GETTING THERE

Cromer is 20 miles north of Norwich by the A140/A149; the 44 bus runs regularly between the two every day of the week. The CH5 Coasthoppe­r bus links the two ends of the route at Cromer and Trimingham. Find both timetables at www.sanderscoa­ches.com.

WHERE TO STAY

In Cromer, the boutique luxury, central location, homebaked cakes, smoked salmon breakfast (or a full English), and brilliant hosts make Ogilvy House (01263 511170, www.ogilvyhous­ecromer.co.uk) a place people return to again and again. Doubles from £78. In Overstrand, you can stay at the place that inspired Clement Scott to write of his Poppyland, which is now the gorgeous Mill House B&B ( 01263 576871, www.en-gb.facebook.com/pg/ MillHouseB­edandBreak­fast).

WHERE TO EAT

Plenty of fish and chip shops in Cromer, including No1 Cromer (01263 512316, www.no1cromer.com), where Michelin-starred owner Galton Blackiston has garnered accolades for a menu heavy with local produce. Takeaway downstairs (cod and chips £12), restaurant upstairs. In Mundesley, the The Corner House café is good for panini and sumptuous cake and if you get to Happisburg­h, don’t miss Burger at the Beach ( www.facebook.com/ pg/burgersatt­hebeach) a merry van with outside seating, serving homemade bakes, and steak, crab, or lentil and walnut burgers.
