THE LIFEBOAT INN
The surrounding area offers a multitude of interesting places to see and activities to enjoy. Holkham Hall, Sandringham House or Nelson's birthplace at nearby Burnham Thorpe are just a few of the many historic locations nearby drive down the coast will take you to many little fishing villages with picturesque quaysides - not to mention all sorts of little shops, galleries and surprises.
Golfers can test their ability on one of the country's top Championship Links at Hunstanton. There is also the equally challenging Royal West Norfolk course at Brancaster only 5 minutes drive from the Inn. Should you want to make a week of it, there are fine courses within easy reach at Sheringham, King's Lynn and Cromer.
Bird watchers, walkers and nature lovers are spoilt for choice. A walk from our front door will take you to Thornham beach in no time at all. Holme Nature Reserve is 2 miles away and Snettisham, Blakeney, Holkham and Cley Nature Reserve are all within a short driving distance.
There are numerous and varied walks along miles of open beaches, across sweeping sand dunes, through pine woods or along chalk and sandstone cliff tops. It is truly a walker's paradise - especially if you're a dog!
For more nautical guests there is also (ask the golfers) a fair breeze and Brancaster Staithe has all the facilities for sailing. Hunstanton is now one of the busiest windsurfing centres in Britain. From the cliffs it is rare, come rain or shine, not to see windsurfers whizzing along 'on the crest of the wave'.
