Blickling Hall, Magnificent Jacobean House
One of my favourite villages on the Norfolk coast.
Yes I agree, it’s a lovely place isn’t it. I love the church towering over the coastline.
0:20 if im not wrong the house that appear first from the creek here (which has blue windows if you look closely) is the house that inspired Joan G Robinson 1967 novel 'When Marnie was there' story i wish i could visit it someday its a beautiful place
Oh I don’t know about that, thanks for giving us some interesting information about it.
Thank you so much for your quick reply, my powerchair is only 2ft 4" (28") total width and looking at the bridges in the video, they must be at least 3ft (36") wide if not more, I am sure you would remember if they were very narrow and the bridge with the gate must be as wide as the gate posts and it definitely looks at least 3ft from the video and that is the standard garden type gate width, although it could be a bit wider. What are your thoughts?
Hi, this walk looks like it is almost accessible for my 4 wheel drive powerchair, the only obstacles that I can see are the bridge with the gate near the start and a footbridge over a dyke at 8.43 on the video, can you tell me how high the step is onto the bridge and how wide the wooden bridges are please and can you think of any other obstacles that I have missed. We are planning on trying this walk in the near future and any help would be much appreciated. I have worked out a plan to overcome the step onto the bridge depending on the height difference (don't worry it is a safe method) Look forward to hearing from you. All the best Jon and Wendy in Derbyshire. 🙂🙂
It's a lovely walk, but I'm afraid I won't be over that way for some time so I can't get you the measurements of the footbridges any time soon I'm afraid, I'm really sorry. There isn't a step onto the bridge, it just goes from one side of the dyke to the other.
Best time to see the seals is mid December to mid January, lots of pups on the beach. Wrap up warm in winter, itis windy, raining or both.
Unless you're in the middle of a heatwave with long periods of drought the muddy bit is always muddy, and at times deep in mud. But that is the only stretch. The Blickling estate is a great place to walk as there are loads of variations, and ways to cut short the walk if you need to. There is not much to see in the mausoleum, but it is open several times a year. A nice time to visit is when the bluebells are in bloom, the NT website will tell you when. its a great place to take your dog for a walk, the muddy boots cafe at the main carpark allows them in its back room. There is another larger cafe near the house and another in the rear courtyard. There is a pub close to the carpark. You can also rent bikes, all in all it's great for walkers. it's my local NT park and I walk there most weeks. Only high winds occasionally shuts the park.
Thanks so much for your comments which are really helpful. I can tell you love the grounds as well! It’s a fantastic place, and you’re right, you can adjust the walk to make it shorter should you wish. I just get this “pull” to walk past the Mausoleum!
What a lovely walk, can you tell us if we would be able to access this walk with my 4x4 electric powerchair please, we are planning to visit Norfolk in the near future and it looks fantastic and just the sort of thing we enjoy. All the best Wendy and Jon in Derbyshire
Thanks for your lovely comments. There’s a gate to get through before you reach the wood and you have to go up and down some steps to get over a bridge after the wood (both of these are near the beginning), both of which you can see in the video. Hope that helps.
@@ExploreNorfolkUK Thank you for the quick reply, I had seen the first gate but couldn't work out from the video if it is a normal gate that I could get through (my chair is 28" wide) or a kissing gate with a restricted swing and no area at the side for me to drive into and then swing the gate across. We would be happy to just visit the Priory and then tale a walk as far as the steps you mentioned if that is possible, because it looks lovely.
@@ExploreNorfolkUK We are glad we found your channel and we have subscribed and when we visit Norfolk we are going to video our adventures and post them on our channel, hopefully we can find some accessible places to explore with my powerchair.
I would like a video on Cromer Hall thanks I am David Cromer
Fabulous! Thank you.
Thank you for thus video.
Thank you, it's a fantastic walk.
Very enjoyable video thank you. I found your video as I did walk part of the walk at school and always will remember the woods. Huge trees and the best fun I’d had on a trip
Thank you, that's great to hear. Glad it brought back memories - that's fun!
What a fabulous video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
RSPB not rsbp.
Really interesting , i’ve only just discovered this video . Planning a Norfolk hike next Spring . This is a walk we will definitely be taking .Thankyou !
Great, I really hope you enjoy it. The view from the “top” of the hill (yes we do have hills in Norfolk!) is amazing. Thanks!
Such a beautiful walk ❤️
I totally agree, one of my favourites!!
When you live in a town and you visit the North Norfolk Coast, you understand that you never really properly see the sky - those dramatic big blue skies are one of the things I most love about visiting the area and the sense of freedom they give you. Thanks for this lovely video getting my fix of coastal walks at home on the computer until I can next visit again.
Thanks Matthew, so glad that this gives you your coastal fix - I know exactly what you mean!
Lovely. Was looking for ideas for the next walk.
Thanks Matt, glad you enjoyed it.
A well shot peaceful, tranquil and beautiful walk, will be coming back to Norfolk very soon Suzy. Thank you.
Another interesting and beautiful walk, i now know of pingos, i`d never heard of them before, every day is a school day, lol
Very peaceful, it made me smile, many thanks Suzy.
Great walk Suzy, was particularly impressed by the views, Norfolk holds many hidden gems,
Thanks for taking the time to comment and I’m really glad you enjoyed the walk. This is one of my favourites!
@@ExploreNorfolkUK you're very welcome 😊
Great walks Suzy, i enjoy watching them, i`ve been to Cromer many times for weekend breaks. Hi fromLincoln.
Thanks Andrew, great to hear 👍 and glad you’re enjoying them.
You're welcome 😊
beautiful and peaceful

Great video
Thanks!
I did this walk last Sunday. Didn’t meet another person until the end! A perfect walk.
Great to hear, and thank you for the comment. I’m delighted you enjoyed it. 👍
I did this walk on Monday. Very beautiful. Very pretty villages. Thank you for sharing it.
So glad you enjoyed this walk, as well as the Nar Bone Mill walk. 😀
I’m staying in Heachem next week and will certainly do this walk with my Beagle. Thanks for sharing.
That’s great, I hope you enjoy it!
Great video you need to make it clear on your website about campers and motorhomes not welcome in the carpark though
Oh gosh, thank you. I didn’t realise that. I will do so.
Yup. We use a campervan for disability purposes. We are at Scratby now in a holiday , we booked to be close to Horesy. To say we are disappointed at the anti campervan attitude in a lot of Norfolk, is an understatement. We will spend our money elsewhere next time we go away.
As National Trust members we always start the walk at Felbrigg, and Lunch in Cromer, a lovely way to enjoy North Norfolk. its a nice walk winter or summer.
That’s great to hear, and a good idea too if you’re a National Trust member.
Picked this for our new years day walk...It did not disappoint - but the shingle was an interesting walking experience. Great clear instructions and a lovely walk
Bethany, thanks for letting us know. I’m so glad you enjoyed it, it’s great to hear. Thanks
hi can you do a walk around norwich please love your walks
Oh, I’ve got so many walks I want to do but it’s finding the time. So glad you enjoy them, it gives me inspiration to carry on and try and get some more up! Thanks 😊
Hello Susie and thank you so much for taking the time to upload this video. I’ve lived locally my whole life and never knew about this walk. My partner and I walked this today and it was magic. Bone Mill blew our minds! Our hound loved it too! love to know what the cutting in Marham Fen is for? Woodland tea party? Good old Norfolk Witchcraft? Cow Rave…….? Any-who thanks again, we’ll be walking more of your adventures! You can count on it👌🏻
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! It’s funny isn’t it, that so often you don’t see things on your own doorstep. I love the bone mill. I have plans to put more walks up, it just takes a little time!
Looks good never been here, site of Anne Boleyn birth,(in a earlier house )
Thank you for this walk. It is very peaceful and I enjoyed it very much.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you. Great video. Can't wait to get some crab and explore Norfolk.
Exciting - hope you have a great time, and definitely get some crab - so delicious 😋
That looks a lovely walk - and good to know where to leave the car
Thanks! I hope you enjoy it too!
Amazing video, I enjoyed this hike!
Aw, thank you very much 😊
That looks a lovely walk. I’ll have to try this one. Mutley sure had a lot of fun. 😊
It’s a very peaceful walk! And yes, Mutley did enjoy himself, he loves water! 😀
Looks a lovely walk with stunning views loving the lakes , nice video 🙂👍
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it - it’s a great walk and very watery!!
Great video ive done these walks individually but never attempted the circular.Didnt know about the cut through over the bridge great share 🙂👍
Great video , a really nice walk i done this a couple of years ago thanks for sharing look forward to viewing more 🙂👍
Thank you, glad you’re enjoying them!
Stunning area. Can’t wait to explore more of this area. I walked the Norfolk coast past back in 2019. I often pop up across the border from Suffolk. Great video 😊
Thank you! Lots more to do when we can roam freely!
Lovely walk which I have done several times including today. Would recommend the Peddars way to anyone who loves hiking. It’s easy to follow. I did the Peddars way in a day last summer to push myself.
Wow, walking the Peddars Way in a day, that’s incredible. It’s a great walk. Glad you enjoy the Pingo trail too, I bet it was wet today?!
@@ExploreNorfolkUK I wouldn’t recommend walking the Peddars way in a day, I started at 3am finished around 10:30pm. Yes the Pingo trail was extremely muddy today but still loved every second.
Me & my family come here every year in the summer, tbh I can see why people like it so much and why it’s so popular.
Totally agree. It’s such a vibrant and busy town, always bustling. And the beach and beach huts have to be the best 😀
Fantastic video Suzy, we love Norfolk, this video makes us want to go again soon. It always has a calming and tranquil atmosphere like your video!
That’s so kind of you to say, thank you so much. I’m beginning to realise more and more how lucky I am to live in Norfolk. It’s a very special place. Calming and tranquil are the right words!!
A very nice walk, and enticing me back to Norfolk Suzy! Many thanks.
Thanks Peter, I’m glad it’s had that effect on you!!
Regulary catch the train from norwich with my dog to cromer (£9.50 return), walk to sidestrand up to the top have a munch, then back along the cliff to cromer. We don t rush, more of a stoll, the dog hates water but loves the sea for some reason. Enjoyed watching your walk. Welldone.
Thanks very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's such a lovely walk with amazing views, and what a coastline we have! Coming out of Norwich for the sea air and a walk must be wonderful!
Excellent.... I'll definitely be doing that walk at some point. Plant!🤔.....foxglove perhaps!
It's a really great walk, and I love the views! Let me know how you enjoy it.
