Description
Location
Thornham is widely regarded as one of the marquee villages of the North Norfolk Coast, combining an outstanding coastal setting with an exceptional range of amenities. The village is renowned for its thriving food scene and is home to three well-known public houses, The Orange Tree, The Chequers and the historic Lifeboat Inn, a former coaching inn dating back over 400 years. Thornham also boasts the popular Thornham Deli, together with its picturesque harbour and the iconic Coal Barn, one of the area's most photographed landmarks.
The surrounding coastline offers miles of sandy beaches, nature reserves and coastal walks, making the village particularly attractive to walkers, sailors and wildlife enthusiasts. Nearby Burnham Market, Brancaster and Holkham further enhance the area's appeal, whilst King's Lynn provides a mainline railway station with direct services to Ely, Cambridge and London King's Cross.
