Norfolk's Hidden Gems Lists The Best Holiday Cottages In Thornham

Norfolk, UK based Norfolk’s Hidden Gems recently published a new blog post on their website listing the best things to do and the best places to visit near Thornham in North Norfolk. The agency also highlighted a number of the most sought after cottages and private accommodation in the area where families can stay for a memorable and relaxing holiday.

Thornham is a thriving village and popular holiday destination, perched on the apex of the North West Norfolk coastline. During the 18th century, this coastline was notorious for smuggling when wool, tea, tobacco and alcohol were unloaded off the creeks at Thornham. Today, it is home to a number of top-rated pubs, such as The Lifeboat Inn, The Orange Tree Inn and Restaurant, The Chequers Inn, The Thornham Deli, Eric's Fish and Chips and The Yurt Thornham.

This means that holidaymakers will never run out of dining options since all the pubs and bars in the area are only a short distance from one another. Meanwhile, one of the best places to see in Norfolk is The Coal Barn, which is situated at the water’s edge in Thornham Harbour. It is surrounded by attractive views adjacent to beautiful marshes and creeks. Due to its outstanding, picturesque qualities, it has been the subject of countless paintings over the years and was recently featured on BBC’s Great Expectations.

Meanwhile, Kevin Conroy from Norfolk's Hidden Gems explains that holidaymakers will never run out of things to do in North Norfolk. He says that near Thornham there are beautiful beaches in Holme, Hunstanton and Brancaster, and the area is also known for its walking trails, salt marshes and bird reserves. In addition, golfers can play at the courses located in Brancaster, Hunstanton and Heacham Manor. Activities such as boating, sailing, water-skiing, windsurfing, kite surfing and paddle-boarding are also available to those who seek all manner of fun under the sun.

Thornham’s neighbouring villages also offer many places of interest that tourists may visit. Holidaymakers can take a short drive to nearby places like the highly acclaimed Neptune Inn in Hunstanton, The White Horse in Holme, The Gin Trap in Ringstead, The Ship in Brancaster and more.

“Norfolk has a tremendous amount to offer and caters for all ages and tastes. On the coast, there are wonderful beaches. You can also go sailing, canoeing, paddle-boarding and sight-seeing—such as the seals at Titchwell Creake or Blakeney Point. There are also sporting facilities like golf courses and tennis courts as well as great routes for cycling or walking and some of the best windsurfing and kite surfing spots in the country,” says Conroy.

He further recommends that explorers consider exploring Walsingham, Holt, Burnham Market, Blakeney Harbour, Wells-next-the-Sea, Hunstanton, Sheringham, and Cromer. These areas are concentrated closer to the coast, where most of the best holiday cottages are located and which represents what most people like about staying in Norfolk.

With regard to the best places to stay in Norfolk, the agency recommends three of the newest and top-rated holiday homes in the area. They include the Lyng Farmhouse in Thornham (sleeps 12), Sea Holly in Thornham (sleeps 6) and Sea Lavender (sleeps 6). “If you prefer a different location, we also pinned our recommendations on the map embedded on the blog post,” says Conroy.

Absolutely gorgeous cottage and brilliant organisation from Kevin.” Similarly, Barbara Drummond says in their 5-star Google review, “I booked a cottage to take my friend, daughter and granddaughter, plus dogs.
