Sheringham

Location Sheringham is a delightful small town in an area of outstanding natural beauty on the North Norfolk coast, nestling between the sea and Pretty Corner woods. The town is a popular holiday destination and the centre has an excellent range of independent shops and supermarkets. There are excellent schools for all ages including many public schools within a few miles. There are bus and rail links to the bustling city of Norwich and the nearby towns of Holt, Cromer. The 'Coasthopper' bus gives links to Wells, Blakeney and Cley, coastal villages popular with bird watchers, sailors and nature lovers alike and with a wide variety of habitats for wildlife. There is a modern health centre, dentist, theatre with cinema, library, the 'Reef' Leisure Centre and a magnificent 18 hole cliff top golf course.

Sheringham also boasts some excellent coastal and woodland walks in the vicinity. The beach enjoys a blue flag status and is a mix of shingle and sand depending on the tide, with a wide promenade running the length of the town. The town hosts several events throughout the year including the Viking Festival, Crab and Lobster Festivals, Carnival and 1940's Weekend and the North Norfolk Steam Railway attracts many visitors.
