Fakenham Holiday Cottages
Fakenham lies ten miles from the north Norfolk coast and is a traditional market town, sitting between the River Wensum and the beautiful countryside. Its market dates back to the year 1250 and historically was an agricultural and cattle fair. Today, though, its focus is local produce that’s a little more prepared and ready-to-eat. Holiday cottages in Fakenham are the ideal location from which to explore the pretty corner of the county that is north Norfolk.
Printing was another of Fakenham’s major industries and you can see printing blocks marking this heritage set on the roads, paths and buildings throughout the town. The Fakenham Museum of Local History documents this rich past and makes for a great couple of hours of learning about the region. The whole town sits on the National Cycle Network and the ground is fairly gentle for walkers and cyclists of all abilities. Fakenham Racecourse is considered one of the finest rural national hunt courses in the UK and holds several meets a year, with its most popular annually on Boxing Day.
