Glamping in Norfolk

Resting in the East Country, bordered to the north-west by the Wash estuary, Norfolk is alive with the stately, medieval personality for which it is renowned. This English county with its stunning medieval churches, interesting museums and stately style, will leave you spellbound with its quirky beauty that invites you to travel through its history. Holidu, inviting you to learn more about the majestic history of this British location, has amazing glamping choices that will warmly welcome you in their beautiful facilities in locations such as Hunstanton, Great Yarmouth, Salthouse and others; all with good tourist attractions nearby that will show you a little more of what England once was.

The types of accommodation available to you in Norfolk are varied, so varied that you could be in the middle of nature or four concrete walls! Options such as luxurious, comfortable glamping sites with all possible facilities can be found in areas such as Hunstanton, or you can also consider something more traditional, small and rural like Norwich where you can be at one with nature. Of course, in any of these offers, you have gardens to enjoy the beauty that only Norfolk can provide. The more exclusive sites have wifi, TV, and the most comfortable kitchen facilities, the perfect place for families, groups, couples and solo travellers.

Norfolk has a number of tourist stops in its various locations, however, there is a predominance of historic sites that show a little of what the past ages were like in this British location. Norwich Cathedral is one of those places that you can't miss. This cathedral is considered one of the most beautiful in the whole territory, it is over 900 years old and has gone through several religions, it was born as Norman and has gone from Christianity to a Protestant church, amazing! But if we talk about culture, it is not only religious monuments, but also a bit of leisure; Cromer Pier is a location that hides a long history between renovations and maintenance, but it is certainly a place where you will see incredible shows ideal for the enjoyment of children and adults. A museum that your kids will want to repeat is Dad's Army Museum, where the curators are dressed as the cast, allowing you to get more involved in the atmosphere! It's a great plan for a great family day out.

Norfolk is a coastal area, but it's really not like you'd imagine any other Caribbean beach location to be, it's very different. The beaches you see in Norfolk can be cold and have various types of family fun activities to do, one of these beaches is Hunstanton Beach, at this location you can do various water activities as well as shopping for delicious food in the various shops that are nearby; but wait... Did you want something more traditional? Then you should head to Wells Next The Sea Beach, where you can catch some crabs and eat some of the old-fashioned snacks that have been discontinued, but they sure are delicious! And if you're lucky, you might even be able to say hello to some seals. Finally, if you want to enjoy a walk while having a quiet conversation with a loved one, Heacham South Beach is the place to be; the scenery is magical, you can kick off your sandals, roll up your trousers and walk along the shore as you feel the water and sand dancing on your feet. Will you buy your ticket? Norfolk awaits you.

Doing an 83-mile walk from Hunstanton to Hopton-on-Sea you'll find you'll be on what's called the Norfolk Coast Path, one of those places you have to visit to get some fresh air and see more of this nation's nature. This walk used to end at Cromer, but now it ends at Sea Palling. Enjoy long strolls, admiring the beautiful scenery as you cover every mile along the way.

This is one of the first must-visit areas of Norfolk, the museum here contains amazing artefacts and memorabilia important to the history of this location, as well as the ancient Queen Boudica or the Snettisham Hoard, an Iron Age treasure trove, among others. Don't forget to visit ancient areas such as Elm Hill and the banks of the River Wensum!

Your concept of fun may be making sandcastles or some fun games with your family on the seashore, however, you'll be delighted to know that Great Yarmouth has an admirable variety of water activities available for your family that will take them out of the everyday. Outside of that, you can also find leisurely moments on the Golden Mile, which is lined with arcades and the wonderful modernist Empire Cinema.

A paradise that in the summer you can appreciate when the skies are clearing and the picturesque village shows its charisma. The Broads is an area full of lakes and rivers that are navigable by people and therefore accessible by boat. One of the most attractive things you will see here are the windmills along the way, these are designed to drain the land and most of them are still working today. This is a great plan to enjoy with your family or group of friends, don't let someone else tell you about the experience!

Amongst Norfolk's attractions is the Oxburgh, where you can see their unchanging Catholic faith. If you check the garden, it doesn't have a methodical layout, but as you go into the woodland you'll see that it's very pleasant to be in. Be sure to keep an eye out for otters. Along the way you'll stumble across the Potting Shed bookshop where you can pick up a book that interests you. You can also head to the Servants' Hall tea room where they serve lunch, drinks, cakes and sandwiches.

One of the famous piers is the Cromer Pier, where renowned comedy, bar and cabaret shows take place. You can also enjoy some of the best crabbing in Norfolk. There you will eat delicious snacks while appreciating the beauty of the sunset. Free wifi is available to the public free of charge. Shows are held on the traditional British Victorian pier for a capacity of 510 people.

When you go to the beach and choose Horsey Beach you'll notice that it's a beach with little breeze, making it ideal for watching the sunset. You'll be able to walk comfortably on its fine golden sands. If you want to swim in its waters, you can do so, but it also has pools of water formed by the rocks. It is very popular with bodyboarders and kitesurfers because of its calm and shallow waters.
