The town itself hosts many events throughout the year including the Viking festival, beer festival, 40s weekend and Sheringham carnival week. Being on a main railway line, you can hop aboard and travel to Cromer, Wroxham and Norwich. If you can tear yourself away from this lovely town you can go east or west to discover salt and clay marshes, pretty beaches, rolling sand dunes and picturesque quays. Head to Blakeney and partake in a spot of crabbing or take a seasonal boat trip to see the seals.
Travel a little further and discover Wells-next-the-Sea which offers a host of instant-opportunities, including painted beach huts and a much-photographed quay.

The gateway to the Norfolk Broads is 45 minutes away by car or just over half an hour by train. Here, you can charter your own day launch or join a tour and explore these magnificent waterways. If that gives you a taste for wildlife, head to Pensthorpe Nature Reserve or rspb Cley Marshes, which are also within easy reach. There are many great places to eat locally, something of a must after all that sea air which really does make you hungry. Then you can return to Driftwood House to relax and have a great night’s sleep…

Spacious and comfortable holiday cottage just minutes from the sea with everything you need and at a good price. We had a lovely time in Sheringham which is a wonderful small seaside town

Driftwood House is a real home from home. Ideally located for the shops, trains and buses. It is well equipped, and we spent our 4 day break either in ‘The Snug’, or in the conservatory which is a real sun trap. Very comfy beds, and towels big enough to cover you! It is not so brand new and perfect that you are afraid of ruining something, it is well loved. Would have been handy to have hanging space in the back bedroom, I discovered the wardrobe in bunk room too late. Blackout curtain linings might be useful in mid summer - I used my eye mask. We arrived by train, so parking not a problem for us. I would highly recommend Driftwood House, and would certainly love to return.
