Sandringham Estate Country Park is probably one of my favourite discoveries. I think it might be the one place that has everything – nice café, parking, pushchair friendly, play area, woodland walks of different lengths, sculptures, trees to climb on, baby change, gift shop, free entry (although there are car park charges), dog friendly… I […]
What a little beauty! We had a truly magical walk round here in hunt of bluebells. Gorgeous, especially with the sun streaming through. This is a great site. Lots of stroller friendly paths (despite the occasional tree across the odd path). Will be lovely even without the bluebells. There’s a small car park off the […]
(Last visited August 2018) This has become increasingly popular since we first visited a few years ago – if you can, I’d recommend a visit during the week rather than the weekend. Really close (about half a mile drive) to the fantastic Goodies Food Hall which has a café, farm shop, toilets and play area. […]
We absolutely adored this walk. We parked at the main car park (not the one at the house which is reserved for guests) – the walk starts just behind the house. It starts off as a lovely little woodland walk and tucked away further on is the secret garden – a beautiful little boarded walk […]
(Last visited October 2018) Hickling Broad is massive – it’s the biggest broad – so in normal times you could spend a whole day exploring all the paths. It is suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs as a lot of it is boardwalk or compacted surface. In recent times there has been a one-way route of […]
(Last visited July 2021) What a beauty! Beautiful snowdrops in the spring, beautiful place full stop. We had a stunning walk around here. Some gorgeous carpets of snowdrops in My Lady’s Wood and the area by the chapel. And a fantastic ancient oak and other cracking trees along the woodland walk. Lots of accessible paths […]
(Last visited January 2020) There are few places that tick all the boxes but this is one of them. I love it here. We have an amazing time every time we visit – it took us forever to walk round the last time as we had about 4000 stoppages for a 4-year-old to engage with […]
This is a new one for me – writing about a walk I haven’t been on! I have been desperate to get down here for ages but haven’t been able to, so my lovely friend Laura has ‘audited’ it for me as it’s bursting with snowdrops in the spring and I wanted to share it […]
(Last visited February 2020) Norwich is a medieval city that retains cobbled streets, ancient buildings and half-timbered houses. Meandering through its centre is the River Wensum – a tributary to the Rive Yare which has historical significance as a means of transport for goods and trade.This is a short but pretty walk along the River […]
(Last visited February 2020) I have visited here before but only to the tearoom – in February 2020, I had the chance to visit the four acre garden too. What a little gem! This is a perfect stop along the A140 between Aylsham and Cromer. The Artisan Café is utterly fab, there is a gift […]
