홀시미어 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Great little viewing area with a couple of benches and a great view over the Mere.

National Trust-run windmill in the middle of the wide, flat broads landscape. Cafe and toilets for a refreshment stop as well.

There is a car park here, which is managed by the National Trust. There are lovely hiking trails all around through the Broads and to the North Sea coast. You can see several colonies of seals on the coast.

The National Trust maintains a car park right next to the mill. You can also get tickets to the mill there. It's worth a visit, as you'll not only learn details about the mill, but also gain an insight into the miller's life.

Built in 1771, Brograve Mill is shrouded in legend. Also known as the Devil's Mill, some say that Sir Berney Brograve, who built the mill, was chased into the building by the Devil, who was angry that his land had been drained. Sir Brograve sheltered in the mill all night, with the sound of the Devil banging at the door. When he left the next morning he found horses hoof prints all over the door. It's now a Grade-II listed building.

The helpers and conservationists give valuable tips on where the groups can best be seen at the moment and they protect these dear animals and discourage some unreasonable tourists from getting too close to the seals. At the end of October I was able to see a few dozen young seal families. Good close-ups were possible with a 5x zoom lens.

In the summer months you. Will find the common seal and pups PLEASE do not get close if you frighten the mums they will abandon the pups the recommended distance is to keep 10+ meters away

The beach is closed to the public from November to end of March all viewing is done from the 2 viewing areas . Wardens are on duty weekends and all week to guide visitors and protect the seals in bad weather the seals come up into the dunes to give birth
