BLAKENEY

It would be hard to find a spot which reflects the beauty of the Norfolk coast better than Blakeney. Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is a picture perfect location.

When the tide s touching the shoreline, untie your laces and dip your toes in, take the plunge or push off with a slow drift along coastal inlets on a paddleboard or boat to lose yourself in nature s finest backdrop. Forage some samphire for a taste of the coast, try your hand at catching a crab on the quay, or join the tourists and spot seals bobbing on the waters.

Despite the relaxed scene, Blakeney was once a bustling medieval port and the village s Guildhall and Church of St Nicholas are evidence of its rich, trading past which continued until the mid 19th century. As ships grew in size and the harbour silted up, trade fell away and today only small boats can pass Blakeney Point and head out to sea. Today, the nature reserve surrounding Blakeney Point is owned by the National Trust and thousands of nesting and migratory birds provide a twitcher s paradise where the tweets are tech free.

There are plenty of places to meet and make friends. Local boys Grey Seal Coffee roast their beans at nearby Glandford and its caf is a great stop for a caffeine hit nab a bag or two and even some spent grounds for your garden. The White Horse and, for a fancy supper, The Blakeney Hotel are iconic spots to eat.

Teeming with character, Blakeney truly is a place to discover your next Norfolk home.
