Parklands Bungalows
Parklands is the perfect location to enjoy a holiday in Norfolk. It's within easy reach of quiet unspoilt sandy beaches where you can walk for miles enjoying the sea air and beautiful scenery, and busier holiday beaches. Yet it is just out of the area of holiday camps, chalets and the amusements. Great Yarmouth is just a ten minute drive away. The Broads are right on your doorstep for boating and fishing.
You can hire boats and fish from the riverbanks at Martham, three miles away. Potter Heigham Bridge is six miles, a favourite for boat hire, Horning and Wroxham are within easy reach. The fine city of Norwich is only 20 miles away and the rest of North Norfolk is within easy reach for an ideal day out in your car, over quiet country lanes all around the coastline. It is a completely unspoilt part of the country.
Parklands has special appeal - 14 large detached bungalows, generously spaced, set in four acres of beautiful quiet parkland away from traffic noise.
