Top 4 Things To Do in Norfolk in the Autumn
Autumn is a peaceful time in Norfolk when the pace slows and you can always find a steaming hot chocolate or a quiet place to sit and watch the turning colours of nature. Birdwatchers will have the chance to see thousands of birds as they migrate south from the Arctic, whilst crunching along the shingle of one of Norfolk’s beaches is a rosy-cheeked delight when hand-in-hand with your love.
1. Explore the Norfolk Broads
As the leaves turn golden, the Norfolk Broads become a picturesque wonderland during the autumn months. Couples on an autumn break in Norfolk can enjoy leisurely boat trips along the tranquil waterways, taking in the autumnal colours reflected in the calm waters. Many boat rental companies offer cosy, covered vessels perfect for cuddling up while you navigate the scenic routes.
2. Explore the Best Coastal Walks
A designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – the Norfolk Coast is made up of miles of wide, sandy beaches and pretty seaside towns. If you like coastal walks, the Norfolk Coast offers some of the most magical walking experiences in England. Holkham Beach is voted one of the best beaches in the UK and offers a different kind of beauty in autumn. The vast expanse of sand backed by pine forests provides a dramatic and romantic setting for long walks with your partner. The cooler weather and fewer crowds make it ideal for intimate picnics or watching spectacular sunsets

Just 33 miles away, our vibrant city promises a day out filled with culture, history, and retail therapy. Art enthusiasts can embark on a romantic journey through Norfolk’s creative centre.
Quaint coastal villages host independent galleries where local artists capture the region’s ethereal light and rugged beauty. In Norwich, the renowned Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts presents world-class exhibitions against the backdrop of autumn-clad university grounds. For a more intimate experience, couples can explore the hidden gems of rural Norfolk, where converted barns and historic buildings house eclectic artist studios. Soak in the culture before returning to your peaceful countryside sanctuary here at Congham Hall.
4. Take a Magical History Tour of Norwich
For couples seeking to immerse themselves in Norfolk’s rich history, the Castle Acre Heritage Trail offers a captivating journey through time. This circular walk, spanning approximately 4 miles, takes you through one of England’s best-preserved medieval planned settlements.
As you stroll hand-in-hand through the extensive ruins, imagine the lives of the monks who once called this tranquil spot home. The priory’s grounds are particularly beautiful in autumn, with fallen leaves creating a golden carpet underfoot.
