SITUATION
The village of Cley was formerly an old 18th Century port and still has many attractive brick and flint cottages alongside grander merchant’s houses.
Today it offers an eclectic range of shops on the doorstop including the Crab Pot Bookshop, Pinkfoot gallery, Cley smokehouse, Made in Cley, and the renowned Picnic Fayre delicatessen.
The village benefits from a wonderful church, two pubs and the well-known Wiveton Hall Café is within walking distance of the village.
This is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a Conservation Area, Cley has a fabulous shingle beach which is within easy walking distance, perfect for swimming or family picnics, and offers easy access to the saltmarshes and Blakeney Point with many ways of whiling away leisure hours including sailing, seal trips, cycling, golf, amazing coastal walking and fine beaches. The Cley marshes wildlife reserve dates from 1926 and makes this one of the very best places for spectacular birdwatching.
Just 4 miles to the south is the Georgian market town of Holt, renowned for its attractive street frontages and for its wide and eclectic range of independent shops. As well as Bakers and Larners department store, there are boutiques, cafes and bars, doctors’ surgery, dentist, and post office. Holt is also home to Gresham’s pre-prep, prep, and senior schools, founded in 1555.
There is a buzz in the air in North Norfolk and the surrounding area enjoys everything on offer from locally sourced butchers, fishmongers and farmers markets to artisan bakers, cool coffee shops, restaurants, delicatessens, up-market farm shops and art galleries.
