Sheringham

Sheringham is a delightful seaside town in Norfolk, England, famous for its heritage steam railway The Poppy Line which runs along the coast through the clifftop golf course to Kelling Heath and on to Georgian market town Holt. Sheringham is the terminus of the Bittern Line from Norwich.

The town has a lovely main thoroughfare full of independent shops and places to eat and drink and including the charming Little Theatre. Learn to stand up paddleboard here, spend time on the beach, or visit National Trust Sheringham Park which has lovely coastal views.
