Norfolk Broads/Gt. Yarmouth
We are thinking of visiting Norfolk Broads and Gt. Yarmouth mid November and wondered if we should stay 1 or 2 nights.
I realise it is a winter month but we are doing a drive around east coast before going to Dorset for winter. |

Like poppy girl said they have a great museum and 2 good sized malls. Plus lots of coffee shops and book stores. Good B&B's as well. lots of pubs. :thumbsup: |
Re: Norfolk Broads/Gt. Yarmouth
Norwich is worth a visit, but as its relatively isolated I wouldnt want to drive there, see a few things and drive back again in a hurry, take your time (its the norfolk way:) )
"Great" Yarmouth however was named purely for ironic effect in my opinion:D |
Re: Norfolk Broads/Gt. Yarmouth
As hubby said yesterday a nuclear bomb, a code and a button is what Gt Yarmouth needs.. And yes I do live in Norwich, but do agree that Gt yarm is dismal at the best of times, personally we prefer the north norfolk coast, but again any of these places arent at their optimal in winter, but you do get some decent days in November. And there are always plenty of places to see in Norwich itself, Elm Hill is worth a wander too. Hope that helps.

Re: Norfolk Broads/Gt. Yarmouth
Lots of people like Gt Yarmouth for a cheesey holiday and what's wrong with that, such bloddy snobs on here at times. My kid's have been to a few places in the world that a lot of adults haven't and ask them where they want to holiday and suprise suprise they will tell you Hemsby / Gt Yarmouth. O.K it is not for everyone but it suits some.
