EASTMOOR

Nestled in the heart of the Norfolk countryside, Eastmoor is a rural idyll, around ten miles east of Downham Market. Surrounded by charming villages which exude timeless appeal, it's a serene escape from the modern world.

One of Norfolk's oldest market towns, Downham Market can be traced back to Saxon times. The town has a good range of shops and a busy market on Fridays and Saturdays as well as a range of schools and nurseries including a college. There are many attractive houses and buildings and an unusual gothic black and white town clock.

There is a mainline railway station with fast direct trains to Cambridge (39 minutes)and London King's Cross (1 hour and 35 minutes). It is an ideal place for walking or cycling and the peaceful waterways are excellent for boating and fishing.

Nearby at Welney is the famous Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust nature reserve, which is very popular with birdwatchers.

In November the Festival of Swans is held where visitors can observe the over-wintering swans.
