Location Map
Local Accommodation
The North Norfolk Railway offers a 10.5 mile round trip by steam train (vintage diesel trains on some journeys) through a delightful area of North Norfolk designated as being of outstanding natural beauty.

North Norfolk’s Poppy Line steam railway offers spectacular views as it runs from Sheringham along the coast to Weybourne and up through the heathland to Holt. The Sunday Times named it as Britain’s best full-size heritage railway trip.
There are steam trains daily from April to the end of October, plus Santa Specials in December and weekend trains in March. All day hop-on, hop-off Rover tickets make this a big value day out. The three stations are beautifully restored Victorian gems, and Holt station has a great museum. Refreshments at all stations, buffet and gift shop at Sheringham. See website for times, dining trains and special events.
