Shopping

Burnham Market
Recently described as the“Chelsea of the North Norfolk Coast”with its fine Georgian houses and chic shops, the local village of Burnham Market is indeed worth a visit.

A wide variety of businesses offer everything from books, gifts, crafts, antiques and art to millinery, high class fashion, a hairdressers and a beauty salon. A bakery, delicatessen, butchers and fishmongers offer a wide selection of the more essential items on a shopper's list. The village has a Post Office and branches of National Westminster Bank and Barclays Bank. It also boasts the only petrol station between Holkham and Fakenham.

Fakenham
Better known for its famous racecourse and position in a recent survey as being the seventh most desirable town in the UK in which to live. The market place springs to life every Thursday with the hustle and bustle of various stalls selling a wide range of items. On the outskirts of Fakenham, you will find the inevitable superstores for your DIY, food shopping and gardening requirements. Within the town centre there is a variety of shops catering for most needs. Browse round the small antique shops, clothing stores, boutiques, shoe shops, chemists, butchers, bakers and grocers and many more. A Post Office and branches of HSBC, National Westminster, Lloyds, Barclays, Norwich&Peterborough and Alliance&Leicester are here.

Holt
In 1708, the town of Holt was badly destroyed by fire. The town was rebuilt with many of the fine Georgian buildings, which are in evidence today. The main street, with its lanes and yards radiating from it, has a wide selection of shops for the visitor. Choose from the various galleries, bookshops selling old, second-hand and out of print books, or try the antiques and bric-a-brac shops. Clothes shops are plentiful, ranging from classic and casual men's and ladies fashions, outdoor clothing to expensive boutiques offering original designs and ranges. On the food side, Holt again has much to offer with high-class delicatessen and food shops and restaurants. Holt has branches of Barclays, Lloyds and HSBC banks.

Norwich
Considered to be the capital of East Anglia and noted for its links with banking, insurance, brewing, printing, shoe making and mustard, Norwich is a fine city. With its cathedral and castle within walking distance of the main shopping areas, it offers a variety for the visitor. The shops and large department stores are too numerous to mention, but cater for every need. The massive Castle Mall complex enables visitors to shop completely“under one roof”. In contrast, a visit to the open-air market, the largest permanent in England with 200 stalls is a must. Escape the hustle and bustle of the main shopping areas and visit the meandering cobbled alleyways of Elm Hill or the eateries in Tombland. If traveling by car, you will find short and long stay car parks signposted. Or consider one of the three Park and Ride services operating from Norwich Airport , Norfolk Showground and Harford Bridge .

The town was rebuilt with many of the fine Georgian buildings, which are in evidence today. The main street, with its lanes and yards radiating from it, has a wide selection of shops for the visitor. Choose from the various galleries, bookshops selling old, second-hand and out of print books, or try the antiques and bric-a-brac shops. Clothes shops are plentiful, ranging from classic and casual men's and ladies fashions, outdoor clothing to expensive boutiques offering original designs and ranges. On the food side, Holt again has much to offer with high-class delicatessen and food shops and restaurants. Holt has branches of Barclays, Lloyds and HSBC banks. Norwich Considered to be the capital of East Anglia and noted for its links with banking, insurance, brewing, printing, shoe making and mustard, Norwich is a fine city. With its cathedral and castle within walking distance of the main shopping areas, it offers a variety for the visitor. The shops and large department stores are too numerous to mention, but cater for every need. The massive Castle Mall complex enables visitors to shop completely“under one roof”. In contrast, a visit to the open-air market, the largest permanent in England with 200 stalls is a must. Escape the hustle and bustle of the main shopping areas and visit the meandering cobbled alleyways of Elm Hill or the eateries in Tombland.
