According to recent research by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA), people in East Anglia are drinking more real ale than ever before. As it should be, really, given that here in Norfolk we produce excellent malting barley that is subsequently used across the UK and beyond to produce fantastic beers, lagers and ales.
One such malting barley farm is Branthill Farm near Wells-next-the-Sea, which extends to over 1000 acres on the Holkham Estate. Malting barley has been grown in the region since Shakespearian times, with the coastal microclimate and light, sandy soil over chalk combining to make it one of the best places on Earth to grow the crop.
The concept seen in wine-producing countries of promoting the produce to the public at source inspired tenant Farmer Teddy Maufe to open The Real Ale Shop on-site at Branthill Farm. Now a must-visit destination for any real-ale fan in the area, The Real Ale Shop has also gone on to win several prestigious awards, including ‘Off Licence News Independent Beer Retailer of the Year 2009’ and ‘CAMRA Bottle Online Sales Awards 2008’.
The Real Ale Shop stocks bottle conditioned real ales from a host of Norfolk breweries including the Fox Brewery, Woodforde’s, the Iceni Brewery, the Humpty Dumpty Brewery and Tipple’s Brewery. Teddy believes that one advantage of such an arrangement is total traceability, an important feature with today’s savvy consumers. Apparently, one of the brewers even quotes the field grid reference on their bottle label. Presumably, using local floor maltings is also fairly ‘green’, cutting down on the mileage required in transportation and, therefore, boasting a lesser ‘Carbon Footprint’. Environmentally friendly, locally produced and flavoursome. Fabulous.
Now stocking some 50+ naturally bottle conditioned ales onsite, The Real Ale Shop has extended to the web, offering online selection and ordering. Ideal if you’re not a native, although if you can, we’d highly recommend you take the signposted detour on the Fakenham-Wells road to visit this unique off-licence in person.
Open Tues-Sat 10am-6pm (Winter 10am-4pm).
Sun 12Noon-4pm.
Closed Mondays (except Bank Holidays & high season).

The Neptune Restaurant With Rooms.
85 Old Hunstanton Road, Old Hunstanton, Norfolk, PE36 6HZ.
Tel: 01485 532122.
The Neptune Restaurant with Rooms at Old Hunstanton is charming on so many levels that it would be a shame to miss out on such a treasure.
The site of ‘The Rifleman’ in the 1780’s when it was used as a store for seized contraband, it has been known as The Neptune since the 19th century. Now under the careful ownership of Kevin and Jacki Mangoelles, the Inn and Restaurant has been transformed to evoke images of the New England coast.
With nautical themes throughout, brown mellow tones and white clapboard walls, The Neptune could easily be fragranced by either home-baked apple pie or salty sea air. The Lloyd Loom sofas and chairs add to the relaxed ambience of the bar, lounge and restaurant.
True to its origin as a coaching inn, The Neptune offers elegant accommodation in 7 fabulous en-suite bedrooms, all furnished with the clean lines of white, hand made New England furniture. A 4-Star Inn (EnjoyEngland.com), you are assured a high level of hospitality at this charming bed and breakfast, which is perfectly located for easy access to the North Norfolk coast, Sandringham, the Burnhams and the wider County.
Under Head Chef Kevin, the classic-modern food at The Neptune is lovingly created from fresh local produce such as Thornham Oysters and Plums from Orchard Farm. Already a prestigious 3 AA Rosette restaurant, The Neptune has also recently been awarded a Michelin Star.
The Neptune Restaurant is open Tues-Sun (Closed Mon).

Transformed by the owners of the warm and comfortable Briarfields Hotel, The Lodge is a delightful pub with a restaurant and rooms, of a quality usually only found at a stylish, designer inner-City hotel. A Dower House in the early 1800’s and The Lodge Hotel from 1912, the listed building offers a lovely mix of the old and the new, with wooden floors and real ales sitting happily alongside new world wines and the latest technology.
Situated in the attractive costal village of Old Hunstanton, The Lodge is only 400 hundred yards from quiet sandy beaches, and just along the road from some of Norfolk’s best golf courses, including Old Hunstanton and the Royal and West Norfolk at Brancaster.
The Lodge has fifteen freshly-refurbished en-suite rooms, along with two suites on the top floor.

www.maypolehotels.com/lifeboatinn
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, where the Brabazon Trophy was held in 2003. The Lifeboat comes into its own throughout the winter months when it is an inviting and snug bolthole.
For dining, there is a lovely walled patio garden and bright conservatory, the roof of which is covered by an ancient vine that apparently thrives on Abbot Ale. For evenings and special occasions, try the more formal dining room with its welcoming traditional décor and daily-changing one rosette standard menu (3 courses for £28.50). Year-round, the reasonably priced bar menu features local delights and daily specials and is very popular in the evenings. 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.
The Lifeboat, and its nearby sister Inn, The Old Coach House, offer comfortable and traditional bed and breakfast (all rooms en-suite) from around £50 pppn (£60 Fri, Sat and Bank Holiday Sundays). Offers and special deals are available for 3-night stays and throughout January and February.

Tel: 01328 830552.
A traditional Norfolk Pub in almost every sense of the word, from the rustic wooden pews and four log fires to the original stone floor and selection of local brews on offer, The Red Lion at Stiffkey is an uncomplicated retreat for those wishing to unwind in a relaxing atmosphere with no whistles and bells.
Centrally located on the A149 coast road, Stiffkey is easily reached from all the towns, villages and attractions that make this region special, from the chic rural hotspots of Holt and Burnham Market to the more classic seaside resorts of Sheringham, Cromer and Wells. There is a popular campsite just a stroll away and the Pub is close enough to the sea for those sitting outside to be refreshed by the sea breeze on warmer days.
In wonderful contrast, eating at The Stiffkey Red Lion is a less traditional affair. While the decor may be reassuringly simple, as you’d expect from a bona fide country alehouse, the cuisine is fresh, modern and mouth-watering. The main menu features classic dishes that take advantage of the wealth of local produce, changing regularly depending on seasonal availability. A specials board changes daily, offering a selection of more cosmopolitan dishes. There are also dishes for children and several vegetarian options.
You can choose to eat in any of the three rooms in the pub or in the conservatory or dining room. There is outside seating too if you’d prefer to dine al fresco.
Ideally situated on the North Norfolk coast (and reachable on foot from several nearby locations, including Wells-next-the-Sea), The Red Lion is the ideal stop-off for walkers, cyclists or birdwatchers. It is great for a hearty lunch, a refreshing pint of Nelson’s Revenge or an evening meal to finish off a hard day of sightseeing.

A traditional country local in the pretty Norfolk village of Hunworth, and formerly known as The Bluebell Inn, The Hunny Bell keeps true to its rural position, offering real ales (including local brews by Woodfordes among others) from a gleaming wooden bar that compliments the solid wooden fittings and furnishings throughout. The interior has been given a sympathetic twist with new upholstery and contemporary detailing to create an air of comfortable-chic.
The menu at The Hunny Bell, devised by head Chef Martin Recchi, centres on traditional dishes, made simply from local ingredients but made very, very well. Including time-honoured favourites such as Cod and Chips and Steak and Kidney Pie, the food is already considered by many to be the best served in the locale.
Under its new ownership, The Hunny Bell is still very much a country village pub at heart with a welcoming feel and uncomplicated food and drink at reasonable prices.

The Yurt.
Drove Orchards, Thornham, Norfolk, PE36 6LS.
Tel: 07765 333232 / 01692 402137.
Camping enthusiasts will tell you that nothing compares to the experience of sleeping under canvas. But what about eating under canvas? Visit the new Yurt ‘Rustic Restaurant and Café’ at Drove Orchards in Thornham, and you can judge for yourself.
A totally unique concept in eating out, The Yurt is a large, round, semi-permanent tent with vertical walls and a conical roof. Inside you’ll find a gentle Turkish-cum-Moroccan style interior, with lamps, lanterns and low tables with reclined wicker chairs alongside more conventional blue wooden dining furniture. The atmosphere is ambient with peaceful music and no urgency to hurry. Think Very-VIP chill-out tent at Glastonbury. Imagine Kate Moss and cohorts. You get the idea.
In contrast to the décor, the menu is closer to home in its origin – delicious hot dishes, all day breakfasts and doorstep sandwiches, as well as mouth-watering cakes and puddings. Simple(ish) fare made from high quality local produce. If its simply refreshment you’re after, The Yurt does a nice selection of coffees, teas and soft drinks.
Open Mon-Weds 9am-5pm, Thurs-Sat 9am-5pm & 6pm-9pm, Sun 9am-5pm.
