A walk through the ancient breckland of the Peddars Way Roman road and along the beautiful east coast.
From £420 per person
The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path National Trail combines two contrasting paths. The Peddars Way follows the line of a Roman road through pleasant countryside. It enjoys a mix of country lanes, footpaths and tracks through a varied landscape of open heath, woodland, rich farmland and pretty villages.
As the trail reaches the coast, the Norfolk Coast Path takes over, leading the way along a shoreline famed for its remoteness and wild beauty. Part of the England Coast Path, the walk passes through a diverse landscape of sandy beaches, reed beds, tidal inlets and unspoilt villages. Magnificent stately homes, medieval castles and the seal colonies at Blakeney Point all add to the charm of this scenic trail.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
From £420 per person
This short break along the Norfolk Coast Path is a single-centre holiday taking in some of the most unspoilt coastline in England. Beginning in the Victorian seaside resort of Brancaster, the trail encounters marshland, tidal creeks, sandy beaches and pine forests on its way to Wells-Next-The-Sea, a beautiful seaside resort.
The walk then continues along the coastline and through saltmarshes frequented by redshank, shelduck and brent geese. It then arrives at the holiday’s end in the village of Blakeney, offering the perfect chance to spot grey seals from Blakeney Point.

This itinerary lists our preferred overnight stops for this tour. Sometimes there may be a shortage of available accommodation in a preferred location, in which case we will transfer you from the trail to your accommodation and back again at no extra charge. Overnight stops marked with a (T) will always require transfers as standard.
Overnight stops marked with an (L) have very limited accommodation, and therefore more often than not will also require a transfer, particularly on bank holidays and weekends. We will use non-transfer accommodation wherever possible.
The daily mileages quoted are average trail miles only and do not include the distance from the trail to your accommodation. We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation in most cases; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard if practical. A very limited number of stops will require you to travel on foot up to two miles off the trail, however these instances will be clearly communicated to you if applicable.
Further transfers may also be required due to some accommodations having a two-night minimum booking policy, especially at weekends.
