Nice spot for a rest

Nice place to take a break

good place for a picnic

The Westgate road crosses the River Stiffkey at Great Walsingham ford. There is a footbridge for pedestrians or cyclists who would rather push.

This is the gatehouse for an old Priory not far from Castle Rising, now part of private drive with no through traffic for bikes.

An amazing youth hostel in the heart of Castle Acre, a lovely place to stay with an amazing host in Alison who at over 90 years old has been a brilliant custodian of this hostel for many years. This is a truly historic place to stay and is right on the Peddars way. Alison is looking to retire sooner rather than later, so if you're interested in running a youth hostel...

The fantastic bailey gate here reminds me of a similar specimen I saw in Belgium at Veurne. Not far from here is the Red Lion Hostel which is run by a 90 year old lady called Alison, wonderful place to stay if you get the chance.

Lovely crossing to the south of Castle Acre if you come in following the Peddars way, there is a view out to the old Monastery.

Excellent cafe/tearoom, for eat in or takeaway on the benches outside the front or opposite on the green. Open 10am-3.30pm every day in spring/summer (kitchen closes 2.30pm), less in winter.

All that remains of West Acre Priory, now an imposing entrance to a private driveway.

Superb former small medieval town, now just a village, but with scenic streets and buildings, a medieval gatehouse, castle and priory (all now ruined), as well as a very nice cafe and pub.

The lane south of the ford is narrow with a very poor surface. It, and the ford, are passable on a road bike but better suited to a gravel bike.

watch out very slippery!! do not cycle on the asphalt but walk along the side. better wet feet than falling. Two of the four have collapsed.

Twisting streets? ✅ Quaint old buildings? ✅ Cafes and gift shops? ✅ Monks wandering around in habits and shops selling statues of the Virgin Mary? ✅ A slightly different take on your usual North Norfolk tourist town.

Visited this cafe. Nice food and people.

If you are coming from South Acre heading up to High Street, you need to pass through the gate to get to the castle ruins. I missed them on my direct route to the Peddar's Way (northbound).

Little Walsingham is the location for the Abbey Grounds and the Anglican Shrine, two of the most popular destinations for visitors. Walsingham sits in the Norfolk countryside, just four miles in from the north Norfolk coast, directly south of Wells-next-the-Sea. Historical records of the village go back to Saxon times when the village was first established on the banks of the River Stiffkey — it is listed in the Domesday Book under the name of Walsingham Parva. Today’s village incorporates both Little and Great Walsingham, together representing a population of about 800 people. This rural village, is surrounded by rich farmland producing corn and sugar beet, wheat and barley, fruit and vegetables — and good grazing for livestock. Many of the farms have been in the same (https://www.visitnorthnorfolk.com/information/product-catch-all/little-walsingham-p1524571) The octagonal building in Common Place is the old Town Pump House. On the stone roof is 'The Beacon'. The pump house was built c1550 and has a brazier on top, which is lit at times of special celebration.

The town has a unique medieval vibe

Great stop for coffee and food

Great trails and interesting views.
