CLEY
Cley-next-the-Sea is renowned for its winter visitors and rare native birds, visible from the village’s iconic windmill. This quaint coastal village boasts unique shops, two pubs, a church, and acclaimed food spots like The Cley Smoke House for smoked fish and Picnic Fayre for gourmet delicacies.
Just under five miles away lies Holt, a community-focused town known for its local events such as the Holt Festival and 1940s Weekend. Holt features traditional shops like a butcher, fishmonger, and greengrocer, alongside Bakers and Larners, a historic department store and food hall since 1770. Gresham’s School, founded in 1955, adds to the town’s rich heritage.
Holt offers chic boutiques and lifestyle stores, including Norfolk Natural Living for locally made fragrances. Byfords deli and café, believed to be the town’s oldest house, is a perfect spot to relax with coffee and watch the world go by.
