2. Peddar's Way
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 40 reviews
A 46-mile route that starts on Knettishall Heath and follows along flat landscape across Norfolk to the sea, part of which follows an old Roman road through the countryside.

Congratulations to those in charge of the signposts, which were clear and frequent, and much better than those on the Norfolk Coastal Path on which we continued. The walking is pleasant and easy, through very pleasant countryside - although it has no particular highlights or memorable moments. The only downside is the difficulty of finding suitably spaced accommodation, and those places that we did find were not cheap (although all were of reasonable standard). We did both Peddars Way and the Coastal Path in one go, and were extremely lucky with the weather. However, I imagine that doing P.Way in steady rain could be extremely depressing, especially as there is no point at which one could bail out and catch the bus.

I can't speak highly enough regarding the generosity of the Lord Melford's children allowing the public to wander on their farm paths - fantastic place for an excellent walk

Making the most of a mild February by driving up to the coast and taking in the sea air. There's free parking along the roadside and at lowish tide - a great circular walk along the beach and then back up to the cliff tops. See if you can find the ruins of St Edmund chapel and the legend of the howling wolf!
5. Hunstanton Heritage Centre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 72 reviews
Heritage Centre containing much of the history and formation of Hunstanton, Norfolk. Displays show everything from the geology of Hunstanton, it’s multi coloured striped cliffs; the creation of the town, its railway and pier, the ‘le Strange’ family. Also the events that have shaped the town and it’s heritage. We moved from 15 The Green up to the old NatWest Bank and reopened in June 2019. Although closed from March 2020 due to Covid-19, we reopened 15th August with hours Saturday and Sunday, 1.00pm to 5.00pm. Sadly we are reducing this to 2.00pm to 4.00pm from 17th September.

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit here and a massive thank you to the volunteers that make it possible, the people we spoke to (Steve and Shelagh?) were really friendly and informative Lots and I mean lots of fascinating old photos, articles, newspaper clippings and stories, I spent ages reading all about the railway and its demise. Excellent articles about how one man's vision created the holiday resort of Hunstanton. Lots of poignant information about the Hunstanton men who went to war and their lives, especially in this year of 1918. Again well done to all those who have a hand in this brilliant Heritage Centre

We appreciate anybody and everybody who enjoys what we do. The best way to show your appreciation is to come back and visit us again. As with every business we don't get everything right all of the time, but we no longer engage or respond to anything written on TripAdvisor. The thoughts of amateurs who have never owned or run a business and yet like to think themselves experts in what we do are not of interest to us or to be frank anybody else.

This fun fair is a gem. Has something for everyone. My 8 year old son especially love the umbrellas, ghost train, rollercoaster, wavy slide and hook a duck. The prices for the rides are reasonable. Every member of staff were pleasant nothing was to much trouble. Will certainly be coming back.
