Norfolk by Laurence Mitchell
Slow Norfolk, although selective, includes the whole of Norfolk from Great Yarmouth and the Broads to the east to the Fens of the far west, from the iconic North Norfolk coast to the Breckland region to the south. The Norfolk landscape is far more variable than many imagine and not quite as flat as it is usually reputed to be. The North Norfolk coast, considered to be one of the most beautiful stretches in England, is also a hugely important habitat for wildlife especially migrating birds. The interior of the county tends to be more overlooked yet also much to offer, especially in terms of landscape, historic monuments and characterful market towns. The county has a rich mix of architectural variety, with numerous country houses, medieval churches, Roman forts and Norman castles. The county capital Norwich is an important centre for art and culture, with its acclaimed Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts and the annual, highly rated Norwich and Norfolk Festival.
'Eye-opening and wonderful' The Sunday Times Magazine Slow Travel Norfolk is a celebration of the county as well as a guidebookit is a personal guide, peppered with practical information, and ranges from the Fens to the Broads and the coast to the city Norfolk Magazine 'With a rich level of local detail, these get under the skin of Britain's most relaxing spots.'
