Wells - a hidden coastal gem

With its long sweeping beach backed by pine woodland, harbour fishing boats and tree-lined park, this unspoilt North Norfolk coastal town is a joy to explore.

Explore Holkham Hall

Just along the coast is one of England's finest agricultural estates. Holkham Hall is an elegant Palladian-style house, home to the Earls of Leicester. It's surrounded by rolling parkland and a 3,000-acre deer park.

Go seal-spotting at Blakeney Point

At this wildlife paradise on the North Norfolk coast, you can get up close to both grey and common seals. A boat will take you out into the open waters of Blakeney Channel among the sailing dinghies. Ahead of you is the Point, where you'll see a diverse array of seabirds and animals. The seals are the stars of the show though, and over 2,000 seal pups are born here every year.
