Suffield Common
The tiny village of Suffield Common is set in the \'Bermuda Triangle\' of North Norfolk. The real charm is it's remoteness amongst farmland and winding roads and is ideal for cycling and walking with many rural footpaths and quiet lanes in close proximity. The Medieval church of St Margaret is also remote and features a very beautiful rood screen. If you looking for a \'Local\' the closest is the C17th Crown in Banningham just 2 miles away serving home cooked food daily. The country roads here are perfect for bike riding and if you fancy a day out on the Norfolk Broads, Wroxham is just 14 miles away. If you wish to head for the coast there are a choice of beaches within a 10 minute drive. Try Cromer, Walcott and Mundesley. The nearest towns are North Walsham 3.5 miles and Alysham 5 miles away. For the city life, great shopping, eating and theatre, Norwich is only 17 miles away. Kett Country Cottages have a beautiful house in Suffield and you could book others close by too.
