Hunstanton

I have spent three separate enjoyable times at Hunstanston. Dont expect blue seas or possible fantastic blue skies even in summer, but the best thing about the place is its honesty. If you, like i, are sick of the commercial touristy resorts, like great yarmouth blackpool, and want something a little bit more sincere then this is the place to come.

Much has been done in recent years to try to preserve the Victorian look of the area from the beach towards the ...  Read the complete review

For many of us this year for whatever reason, be it credit crunch, rising air faires, environmental consciousness or just a love of a kiss me quick hats and a stick of rock, our holidays will be spent within these shores. Many of you may have favourite places for a variety of different reasons, Bude in Cornwall happens to be mine but coming a close second is Hunstanton in Norfolk. Situated in northern side of Norfolk, facing the wash about 15 minutes drive from the metropolis that is Kings Lynn, it has the distinct honour of being the only east coast town that has westerly sea views and therefore longer sunsets than anywhere else on the East Coast and most ...  Read the complete review
