Bacton-on-Sea Holidays

Take a UK holiday in Norfolk and enjoy the golden sands at Bacton-on-Sea. Get out your buckets and spades, treat yourself to an ice cream and enjoy a traditional UK seaside holiday. If the weather turns, try Cromer Museum, home of the Old Cromer Gallery that has a massive archive of ancient photographs depicting Cromer's history, including its 'scandalous' mixed bathing. See the amazing local fossils in the Geology Gallery and find out why Cromer has such geological significance. You can discover the West Runton elephant, too, Britain's oldest and most complete elephant fossil. On your Bacton-on-Sea holidays, try to visit Felbrigg Hall, a lovely house in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This is one of the finest 17th-century houses in the UK, with grand tour paintings, gothic library, working walled garden and octagonal Dovecote. Another 17th-century house, Blickling Hall, is also worth a visit for its fine collections of furniture, pictures and tapestries, and lovely walkable gardens.

If you enjoy bucket-and-spade holidays, low-cost UK holidays in Bacton-on-Sea will be for you. But Norfolk has much more to offer. How about Banham Zoo? This is a great family day out on your Bacton-on-Sea holidays, where you can see big cats, birds, elephants and more cuddly animals in a farm barn. For a wilder time, try Extreeme Adventure, and see Norfolk's beautiful woods from high up on swinging platforms, tightropes and a zip wire. Take a trip, too, on the Mid-Norfolk Railway, Norfolk's longest heritage railway, which sometimes features steam trains and on which Father Christmas can be greeted in winter.
