Norfolk
Apart from the popular attractions such as the waterways of the Broads and gathering in the larger resorts, Norfolk offers a peaceful and picturesque county of grand estates, unspoilt coastline, attractive scenery and prolific wildlife. The National Trust cares for some of the most magnificent properties in the region, together with several miles of coast including the renowned Blakeney Point nature reserve. The National Trust owned estates of Blickling, Felbrigg, Sheringham and Horsey - and the converted mill at Burnham Overy - are all excellent bases from which to explore Norfolk.

Burnham Overy Watermill
This grade II listed building is situated on the North Norfolk Heritage Coast and within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Much of the North Norfolk coast is owned by the National Trust and supports internationally important nature reserves open to visitors, world renowned birdwatching, regular boat trips out to see seals, sailing, fishing, golfing or leisurely cycling along quiet country lanes with spectacular views. The former watermill and maltings date from the 18th Century and has been sympathetically converted to accommodate residential cottages and apartments. Both the East End Apartments and nearby Mrs Preedy’s cottage look out over the attractive mill pool.
