WATTON Watton, a beloved market town nestled in Breckland, Norfolk, offers a tranquil retreat with abundant country homes and equestrian properties. Each year, the Wayland Show, among England's oldest agricultural shows, brings the community together.

The town boasts essential amenities, including primary, junior, and secondary schools, a GP clinic, dental surgery, chemist, supermarket, Post Office, and sports centre. Loch Neaton, reputedly England's sole loch, originated in 1875 when Scottish railway workers excavated land, creating a lake filled by the River Wissey. Though the Victorian-era attractions have vanished, Loch Neaton remains a scenic spot for leisurely walks and fishing.

Nearby Wayland Wood, rumoured to be the setting for the children's tale "Babes in the Wood," invites exploration with its natural beauty. Outdoor enthusiasts can explore Thetford Forest's cycling trails or tee off at Richmond Park Golf Course, an expansive 18-hole course set in picturesque parkland.

After a day of activities, Watton offers several welcoming pubs like The Willow House and The Waggon & Horses in Griston, or The Old Bell in Saham Toney, ideal for enjoying local ales and hearty meals.

With its rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and diverse property offerings, Watton shines as a gem in Norfolk's rural landscape.
