Edingthorpe and the local area
Edingthorpe is a small hamlet in a remarkably unspoilt pocket of countryside in North-East Norfolk between the coast and the broads. The coast at Bacton and Mundesley are about 2 miles away and have excellent sandy beaches as well as good local shopping facilities.
Bacton is known for its very quiet sandy beaches offering miles of walking along the beach and cliffs. A pleasant sandy beach that stretches all the way to Mundesley in one direction and Walcott in the other. It is never busy at Bacton beach as there is no shortage of room. There is a car park at Cable Gap with sloped access.
Bacton Woods are a very popular spot with locals for walks, and are just over a mile by foot or 5 minutes in the car.
East Ruston Gardens are only about 3 miles away and they are a wonderful place to visit, especially if you are a garden lover.
The thriving and historic market town of North Walsham is about 2.5 miles away, and a range of supermarkets, leisure facilities and shops. North Walsham also has a train station with trains to Sheringham and Norwich.
Wroxham is also about 9 miles away, and has lots to offer, including the Norfolk broads, day boats for hire, a small town centre with shops and plenty of places to eat and drink, pubs, a local department store, railway station
The coastal village of Mundesley is a great starting point for country walks with plenty of footpaths, circular routes and walking trails including Paston Way and and the Norfolk Coast Path and is also on the Deep History Coast Discovery Trail and has its own Discovery Point. Mundesley’s award winning wide sandy beach, with colourful beach huts and shallow rock pools, is an ideal playground for children of all ages, and there is also great year-round sea fishing.
Like Horsey beach a few miles down the coast, Bacton is a good place to spot a seal or two. Grey seals and pups are commonly sighted along this stretch of coast. The village also boasts a fish and chip shop, two cafes, a church and a convenience store
The bustling market town of Norwich is about 45 minutes away with its picturesque lanes, buzzy market, cultural displays and dining treats. And of course there are our two famous Cathedrals and Norwich Castle, which was built by the Normans as a Palace over 900 years ago. It is now a museum and art gallery where children can discover more about East Anglia’s own Queen Boudicca. The Museum of Norwich is packed full of exhibitions and interactive displays, or why not enjoy taking the hop-on-hop-off bus to see the city?
Not too far away is Great Yarmouth – a lively resort with an endless list of entertainment and places to eat – not forgetting the Pleasure Beach with its infamous Snail ride, a nine-acre amusement park, the Time and Tide Museum and the brilliant Hippodrome Circus – one of the last purpose-built circus buildings in the UK. Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens is a must if you love animals, and Pettitts Animal Adventure Park has something to do with children of all ages.
If you fancy something a bit more energetic, why not test your nerves at Pleasurewood Hills Family Theme Park. Set on 50 acres, the theme park has rides up to 50mph as well as water-based ones. Smaller children will enjoy the Flying Elephant ride and Big Train – there are also sea lion and parrot shows.
