WIVETON Situated on the west bank of the River Glaven, Wiveton is just a couple of miles inland from the north Norfolk coast, within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.Until the 17th century, the River Glaven was navigable and Wiveton was a port. The outline of the former harbour can still be seen in the fields between Wiveton and Cley. Today, the village's charming lanes are lined with quaint cottages and quintessential brick and flint homes, giving a distinctly Norfolk feel. The Wiveton Bell, incredibly popular with locals and visitors alike, serves tasty, locally sourced food. Wiveton Hall Fruit Farm Café – famed by owner Desmond MacCarthy's Normal for Norfolk BBC series – is a great summer destination.
Just two miles away, picture perfect Blakeney is made for Instagram-worthy shots of moored boats on mud flats, under big blue skies. And if you feel like exploring further afield, the whole stretch of coastline is easily accessible from here.
Heading inland, The Georgian market town of Holt is about a ten minute drive, and is filled with independent businesses, bound together by a strong sense of community. With a traditional butcher, fishmonger and greengrocer, the town even has its own department store and food hall, Bakers and Larners, a local landmark which has been run by the same family since 1770.
The town and its surrounding yards house a collection of chic boutiques and luxe lifestyle stores to explore and fill your home and wardrobe with beautiful things – linger and choose your favourite locally made fragrance at Norfolk Natural Living.
Life moves at a leisurely pace in Holt, and there are plenty of places to idle over a coffee or bite to eat. Believed to be the oldest house in town, Byfords deli and café is a central landmark and fabulous place to stop and watch the world go by. There's no need to hurry home – relax and enjoy country life!
