Part of the Sandringham Estate, the country park was created in 1968 and means that you can explore the area for free. There are two nature trails you can follow and it is especially beautiful during the spring while the rhododendrons are out or in autumn when the trees are full of their golden glow.

Sandringham Estate

Highlight • Natural

Sandringham Estate was famously the Queen's favourite country retreat. Surrounded by 20,000 acres of gardens, parks and woodland, the estate is a beautiful stretch of NCN National Route 1.

Practical matters: If you're intending to stay and have a longer look around, there is limited bike parking in the Courtyard near the ticket office. Bicycles are not permitted in the Gardens, however cycling in the Royal Park is welcomed. You will need to carry everything with you as there are no lockers / luggage storage facilities.

Sandringham House and Gardens

Highlight • Settlement

A famous royal getaway, Sandringham House has served as a private home for royals since 1862 and remains the Queen's favourite country retreat. Surrounded by 20,000 acres of manicured gardens, green parks and woodlands, the beautiful estate has been open to the public since 1977. About the estate, George V once said "dear old Sandringham, the place I love better than anywhere else in the world." George V and VI both died in the house. It's easy to see why the place was so dear to them.

You can visit the house, museum and gardens from April to mid-October from 11am until 5pm. Tickets cost £17.50 for adults. You can find more information, here: sandringhamestate.co.uk
