The Old Granary, Wells-next-the-Sea

Highlight • Viewpoint

One reason why [WNTS] has preserved its character is that it was until recent times a manufacturing town, once supplying huge quantities of malt to the Dutch and then latterly to London breweries.

It was, in the eighteenth century, nationally important as a producer of malt. The iconic maltings and granaries, now turned to new uses make its working quay a fascinating place to visit.

An impressive feature of the harbour is the large granary building with its distinctive overhanging gantry. Built in 1903, the granary has now been turned into luxury flats with magnificent views of the harbour.

Holkham Park

Highlight • Lake

The parklands surrounding Halkham Hall extend for over 3000 acres. Originally designed by William Kent, the parklands have evolved over the centuries. You can explore the walled kitchen gardens, walk to the obelisk, visit the vinery, marvel at plants in the greenhouses and walk around the glistening lake.

There's a 10-mile (16 km) circular route through the park for cyclists. Expect to see lots of wildlife, especially deers.

The park is open from 9am to 4pm during winter and until 5pm in summer. Most of the park is free to visit. If you would like to see the hall and walled gardens, tickets cost £14.40 per adult.

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
