Half Term Holiday Fun In North Norfolk
October 1st, 2011 | 
Author: The kids have just gone back to school and parents all over the country are breathing a collective sigh of relief. But half-term is only a few weeks away and so it’s a good idea to have some plans in place before the children start wondering what they’re going to do during their next stretch of time off.
If you haven’t already made plans and East Anglia is within your reach, I’d recommend a weekend break Norfolk way, or indeed, if you can afford the time, the whole half-term. North Norfolk hotels always fill up with families during the school holidays, but it’s easy to see why, as there’s so much to do in this part of the world, from cycling, bird-watching and walking to simply pottering around the shops.

Norfolk Apartment Rental
Is Norfolk Virginia Right for Me?
The first thing to ask yourself when considering a move to Norfolk Virginia is whether the area is right for you and your family’s needs. If you’re looking for something near military bases, you’re not going to do any better. But this article is going to focus on downtown Norfolk and the Ghent area rather than Little Creek and other sections of Norfolk. Norfolk and the Ghent area offer character and urban lifestyle. Since we are talking about renting an apartment, a yard will not be in your future. Consider this if you’re planning on renting something for the family. If you’re single, a young couple or your children are already grown up, renting an apartment in downtown Norfolk is a great way to experience urban living.

Great Yarmouth Is Not to Be Missed on a Norfolk Broads Canal Boat Holiday
When taking a Norfolk Broads canal boat holiday, don’t miss a visit to the resort of Great Yarmouth. While the town is famed as a seaside location popular with families looking for a typical British holiday, there’s plenty more to the ancient area.
Taking a Norfolk boat holiday can be a great way of relaxing on a cost-effective break and taking in various towns and cities in one trip. If you’re looking to get close to nature, canal boat hire on the broads is a popular option, as the region is a protected wetland home to all sorts of flora and fauna.
With more than 125 miles of navigable waterways to cover, you’ll have a great choice of areas to explore when you opt for UK boat hire, including the rivers Bure, Ant, Thurne, Yare, Chet and Waveney when you take a break in the area.
