"The information that you sent to us and the arrangements that you made were brilliant (the best we have ever had on several walking holidays over the years in the UK"
"Having returned home from Norfolk yesterday I just wanted to thank you for your excellent organisation of the walk. Everything was absolutely faultless - the accommodation was very good, the bags were always there when we needed them and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We walked well and ate well!! Even the weather couldn't be faulted, six days of sun, but with a breeze - the storm on Sunday arrived 20 minutes after we checked into the B & B!!
Thank you once again. We are already planning our next long distance footpath - the company we use have a lot to live up to! I shall certainly recommend you, wholeheartedly, to anyone I know wishing to attempt the walk in future."

Why not read my blog on my Norfolk Coast Path walk which I did in 6 days (before it was extended - then I had to walk the rest!), or the blog on my 4 day Peddars Way walk.
If you would like to take a rest day on your Norfolk walking holidays then we can fit that into your itinerary.
There are wonderful castle ruins to see, stately homes that will blow you away, other circular walks in the surrounding areas and of course the amazing nature reserves. All of these are well worth taking a day off for, and I will be very happy to explain more, or suggest ideas. Or you can browse this Explore Norfolk UK site for more information on what you would like to see. It always seems a shame to me that you might just walk these long distance trails but not see the surrounding areas.
The Peddars Way is one of our Norfolk Walking Holidays and is a 46 mile trail that starts just outside Thetford at Knettishall Heath and finishes in Holme-next-the-Sea.

The same goes for the Norfolk Coast Path. This trail is now 83 miles long. It starts at Hunstanton and ends in Hopton-on-Sea. This path was extended in December 2014, and then in 2016 so now covers the whole of the fantastic Norfolk Coast. If you want to know more about this trail, please visit the Norfolk Coast Path page.
The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path combined makes for a little over a good week’s walk and is 128 miles long depending on how far you want to walk each day!
Walking both of these paths will give you such a wonderful sense of achievement.
The Wherryman's Way is approximately 38 miles long and closely follows the River Yare from the historic city of Norwich to the east coast town of Great Yarmouth. Please visit the Wherryman's Way page for more details.
This mid week break is ideal for groups of friends or walking groups who want to get away for a 3 night stay and do some lovely local walks.

You can read more about this Group Walking Break here.
This short break consists of 3 nights and 2 days walking. There are 2 walks, one a circular walk and one a linear walk, both taking in National Trust properties, woodland, heath land, amazing views over the North Norfolk countryside and walking amongst places of interest and historic significance. Please visit the Sheringham Short Break Walking Holiday here for more details.
We can also arrange a 2 day walk/3 nights in Wells-next-the-Sea which will give you a chance to experience the best stretches of the Norfolk Coast Path in a couple of days
Once you reach the end of your holiday, you’ll reflect and look back on where you started, and where you’ve finished, and wonder how one county can have so many varying landscapes. I guarantee you’ll love it!
