Probably one of the best beaches you could ever visit.

Beautiful traffic-free cycling in Holkham Park - could easily spend a few hours or more pootling round and stopping to enjoy a picnic

I saw a family of seals on the beach!

Impressive country house set in enormous landscaped grounds, with free through-access for cycles. The cricket pitch on the north lawn by the house and lake must have one of the best settings in the country!

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.

Continue past the RNLI station to reach the beach. The sea disappears into the distance across the sands at low tide.

The ruins show just how large this place was in its heyday. The small remaining part now forms a fairly large parish church.

Nice spot to stop for a snack and a rest but plenty to learn too, if you find time to read the information boards.

Binham Priory is a ruined Benedictine priory that was founded in the late 11th Century. The nave of the priory church has become the Church of St. Mary and is still in use today. It's an incredibly peaceful place to take a break in the North Norfolk Coast AONB.

Binham Priory is a masterpiece in terms of monastic ruins and is located in its complete form along the stunning Norfolk Coast. The priory is steeped in rich history, having been founded in 1091 and being home to a Benedictine community of monks for 400 years. Feel free to explore the grounds and get lost in its architecture and history.

Wells-next-the-Sea is famous for its beach, and is considered by many to be the best beach in Norfolk. With a long stretch of unspoilt sandy beach on a gentle slope, Wells beach is a tranquil spot to enjoy the coast. At low tide, the sea can be over 1km away! Beautiful, colourful beach huts on the edge of the sand complete the picture perfect scene.

We entered from the South Gate towards the Obelisk. The main gate was shut and we thought we would have to go around. But the main gain has a pedestrian gate to the side which is unlocked

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.

Binham Priory is among the most complete and impressive monastic ruins in Norfolk. This Benedictine priory was founded in 1091 by Peter des Valoines, a nephew of William the Conqueror. Many of its priors were unscrupulous and the history of the priory is one of almost continuous scandal. The nave of the priory church, with its splendid 13th century west front and fine tiers of Norman arches, is now the parish church, and displays the former rood screen with medieval saints overpainted with Protestant texts. The extensive ruins beyond emphasise the original size of the monastery (https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/binham-priory/)

Well worth a look round, ideal spot for parking for a ride, we left a donation as a thank you.

Good spot for parking (or the memorial hall further down the road). We made a contribution to the Priory as a thank you for using this as a base for a ride.

The town has a unique medieval vibe

Go to the beach to check out the beach huts and look for seals.

Amazing views and great trails.

An 18th century stately home, Holkham Hall is set in beautiful grounds which are free to visit. When the house was built the estate was an empty space but the planting of a multitude of trees has created the woodland park you can see today. The house remains the home of the Earls of Leicester of Holkham but is open to the public on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays. For further details see the website https://www.holkham.co.uk/
