Neighbourhood information

The picturesque village of North Creake is home to a traditional village pub The Jolly Farmers. The River Burn runs through the village, flowing into Burnham Overy Town and Burnham Overy Staithe. The popular Augustine Creek Abbey, is located on the edge of the village and boasts excellent independent shops and galleries. Nearby Burnham Market is considered to be North Norfolk's prettiest village, boasting boutique shops and delectable restaurants. For great, contemporary dining, try Socius; or stroll down to Twenty9 where your food will be cooked over an open fire pit imported from New York! The Hoste Arms offers plenty of charm and character with both informal or fine dining. Head to Burnham Thorpe to retrace Admiral Lord Nelson’s steps and to Brancaster Staithe where he first learnt to sail. Enjoy the beaches at Brancaster and Wells where you can sunbathe in the sandy dunes or pull on your walking boots to embark on a coastal walk to Burnham Overy Staithe. Here you can watch the boats or catch a ferry to the mysterious, secluded Scolt Head Island, one of North Norfolk's best kept secrets. Burn Valley Vineyard is a must for wine enthusiasts. Amble down the vine rows before heading back to the winery to sample their fantastic latest vintages accompanied by a charcuterie platter. Visit Holkham, Brancaster, Old Hunstanton, Holme-next-the-Sea and Wells-next-the-Sea, considered to be amongst the most stunning beaches in the UK. With numerous stately homes; including Holkham Hall, Houghton Hall; Felbrigg and Blickling and of course HM The King’s Sandringham residence to visit, you will adore the variety this wonderful coast offers. Immerse yourself in the birdlife at Titchwell, Snettisham or Cley-next-the-Sea reserves, or enjoy a wildlife safari at Pensthorpe. North Creake is well-positioned for exploring North Norfolk's sandy beaches, walking opportunities and abundant wildlife. Just a few miles south, for something very different try Norfolk Padel near...
