About Great Yarmouth

Two piers stretch into the North Sea like Victorian arms welcoming the tide. Great Yarmouth might be Norfolk's most famous seaside resort, but scratch beneath the candy floss surface and you'll find proper character alongside the traditional bucket-and-spade appeal.

The town wears its heritage proudly - those medieval Rows (narrow alleyways) still thread between buildings, while the massive walls that once protected this Cinque Port still stand. But let's be honest: most visitors come for the beach and the classic seaside thrills. The Golden Mile delivers exactly what it promises, though the arcades can feel a bit much if you're seeking tranquillity.

Venture beyond the seafront and the surrounding countryside offers lovely surprises. Somerleyton Hall and Gardens provides a dose of Victorian grandeur just a short drive away, while Burgh Castle Roman Site reminds you that people have been drawn to this corner of Norfolk for centuries. The Broads are practically on your doorstep - Somerleyton Marina makes a good starting point if you fancy a boat trip.

Getting here couldn't be easier. The A47 runs straight into town, and there's a proper railway station with direct services from Norwich and London. Berney Arms station, one of Britain's most remote stops, sits nearby if you're collecting railway oddities.

Staying at one of the holiday parks scattered around the area makes perfect sense. You get the best of both worlds - easy access to Yarmouth's attractions when you want the seaside buzz, plus peaceful countryside bases like Clippesby Hall when you need to escape the crowds. The Norfolk Broads, with their windmills and waterways, are right there waiting to be explored.
