Byfords team at reception, and they will be happy to help you and offer the best day out for you and your family. But if you enjoy planning ahead, Norfolk Passport has put together a helpful range of 'Norfolk Top 5' guides to get some inspiration for your Norfolk holiday.
