CLEY-NEXT-THE-SEA is a picturesque North Norfolk coastal village within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Conservation area. Known for its historic charm, the village is characterized by traditional flint cottages, narrow lanes, and a prominent 18th-century windmill now run as a bed and breakfast establishment, overlooking the reed beds and marshes which are part of the Cley Marshes Nature Reserve. This reserve is one of the oldest and most renowned bird-watching sites in the UK, attracting ornithologists from around the world.
Cley-next-the-Sea also features an impressive variety of independent local shops, galleries, and cafes that cater to visitors year-round as well as two pubs - The George and Three Swallows. The village has retained much of its historical character, making it a popular destination for tourists seeking a quiet, scenic, and culturally rich experience in Norfolk.
The shingle beach is within easy walking distance along the coastal path and attracts wild swimmers, paddle borders and families alike. The village, once a significant north Norfolk port has recently benefited from dredging, restoration of the quayside and the installation of a boardwalk courtesy of the Cley Old Harbour Project.
The Georgian town of Holt which is about 5 miles away is known for its excellent selection of shopping and also Gresham’s public school for girls and boys. The City of Norwich with a main line service to London is approximately 26 miles away.
