Holidays on the North Norfolk Coast, Self-Catering Cottages and Apartments
The North Norfolk Coast stretches from The Wash in the west to the wild dunes of Winterton in the east, covering 450 square kilometres. The area is remarkably unspoiled, with a pristine stretch of coast backed by primarily agricultural land. Its communities include Mundesley, Cromer, Sheringham, Blakeney, Hunstanton and Wells-next-the-Sea. It is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with vast sand and shingle beaches, salt marshes, creeks, classic resorts and sleepy fishing villages to discover. North Norfolk Coast holiday homes lie near two National Nature Reserves: Blakeney Point, where a four-mile spit of shingle and dunes juts into the sea, and sprawling Winterton Dunes. Family days out on self-catering holidays in North Norfolk include a ride on the region’s steam railway, known as the ‘Poppy Line’, which passes through some of the county’s most idyllic countryside, and boat trips to see the country’s biggest seal colony at Blakeney Point.
