Just a short drive away is the Snetterton motor racing circuit, an absolute must for motorsport fans as it plays host to a number of major sporting events such as the British Touring Car and the British Superbikes Championships, or head to the historic city of Norwich for a range of well-established restaurants and shops. 1 Aleutia Gardens is a unique escape, whatever time of year.

Thetford, a sizable, ancient market town in Norfolk on the border with Suffolk, has a rich history that can be explored on foot via the many interesting trails and museums it hosts. The town of Thetford and the surrounding villages are more widely recognised by their fictional TV name, Walmington-on-Sea, from the 1980s television series Dad's Army. Thetford Forest, Britain's largest lowland pine forest, is just outside of town and home to a nature reserve and the Peddars Way National Trail. Excellent trails for all abilities can be found at High Lodge Forest Centre, making it a great destination for families, walkers, and cyclists. The kids will especially love the Squirrel Maze. If you're feeling adventurous, you can try out Go Trax or the Go Ape high ropes course, or you can simply unwind in the café and gift shop. Lynford Arboretum and Lakes is a fantastic destination throughout the year. The Grimes Grave Flint Mines and the Iceni settlement of Cockley Cley are located further afield.
