Situated on the A149 coast road at Brancaster Staithe, The Jolly Sailors is a long-established North Norfolk pub, updated by the same owners as the nearby White Horse. It offers great food and ales at good value prices and is very family friendly.

 

Housed in a white painted façade with blue door and windowsills that you can’t miss, the inside of The Jolly Sailors is rustic and warm, with plenty of wood and stone. It is also smart and cared-for, giving it an appealing vibe that elevates it to a higher-than-average-quality traditional eating pub.

 

The bar offers a wide selection of real ales and guest beers. Being the associated pub of the independent, family-owned Brancaster Brewery, The Jolly Sailors has many of this breweries’ ales on tap.

 

If ale isn’t your thing, there is a comprehensive wine list, with choices by the bottle and glass and there’s always a good cup of tea or coffee on the brew.

 

Outside is a large, leafy beer garden for warmer days with an adventure play area that would occupy even the most energetic child.

 

Food-wise, you’ll find home cooked pub food (including a plethora of local seafood) as well as delicious stone baked pizza (an unusual twist) that you can eat in or takeaway. Perfect if you’re holidaying nearby. There’s a Children’s Menu, a Daily Specials board and lighter options for lunch.

 

A sign outside reads “Children, muddy boots and dogs welcome” and this pretty much sums The Jolly Sailors up. Unpretentious and open to all, it has been providing warm hospitality to friends and strangers since the 18th Century. Still true to its traditional roots, it is also firmly 21st Century, focusing on good quality food, drink and service. Among other publications of note, The Jolly Sailors is featured in the Michelin Eating Out Pubs Guide 2011 and The Good Pub Guide 2011. Rightly so.

 

Bar open 7 days. Mon-Sat 12noon – 11pm, Sun 12noon-10.30pm.

Table in The Anchor at Morston. Beer Garden at The Anchor. Bar at The Anchor.

 A former smugglers inn, The Anchor Inn Pub and Restaurant has received something of an update recently, after friends Rowan and Harry took the helm (apologies for the boat-related pun).

 

Good food, good beer and a friendly atmosphere ensure that everyone feels welcome, whether you simply want to sit and warm up with a pint beside the roaring fire in the ‘Old Pub’, or you are out with the family celebrating a special occasion with a meal in the contemporary and stylish new Restaurant.

 

Produce is sourced as locally as possible (very locally in the case of the Morston Mussels, which are available when in season and hail fresh from the Quay just yards away, while meat is supplied by award-winning Rutland Butchers) and Harry likes to experiment with well-loved pub classics, updating them with a modern twist. All dishes offer excellent value for money.

 

As you’d hope with its proximity to the coast, seafood and fish features heavily. However, vegetarians will not be left wanting and Children have a selection of their own dishes to choose from. There are tasty specials that change daily and The Anchor does a fabulous, traditional Sunday lunch.

 

Drinks-wise, The Anchor has an impressive selection of real ales, including a variety of local brews (for example Woodforde’s, Winters and Adnams). There is a well-balanced and competitively priced wine list that perfectly complements the food coming out of the kitchen.

 

Very recently, the Beer Garden has been revamped. Seating 30-40, it is a perfect little suntrap infused with the sea air on summer days.

 

As if the promise of great hospitality, food and beer weren’t enough, The Anchor is conveniently situated on the coast road, and the Coasthopper bus service stops right outside. The Inn is partnered with Temples Seal Trips, which operate from the Quay, taking trips to Blakeney Point to view the seals and migrant birds. Temple’s Seal Trip tickets can be purchased from the bar of The Anchor. That’s a fabulous day out in north Norfolk planned for you, right there. Marvellous.

 

The Anchor is open daily 9am – late.

 

Food is served 12noon-3pm and 6pm-9m (until 8.30pm on Sun).

 

Sunday Lunch is served from 12noon-8pm.

 

The Anchor Inn is Dog friendly.

 

The Anchor is available to hire for private parties, weddings and functions.

If you’re looking for good quality self-catering accommodation in a pretty, peaceful, seaside location, Shoal Cottage offers everything you need for a fabulous break on the North Norfolk Coast.

 

Situated just next door to the noteworthy Cliff Top Café in Overstrand, Shoal Cottage shares the same stunning views, overlooking a lovely sandy beach, the slipway to which is a mere 50m away.

 

Sleeping up to 8 (plus a baby) in 4 bedrooms, Shoal Cottage is cosy and well equipped, with tasteful décor and furnishings throughout.

 

The cottage has all you’ll need to ensure that your stay is as relaxing as possible, including a washing machine, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and microwave in the kitchen and TV and DVD player in the lounge.

Deepdale Backpackers & Camping

 'Mussel' at Deepdale Backpackers Hostel. Deepdale Tipis at sunset. Dogs in a Deepdale Tipi.

Imagine a base from which to explore North Norfolk, situated within an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’, just a stroll from the ocean and where you’ll sleep beneath some of the widest, darkest, most star-spangled skies around. No need to imagine – Deepdale Backpackers & Camping in the pretty little Coastal village of Burnham Deepdale is just such a place.

 

Deepdale 4-star (enjoyEngland) Backpackers Hostel is open all year round, providing award-winning accommodation in the form of ensuite private rooms, quad rooms, dorm rooms and family rooms. The Hostel buildings date back to the 17th Century and are centred around a partially covered old stable courtyard (with BBQ area, naturally). All bedding is provided, along with a fully equipped kitchen for self catering (though there are a number of fantastic food pubs close by, as well as the marvellous Deepdale Café), a laundry and sitting room (with woodburner for chilly winter evenings). A superior Hostel on every front, you can expect a stay here to be that little bit more comfortable than at your usual run-of-the-mill backpacker accommodation. For example, there is underfloor heating throughout, satellite TV in the lounge and Internet access. Perfect.

 

If camping is more your thing, Deepdale Camping is a quiet (there is a strict noise policy) family friendly campsite for tents and small campervans, situated on 5 well drained grass paddocks in the heart of Burnham Deepdale. Open all year, the site has modern, eco-friendly and clean shower, toilet and washing up facilities, as well as access to the laundry at the Hostel. A simple, but beautiful site (perfect for the purist camper), Deepdale Camping does not offer electrical hookups or allow generators. It welcomes well-behaved dogs, but is not suitable for large groups or caravans.

 

If you fancy sleeping outside bricks and mortar, but crave something slightly more exotic than a conventional tent, try Deepdale’s Tipis and Yurts. Offering a gorgeous and unforgettable experience, this is slightly more posh than regular camping (glamping, if you will). The authentic Sioux Native American style Tipis are roomy and romantic, with faux fur covered sleeping mat, a real fire in a cast iron chiminea for heat. Each has their own BBQ among other handy touches. Family friendly (sleeping up to 6), there is a dog-friendly Tipi as well.

 

The authentic Mongolian Yurts feature two double futons with mattresses, a wood burning stove, cushions and throw covers and a BBQ for outside cooking. They sleep a couple, family or small group (up to 8 people) comfortably, and there are 2 Dog friendly Yurts on site.

 

With so much going for it, we really cannot recommend Deepdale Backpacking & Camping highly enough. Our only word of warning – book well in advance. A destination such as this is popular and we’d hate for you to be disappointed…

If a great Café or Coffee Shop mean good coffee, a friendly, relaxing atmosphere and great cake to you (but no greasy fry ups!), then The Corner House Tea & Coffee Lounge in Mundesley is for you.

 

Opened in October 2011, The Corner House café is situated near to the seafront in this lovely Norfolk seaside village (Mundesley has a great beach). Moreover it really serves as the heart of the village for social gatherings and passing the time of day.

 

Styling inside is eclectic with elements of rustic charm, French Café culture and a nod to tearooms of yesteryear with real tablecloths and china tableware, cake stands and pretty china teapots.

 

The Café serves various types of real coffee with authentic French flavouring syrups for a real continental twist. Our personal favourite is The Corner House’s Speciality Lattes (which include Gingerbread and Crème Brulee). You’ll also find a vast choice of Teas (including Whittard flavoured and herbal teas), Hot Chocolate and refreshing cold soft drinks.

 

Sustenance-wise, The Corner House offers tasty and imaginative breakfasts, snacks and light lunches, as well as mouthwatering cakes. Much is locally sourced or produced. We like the ‘Bronte Dunking Biscuits’ – how quintessentially English!

 

If you’re in need of real indulgence, treat yourself to Afternoon Tea or Cream Tea (with clotted cream, naturally).

 

As we’ve already mentioned, The Corner House is friendly and welcoming to all. There are provisions for children and dogs are also welcome. A sign on the dresser reads ‘Enter as strangers, leave as friends’ and this basically sums up The Corner House Tea & Coffee Lounge. (Although perhaps it should read ‘well fed and watered friends’, to be absolutely accurate).

 

Eat in and take away service available.

 

Open Mon – Sat 9.30am-4.30pm, Sunday 10am-3pm.

Baking Shop at Bircham Windmill Norfolk.

Found only a few miles from Sandringham and Hunstanton in North-West Norfolk, Bircham Windmill is considered to be one of the best remaining examples of a British Windmill. It is also the only working windmill in the area to be open to the public. Brave visitors can ascend the five floors to the fan stage and, on windy days, you can see the sails and milling machinery turning.

 

Carefully restored to look just as it did over a Century ago, a visit to Bircham Windmill offers the rare opportunity to experience the history and character of a Norfolk Corn Mill – a phenomenon that was once prolific in this region.

 

On site is also the original bakery and a baking shop, from which the inimitable smell of freshly baked bread will welcome you if you’re lucky enough to visit on a baking day. The baking shop sells various flours, fresh bread, scones and cakes as well as baking paraphernalia, recipe books and much more. ‘Children’s Baking Corner’ enables children to bake some bread to take home for tea (£2 per child).

 

Also for Children (and grown-up animal lovers of course!) are the adorable Donkeys, sheep, pygmy goats, chickens and guinea pigs. With the opportunity to meet the animals and an Under 7’s play area, you can relax in the Mill garden while your kids play.

 

Bircham Windmill also has an on-site Tea Rooms (serving home made cakes, scones and light lunches along with their famous Clotted Cream Teas, and completely revamped for the 2012 season), an Art Gallery (with a different artist each month), Gift Shop, Family Cycle Hire Centre and trails and walks around the Mill for cyclists and walkers.

 

With so much to do and enjoy, most of which is free and can be accessed separately to the Mill itself, Bircham Windmill is a novel day out in Norfolk that will appeal to all members of the family.

 

FREE ENTRY into Tea Rooms, Bakery & Gift Shop.
Entry to Windmill: Adults £4.50 (£1.50 garden only), Retired £3.75 (£1.25 garden only), Children 4-15 yrs £3 (£1 garden only). Season tickets are available and during school holidays there is a free weekly return deal where visitors pay once and then return as often as they like for the remainder of the week.

 

Open daily from April 1st 2012 – September 30th 2012 10am-5pm.

 

Parking is FREE.

 

Dogs are welcome on leads.

Inside Pretty Corner Cafe. Outside Pretty Corner Cafe.

As the name implies, Pretty Corner, found en route to Sheringham in Norfolk, has been a renowned beauty spot for decades.

 

Pretty Corner Café and Tea Gardens first opened in 1926 in a wooden pavilion that had no running water or electricity. The owners of the time became widely known for their homemade chocolates and sweets, which won a number of awards. While it has evolved, it is still as popular today as it was back then, with walkers, cyclists and holidaymakers enjoying the peaceful woodland setting.

 

Inside, the modest flint and brick Café is airy and homely with pictures by local talent decorating the walls, flowers on every table and gently padded chairs. There is a wood burning stove for cooler days and an outside patio and garden, flanked by many shrubs and flowering plants, for warm weather.

 

Pretty Corner Café and Tea Gardens pride themselves in using fresh, locally sourced ingredients throughout their menu, supporting local producers as well as growing their own.

 

The menu includes lunchtime favourites such as Panninis, Jacket Potatoes, Salads and Sandwiches, as well as homemade daily specials. There is a mouthwatering selection of homemade cakes, scones and desserts.

 

As you expect from a self-respecting Tea Gardens, Pretty Corner Café and Tea Gardens offers a selection of speciality teas (as well as coffee and soft drinks) – perfect with a homemade scone in a Pretty Corner Cream Tea.

 

Coffee fans will appreciate the Espresso machine (new for the 2012 season), which means you can now enjoy really good Fair Trade Cappuccino and Cafe Latte coffees.

 

Vegetarians and children are well catered for, and there are gluten-free options on the menu.

Once a humble Donkey shed, Cliff Top Café in Overstrand has come a long way since it was originally established in 1925. Owner Lorraine has been in charge for the past 5 years and most notably the Cliff Top Café recently (Nov 2011) placed 6th in The Times ’30 Best Places For Tea’ list. Need we say more?

 

Well… along with the Tea, Cream Teas and vast range of fruit teas, the Cliff Top Café offers good value for money, wholesome, home cooked food. Cooked to order, it is not fast food. But it is well worth any wait.

 

Inviting and spotlessly clean (they hold 5 stars for Hygiene), the inside bears all the hallmarks of a traditional tearooms or café. The unpretentious vibe will appeal to all generations from all walks of life. Families with children are welcome, as are dogs. The Menu is full of time-honoured classics, from the sandwich fillings to the presence of Horlicks, Ovaltine and Bovril. Fantastic after a bracing coastal stroll on a chilly day.

 

Until Noon, you’ll get big breakfasts (including a vegetarian breakfast). From noon onwards, enjoy delicious home-cooked lunches such as Steak Pie, Fish Pie, Lamb Shanks or Cottage Pie (to name but a few). There are also also 3 vegetarian options on the menu each day. Throughout the day there are cakes, toasted teacakes, soup and salads.

 

Last but not least, the location of this café (quite literally on Overstrand’s cliff tops) makes it a fantastic place to visit. Perfectly placed to rest and refresh after a walk along the beach from Cromer, sit outside for stunning views out to sea. Not a bad side to go with your tea and cake…

The White Horse, Brancaster Staithe.

A 3-star, 2 AA Rosette Inn on the A149 coast road in Brancaster Staithe, The White Horse is undoubtedly one of the best places to dine or stay in the region.

 

It is located on an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), with some of the most stunning panoramic views across tidal marshes and sandy beaches that you’ll see anywhere in North Norfolk. Sunsets seen from The White Horse terrace (and rises as well if you’re an early bird) are truly dazzling.

 

A coastal pub built in 1934, The White Horse has been refurbished and tastefully styled with chic, modern décor that perfectly complements its seashore setting. Plenty of natural materials and nautical blues, greys and whites create a calm, welcoming environment.

 

The light, airy conservatory restaurant overlooks the Norfolk Coastal Path and the tidal marsh beyond to Scolt Head Island, offering sweeping views. If you want to dine al fresco, the restaurant leads to a sun deck terrace or there is a landscaped sunken garden.

 

Dining is an unhurried experience, intended to be savored. A range of tantalizing menus bursting with fresh, local cuisine (including oodles of seafood) offers something for all tastes (children and vegetarians are well served – see the KIDS MENU). When in season you’ll find Oysters and Asparagus farmed from Brancaster Staithe itself alongside the likes of Cromer Crab, Button Mushroom and Binham Blue Cheese Crepes and Pan roast Gressingham corn fed Chicken Breast.

 

The dessert selection is equally mouthwatering and there is an extensive wine list to accompany the great food.

 

The lunch menu consists of classic pub dishes such as Fish and Chips, Ploughman’s and salad as well as some rather fabulous Tapas options.

 

Dining times in the restaurant (booking advised) 12Noon-2pm, 6.30-9pm.

Winner of the EDP Tourism in Norfolk Award 2011 for Best Hotel (second year running!).

 

Just right for total escapism, The AA 4* Blakeney Hotel is situated beside the quay with outstanding views across the estuary to Blakeney Point (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). A traditional, family hotel that prioritises quality and value for money, it is a good base for exploring the wider area (ideal if you like walking, bird watching or want to visit the nearby towns of Holt, Norwich or Aylsham), but equally perfect if all you want to do is kick back, read a paper and gaze out dreamily over the salt marshes.

 

The Blakeney Hotel boasts over sixty rooms, all furnished to a high standard and some with balconies or terraces offering wonderful views over the estuary and salt marshes. Extra beds or cots for children can be provided and the ground floor rooms are ideal for holidaying dogs.

 

If you don’t feel like going too far, there is plenty to occupy and delight you within the hotel itself. The Hotel has a heated indoor swimming pool with adjacent Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and air-conditioned mini gym.  There is a games room for table tennis, pool and darts and a billiard room with a full-sized table for billiards or snooker. Use of all the leisure facilities is free for residents.

 

For eating and drinking, the Hotel has two lounges, an AA Rosette restaurant and a bar, offering hearty English breakfasts, light lunches and seasonal À la Carte choices.

 

Picnic hampers can be made up for residents.

 

Great for enjoying the whole North Norfolk area, or a getaway destination in itself, The Blakeney Hotel is worth discovering whether you’re planning a romantic break for two, a half-term getaway with the kids or a weekend of walking and exploring with just you and the dog!

Room at The Old Coach House.

Despite its name, this former coaching inn on the North Norfolk coast is not all it seems… Multifaceted, this particular hostelry combines a charming country pub with a rather swish Italian restaurant and comfortable country inn accommodation.

 

The rooms have been simply and tastefully styled to enhance the natural charm of the building with reassuring warmth – perfect after a day of sightseeing, walking, cycling or splashing in the sea.

 

All rooms have double beds, some of which can be converted to offer twin accommodation, and a Family Room has a double bed with a set of bunks in an attached annex. A cot is available for very young guests.

 

In keeping with the welcoming allure of The Old Coach House (everyone seems welcome, and refreshingly, everyone seems accommodated), dogs are also welcome at a small supplement of £10 each.

 

To set you up for the day ahead, choose the hearty English breakfast or help yourself to the Breakfast Buffet.

 

For lunch or your evening meal, you don’t have to venture far either – The Old Coach House has two bars complete with sink-into-sofas and local ales and a bright, open restaurant offering homemade pies, pizza and pasta dishes.

 

Tariffs from £80 per night, including a full English breakfast.

 

Dogs are welcome – £10 each.

 

Extra beds for children can be provided at a cost of £25 per night. There is no charge for children in cots.

The bar at The White Horse is well stocked with real ale on tap from the associated Brancaster Brewery (view tasting notes and a Brief History of the Brancaster Brewery), along with other local brews including Woodfordes Wherry, Adnams Bitter and changing guest ales.

 

A well-chosen wine list offers choices from around the world both by the bottle or the glass.

 

There are plenty of non-alcoholic choices too, including a variety of teas and coffee. We like the wonderfully refreshing ‘Norfolk Orchards’ assortment, with locally produced Cox apple juice and non-alcoholic Pippin cocktail (local cider also featured, which is alcoholic. As cider should be).

 

For the peckish, a bar menu features delicious local, seasonal fare all day long.

 

Dining is an unhurried experience, intended to be savored. Food can be eaten at the bar or, if you want to dine al fresco, there is the landscaped sunken garden.

 

Breakfast menu available 9-11am.

Fireplace inside The Black Lion.

Under new management since June 2011, The Black Lion Hotel in Walsingham has several hundred years experience of offering hospitality fit for a King (the northern end of The Black Lion was built to accommodate King Edward III, who made regular pilgrimages to Walsingham).

 

Nowadays, The Black Lion Hotel has 7 smartly styled en-suite bedrooms and a restaurant that is elegant without being unnecessary. Being a former hostelry, the atmosphere is one of a dining pub with character that has been subtly modernised, where appropriate, to suit most tastes.

 

Contrary to its ancient origins, The Black Lion Restaurant is nothing but modern with its food and drink selection. Chef Greg Haye’s daily-changing menu features fresh, seasonal goodies sourced from local farmers, fishermen and producers.

 

As well as a hearty all-day breakfast, and tasty A la Carte menu, you’ll also find all-day Tapas (we love this little cosmopolitan twist in such a traditional and historic setting!). Marvelously, the entire menu is very reasonably priced, with a 4 course set price from the A la Carte menu totaling £19.50 and Tapas options between £1 and £2.50 a dish.

 

Standout choices (when available) are the Crispy Squid, Breaded Cheese & Honey and Spicy Pork Belly Tapas.

 

Drinks-wise, The Black Lion has a well-stocked bar that serves good coffee, hot chocolate and herbal teas as well as a wide range of alcoholic tipples. Hot Chocolate Fondant is a specialty, and well worth the 15 minute wait it takes to prepare it.

 

For sweet-tooths and nibbles, The Black Lion kitchen makes its own cakes and buns, potato and parsnip crisps, pork scratchings and covered nuts.

 

Food is available all day on Sundays, when a regularly changing roast is also on offer within a 2-course, 3-course or 4-course option (with coffee and handmade chocolates).

 

The Black Lion holds regular events, including a quiz on Sunday nights (more details below).

 

The Black Lion Hotel is dog friendly.

 

Hotel/Bar/Restaurant open from 8am-1am 7 days a week.

 

Lunch served 12noon-3pm, Dinner served 6pm-10.30pm.

 Every Wednesday Night - Steak & a Pint £10

Room One at Briarfields Hotel, Titchwell.

Conveniently located on the A149 coast road in the pretty village of Titchwell, and with prestigious 3-Star Silver (Visit Britain) status, Briarfields Hotel is a warm and welcoming place to stay in North Norfolk. Made up of a collection of sympathetically converted barns and farm buildings, it offers a relaxed and cosy atmosphere that is perfect for helping you settle in to holiday mode, or to escape for a short getaway.

 

All rooms are en-suite and the homely traditional decor is brought bang up to date with flat screen televisions, luxurious four-poster beds and heated towel rails, offering you the best of both worlds. Family-friendly (check out the impressive play area to the rear), there are 4 family rooms that comprise a second bedroom adjacent to the main bedroom – perfect for keeping an eye on the little ones.

 

The hotel has a wonderful restaurant that serves the finest locally sourced produce at lunchtimes and dinner time and there is a large bar and lounge area if you fancy kicking back and relaxing with a newspaper and a drink.

 

For the more adventurous, Briarfields makes the perfect base for exploring the delights of the surrounding area, including Titchwell Marsh Nature Reserve (which the hotel overlooks).

 

Aside from all this, one of the biggest surprises about Briarfields is that it is so reasonably priced. In keeping with their aim to remain accessible to all, room rates start at £125 for a double room, bed and breakfast in high season and £100 in low season. Dogs are welcome at a nominal charge of £8 per night and a discount can be arranged for groups of 10 or more.

Private terrace for one of the rooms at The White Horse.

A 3-star, 2 AA Rosette Inn on the A149 coast road in Brancaster Staithe, The White Horse is undoubtedly one of the best places to stay or dine in the region (corroborated by its inclusion in Alistair Sawday’s Special Places Pubs & Inns of England & Wales 2011).

 

It is located on an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), with some of the most stunning panoramic views across tidal marshes and sandy beaches that you’ll see anywhere in North Norfolk. Sunsets seen from The White Horse terrace (and rises as well if you’re an early bird) are truly dazzling.

 

A coastal pub built in 1934, The White Horse has been refurbished and tastefully styled with chic, modern décor that perfectly complements its seashore setting. Plenty of natural materials and nautical blues, greys and whites create a calm, welcoming environment.

 

The White Horse has 15 large en-suite rooms that are uncluttered and contemporary, promoting total relaxation. They are beautifully decorated to reflect the colours of the surrounding seashore environment, with hues of blue, green, lavender and sand.

 

There are 7 rooms in the main building, including the split level ‘Room At The Top’, which has its own viewing terrace and telescope.

 

There are 8 rooms on the ground floor, all built into the natural contours of the land, with grass and sedum roofing that blends with the neighbouring marshland. Each has its own outside terrace. One of these has disable access and five are designated ‘Family Rooms’. Dogs are welcome in these rooms.

 

All rooms feature digital flat-screen TVs and WI-FI.

 

For dining, the light, airy conservatory restaurant overlooks the Norfolk Coastal Path and the tidal marsh beyond to Scolt Head Island, offering sweeping views. If you want to dine al fresco, the restaurant leads to a sun deck terrace or there is a gorgeously groomed sunken garden.

 

As if sleeping yards from the sea were not soothing enough, The White Horse can arrange for you to have a relaxing holistic therapy treatment in the comfort and privacy of your room. Fabulous.

 

Tariffs from around £50 per person, per night, including breakfast. Please visit The White Horse’s own website for further details about special offers and breaks.

Room in The Lifeboat.

Now part of Marco Pierre Whites Wheeler’s family, the charming Lifeboat Inn at Thornham is a real North Norfolk treasure. Its coastal location provides breathtaking views towards Thornham beach and it is a romantic, rustic and atmospheric escape.

 

From the cosy smugglers bar lit by hanging oil lanterns to the large fireplace when you first walk in (you’ll have to fight for space in front of it during the winter – often with a few dogs!), the ambience remains faithful to traditional inn-keeping values (after all, The Lifeboat has been receiving guests since the 16th century). Fantastic all year round because its situation is perfect for exploring the North Norfolk coast, as well as taking in golf at nearby Hunstanton, The Lifeboat comes into its own throughout the winter months when it is a snug and inviting bolthole.

 

All 13 rooms are en-suite, and some offer stunning views over the marshes and Thornham Harbour to the sea.

 

For dining, there is a lovely walled patio garden and bright conservatory, as well as a more formal dining room. Year-round, the reasonably priced bar menu features local delights and daily specials. Children’s meals are available and there are options for vegetarians.

 

The Lifeboat bar is popular and often bustling into the evening – a perfect retreat to recover from walks along the beach or from exploring the area.

 

Tariffs start at £80 for a single room and £120 for a double/twin room, including a full English breakfast. See all 2012 Tariff information.

 

Dogs are welcome (£8 per dog) and extra beds or cots can be provided for Children.

 

Free Wi-Fi available throughout.

 

Plenty of parking is available.

Ocean views from The Funky Mackerel Cafe.

Imagine a funky surf-shack style café that wouldn’t be out of place on any beach from Newquay to Maui, and you’ll get an instant flavour of The Funky Mackerel Café. Except this relaxed shore-side family-run business is located on Sheringham beach in North Norfolk.

 

Dog- and Family Friendly (there is a Café dog – ‘Sparkle’), The Funky Mackerel Café prides itself on offering great food but with an all-inviting, non-pretentious atmosphere.

 

The Mackerel Menu is comprehensive and uncomplicated with great Fair Trade coffee, toasted sandwiches, pasties and sausage rolls. As you’d expect from a Café that overlooks the ocean, there is often seafood on the menu as well, for example Peppered Mackerel, Sardines on Ciabatta and Crayfish. Most noteworthy are their Bacon Sandwiches, said to be the best in town (and perfect after a morning on the beach, no matter what the season).

 

For those with a sweet tooth, The Funky Mackerel is also renowned for their delicious homemade Flapjacks. Available in a rainbow of flavours, including the likes of Cherry & Ginger, Bombay Mix, Banana, Fig and Cherry & Toasted Coconut, these tasty treats will leave you with plenty of energy to enjoy the delights of Sheringham and the surrounding area.

 

Unashamedly quirky, The Funky Mackerel has a delightfully unique ‘Rummage Room’, an Aladdin’s Cave of second hand clothing and accessories, where browsing is an art form and you’re likely to find the most amazing bits and bobs if you well… rummage long enough.

Outside view of The Old Coach House.

Despite its name, this former Coaching Inn on the North Norfolk Coast is not all it seems… Sure, the frontage looks charming and traditional, and the front bar is also fairly true to its origins as a rustic coastal hostelry, but at the back The Old Coach House is secretly a rather swish Italian restaurant.

 

Rather unique to the locale, The Old Coach House could be described as ‘a country pub with a Mediterranean style’. Two bars at the front tick all the boxes for a lovely Norfolk pub (you’ll usually find a few friendly locals propping up the fixtures), complete with sink-into-sofas and local ales.

 

Out back, a bright, open restaurant decorated in cheerful colours and adorned with contemporary art offers homemade pies, pizza and pasta dishes. See the MAIN MENU.

 

See the DESSERT MENU and the WINE LIST.

 

Perhaps one of the nicest aspects of dining at The Old Coach House is its suitability for families. Their children’s menu will tempt even the fussiest toddler, while an outside play area and mini train will occupy them before the meal arrives (and maybe wear them out a bit – always worth a try!).

 

Pizzas are also available to take away. See the TAKEAWAY MENU.

Outside image of The Black Lion Hotel.

Under new management since June 2011, The Black Lion Hotel in Walsingham is one of the most fascinating places you could stay, not only in Norfolk, but also in the entire Country.

 

A hostelry to medieval pilgrims since the 1300s, and one of the oldest houses in Walsingham, The Black Lion is steeped in history, and, subsequently has an alluring atmosphere to match.

 

Nowadays, The Black Lion Hotel has 7 smartly styled en-suite bedrooms, including one with a 4-Poster Super King bed. All the rooms are unique in their layout and all possess different striking features. Some feature handmade beds, while 3 are walled with the original medieval stone walls, which are wonderfully exposed. Some offer views out onto the Market Place, once a weekly market held by Franciscan Friars from the nearby Priory.

 

Throughout the hotel you will encounter wonderful architectural details that bear out the hotel’s rich and long history; timber framing and delightful stone detailing is abound.

 

The northern end of The Black Lion was built to accommodate King Edward III (1327-1377), who made regular pilgrimages to Walsingham. The hotel is actually named after the coat of arms of his wife, Queen Phillipa of Hainault, which was a black lion.

 

As well as offering a totally matchless experience in terms of accommodation, The Black Lion has a rather formidable restaurant offering all day breakfast, Tapas and A la Carte.

 

The Black Lion holds regular events, including a quiz on Sunday nights.

 

Room rates range from £75 a night for a twin or double room to £120 for the 4 Poster Super king room.

With an AA 4-star rating, The White Horse at Overstrand offers a unique opportunity to combine the escapism of a traditional seaside holiday with the quality and comfort you’d expect from a luxury hotel.

 

Situated in Overstrand, a pretty coastal village, which was so popular with the Victorian rich that it became known as ‘Millionaires Village’, The White Horse has seven superb en-suite bedrooms. All are spacious and individually styled to a high standard, with the added benefit of that warm cosy feeling that you get from feeling at home away from home. Wake in the morning to a three course home-cooked breakfast before starting your day exploring the beauty of North Norfolk.

 

With the philosophy that ‘eating out should always be special’ and a growing reputation for quality cuisine, The White Horse is well equipped to provide a relaxed, enjoyable experience for diners. Take pleasure in a pre-dinner drink or unwind at the end of a day of sightseeing in the bar and lounge area, or enjoy a romantic meal for two in the stylish restaurant.

Inside The Owl Tearooms. Hot, buttered crumpets at The Owl.

Dating back to Victorian times (making it one of Norfolk’s oldest tearooms), and presently a family run business for some 25 years, The Owl Tea Rooms in the centre of Holt is a delightful place to sample scrumptious homemade food all day long. Traditional in feel, The Owl resembles a large country cottage kitchen, with wooden booths and tables, earthenware condiment pots and fresh flowers on each table. There is a warm touch of nostalgia throughout.

 

Values too are traditional in that all food is freshly made from local ingredients, service is attentive and friendly and everyone is most welcome.

 

The menu, however, may surprise you. It is forward-looking with one shared theme: deliciousness. On the Specials board, classic British indulgences such as Local Norfolk Lamb Hotpot or The Owl Special Steak & Kidney Pie can be found alongside Moroccan Chicken Tagine with Fruit Infused Cous Cous and Roasted Butternut Squash stuffed with Cranberries and Chestnut Puree.

 

Lunch options include a number of lighter dishes – jacket potatoes, sandwiches and hot buttered crumpets. For the sweet tooth or to complement a tea or coffee, The Owl does a positively dangerous line in Cream Teas and homemade cakes.

 

There are options for all tastes and persuasions, including vegetarians, diabetics and those avoiding gluten. There is also a Children’s Menu.

 

For warmer days, The Owl boasts a hidden walled tea garden, tucked behind the Tea Rooms. A sheltered, tranquil spot to enjoy your yummy goodies, this really is an experience worth savouring on sunny days. Dogs are allowed in the garden and there is wheelchair access.

 

After you’ve enjoyed your meal or cream tea, the adjacent bakery and shop selling all manor of freshly baked bread and scrumptious cakes will enable you to take a little taste of The Owl away with you. Our personal favourite temptation – the fat, homemade donuts just bursting with jam. There should be a law against something so naughty.

 

As well as food, The Owl shop stocks a great range of wooden toys (perfect gifts and stocking fillers) and handmade greeting cards. You can also hire cake moulds.

 

Open Mon-Sat 8.30am-5pm (last orders 4.30pm) including Bank Holiday Mondays.

Lunch is served 11.45-2.15pm.

The White House is located in the pretty coastal village of Burnham Overy Town. Burnham Overy lies only 1 mile from North-Norfolk-retreat-for-the-rich-and-famous, Burnham Market, 2 miles from beautiful Holkham and 1 mile from Burnham Thorpe, birthplace of Lord Nelson.

 

A stunning and spacious 250-year-old house, with original features, including exposed beams throughout, you couldn’t ask for a better base for your break in North Norfolk. Sleeping up to 8 people, and welcoming dogs, it is perfect for both smaller groups and family getaways.

 

The ground floor features an open kitchen/dining room, two sitting rooms – one with a wood burner, one with a large LCD TV and DVD player, books and games (perfect if you’re travelling with children – one room for them, one for you!), a twin bedroom, a shower room and a small utility room.

 

The second floor has a further three bedrooms: two double (one en-suite with shower over bath) and a twin room and a family bathroom. All of the bedrooms have plenty of storage space with drawers, shelves and wardrobes.

 

Tastefully furnished throughout, The White House offers a really nice home-from-home stay in a superb location on the North Norfolk Coast. Large enough to accommodate families with ease, we can imagine it bustling with laughter after a day at the beach or beside the wood burner on chilly winter evenings. We’ve no doubt at all that memories of family holidays taken here would last for a lifetime.

 

Outside, there is off-road parking for 2-3 cars and a pretty walled courtyard garden.

4 star Guest Accommodation.Panoramic view from the 'Four-Poster' room.Breakfast Award.

As the name suggests, this fabulous 4-star B&B on the North Norfolk Coast is housed within the former Custom House. Built in 1560, it was from here that the authorities attempted to rein in the activities of smugglers and pirates (most of whom were busy frequenting The Royal Standard Inn, which is now a Chandlery and just next door!).

 

As if that weren’t historically important enough in itself, the garden boasts one of the only remaining original spring wells that gave Wells (later Wells-next-the-Sea) its name.

 

The Old Custom House has three lovely en-suite rooms, all unique and furnished to an exceptional standard. Each has digital TV, WI-FI, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryer and plenty of books and magazines to make you feel at home.

 

Additionally, the lavish ‘Four-poster’ Room has a King-sized four-poster bed and fantastic views out onto the quay and beyond.

 

The ‘Captain’s Quarters’ (once the Customs Office) is a King-sized double with its own spacious private bathroom. East- and West-facing windows offer lovely views over the creeks and marshes towards the sunrise (if you’re up early enough!) and along cobblestone cottages with pantile roofs, respectively.

 

The ‘Queen’s Warehouse’ twin room is conveniently located on the ground floor and has its own access straight to the front yard. This makes it ideal for wheelchair users. More a ‘suite’ than a ‘regular’ room, The Queen’s Warehouse also features a dining area with fridge, sink and microwave and a bathroom with a large shower cubicle. Pets with well-behaved owners are also welcome in this room.

 

Off-road parking is available.

 

As if the history, location (as beside the sea as you can get without waking with wet feet) and views aren’t enough to tempt you into visiting The Old Custom House, they also have the coveted Breakfast Award (enjoyEngland.com), a testament to the tremendous breakfasts, cooked to order from local produce. It really is a very, very special B&B.

 

Tariffs: from £70 weeknights/£90 weekends (Bed & Breakfast, based on two people sharing). All major cards accepted.
