Self-catering holiday cottages in Norfolk

Norfolk offers a diverse range of enjoyable activities, from rest and relaxation with a leisurely day trip on the Norfolk Broads to superb shopping opportunities in the county town of Norwich. The breadth of attractions on offer make holiday cottages in Norfolk a really good base to explore the East of England – as comfortable as hotels and more spacious, you get the home-away-from-home experience with the whole of Norfolk on your doorstep.Known for quaint flintstone holiday cottages and fishing villages yet home to the Queens residence, Sandringham Palace Estate is a great visit - it has been the private home of four generations of British monarchs since 1862.

Water sports and wildlife, fishing, walking and bird watching, historic monuments and castles provide memorable holiday picnic spots. Holiday homes near the water - the beach, the town or hidden away in the countryside, you will find a friendly welcome.
