Cromer
Cromer town’s most distinguished landmark has to be its fine 14th-century church, which stands guardian over the town. The enhancement of Cromer has been carefully watched over and has progressed on the right lines so that none of its original beauty has been destroyed.
A town renowned for its history of the sea, fishing and crabs; some of Cromer’s finest accommodation can be found offering splendid early morning views of the fishermen bringing their catches ashore or evening views of the sun slipping into the sea at sunset.
With new renovation work having taken place on the Pier and Pavilion Theatre during the winter of 2003/04, a visit to see the famous end-of-the pier show is a must.
Further indoor entertainment can be found at the Regal Cinema in Han’s place. A four-screen cinema showing all the latest films.
Cromer lies in a key position on the Norfolk coast, for when the North Sea rides high, it is Cromer’s Lighthouse that flashes out a guiding beam and its famous lifeboat that is ready to answer any calls of distress. The lifeboat is housed at the end of the pier and can be visited all year from 10am - 4pm
A gentle walk along the cliffs will bring you to the Golf Course and Cromer Lighthouse. Continue further along this path and you will eventually come to the delightful village of Overstrand.
If you wish to see Cromer at its liveliest then a visit during Carnival week is a must. For a whole week there are activities organised around the town and on the cliff top and you can be sure of finding something to suit every member of the family.
