Perfect for beating the boredom blues on a long summer school holiday!

Hunstanton is a haven of history. In the 1800s the owner of Hunstanton Hall, Henry Styleman Le Strange, built a railway line from Kings Lynn to Hunstanton, opening up the town as a Victorian bathing resort. When Henry died, his son, Hamon, took up the mantle, and with his own passion for architecture, Hamon invested in the development of this beautiful town, affording it the elegance and character that survives today. Hunstanton Hall itself, once the home of one of Norfolk’s most powerful families, is now open to the public. Featuring gothic style battlements, Hunstanton Hall also has a, exceptional orchard, a moat – and, they say, a resident ghost!
