Good Afternoon,

As winter fades, Norfolk bursts into life, offering you a spectacular array of experiences. From March to May, the county transforms into a landscape teeming with activity and natural beauty.

Bluebells carpet the woodlands, creating breathtaking scenes at Foxley Wood, Blickling Hall, and Sheringham Park. These incredible sights provide a stunning backdrop for both walks and photography enthusiasts!

The reserve's colour-coded walks and bird hides offer excellent opportunities for wildlife spotting.

For families, spring brings exciting Easter egg hunts at National Trust properties like Blickling Hall, Felbrigg Hall, and Oxburgh Hall. These events combine outdoor fun with the chance to explore Norfolk's grand estates.

Sandringham House and Sheringham Park both have incredible displays of rhododendrons and azaleas. These locations also offer perfect settings for walks and.

Spring also marks the return of Norfolk's festivals. The Norfolk & Norwich Festival, one of the UK's oldest and largest multi-art events, fills the county with theatre, music, and art for 17 days in May. The Crab & Lobster Festival in Sheringham and Cromer celebrates the region's fishing heritage with local produce, cookery demonstrations, and lively entertainment.
