Join our next Residential Trip in 2026
Heritage Travel will be whisking us off to Norfolk from Monday 27th April - Friday 1st May.
We will be based in Norwich for 4 nights at the four-star centrally located Maids Head Hotel.
The wide open spaces of present-day East Anglia give little indication of the region’s rich past, a time when Norfolk was one of England’s most densely populated and wealthiest areas. During the Middle Ages, a vibrant economy based on trade and farming resulted in the creation of beautiful churches and fine buildings in the towns. Wealth and power went hand in hand as the centuries passed, and politics also loomed large in East Anglia. For those at the top of the political tree, in many cases men from merchant backgrounds, the system of patronage enabled the building of some of the country’s most magnificent country houses, each with its glorious architectural embellishments and splendid art collections.
Here are some of the highlights of this visit. On our way to Norwich, we will visit Flatford Mill. During our stay, we will have a guided tour of Norwich Cathedral, a visit to Sandringham, also a visit to Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham Hall.
We will also have a boat trip and we will board a steam train! A visit to Ely Cathedral and more
