Bacton and its near neighbour, Walcott, are welcoming villages with great cafés, fish & chip shops, pub-restaurants and handy shops.
All the seaside villages along this coast are lovely to visit, each with its own distinct character. The larger resorts of Cromer and Sheringham are an easy drive away and offer great days out.
The Broads National Park, home to beautiful waterways and teaming with wildlife, is close by. River trips and boat hire are available.
A day out at the adventure park, Bewilderwood, is a must if you have younger children and nearby Bacton Woods is ideal for walking, with or without dogs, and cycling. A visit to the famed Old Vicarage Gardens, East Ruston, is a real treat and golfers won’t be disappointed with three high quality courses nearby.
Beautiful National Trust properties and parks in the vicinity include Blickling Hall, Felbrigg Hall, Sheringham Park and Horsey Windpump. Late autumn and winter stays offer a very special experience. Hundreds of grey seals give birth to their pups along the shoreline of nearby Horsey Beach. You can witness this incredible sight from the Dunes.
And not forgetting, Norwich, a beautiful city steeped in history with two cathedrals, a castle, museums, theatres and home to the ’The Lanes,’ a higgledy-piggledy mix of independent shops and cafés, to while away an afternoon.

This is the second time we have stayed in this cottage and I would go back again. It is right near a lovely quiet, dog friendly beach. The cafe and chip shop near by are great and it is a nice and peaceful area. The owner is very welcoming as well.

We had a great holiday at Stones Throw. A great location - only a few minutes walk from the beach. It's a lovely sandy beach that was enjoyed by the kids and dogs in the group (and the adults!) The bungalow had everything we needed for a comfortable weeks stay. The enclosed garden was perfect for the two dogs.Although there was not much to do in Bacton apart from the beach - this property provided a great base for exploring North Norfolk.

Fabulous bungalow in a great location. Literally minutes from the most beautiful beach. The garden is big and very secure for our furry friends. The accommodation was exceptionally clean and well equipped. Stayed for 2 weeks and didn’t want to leave. Kingfisher fish and chips and Oriental Garden Chinese takeaway (cash only), both highly recommended.
