Norfolk Holiday

Went on a great holiday in Norfolk



We stayed at a lovely cottage in a converted barn with windmill at Walter Field Barn, Frettenham. We booked through English Country Cottages (http://tinyurl.com/386kz8u). Really nicely furnished and in a great location for touring the Broads. Frettenham is handily placed just outside Norwich and an easy daytrip to the north or east coast of Norfolk.


Took the kids fishing at Holly Farm Fishery at South Walsham (20 mins away) because being October we struggled to catch anything on the broads themselves. Had a great time at Holly Farm, plenty of nice carp for everyone and only £5 for me and £4 for the kids.
Note that I have the biggest one!
We also found a great pub near Frettenham - The White Horse @ Crostwick (http://www.whitehorsecrostwick.co.uk/). Great local beer and good proper pub food, about a mile from Frettenham.
