Five Top Things to Do in North Norfolk This Autumn

Autumn in North Norfolk is such a special time, full of crisp air, golden landscapes, and moments that bring friends and families together. Stay with us at Sedgeford Hall, your base for group self-catering stays, and explore the best of Norfolk at this magical time of year.

1. Spot Migrating Wildlife and Birds

The North Norfolk coast and surrounding marshes come alive during migration season. Head to Blakeney National Nature Reserve or nearby Cley Marshes to see flocks of waders and wildfowl, ideal for birdwatching or simply soaking up that untamed autumn coastal charm.

2. Quieter Coastal Walks

Autumn’s cooler months make now the perfect time to explore our shoreline at your own pace. Try the scenic stretch from Holme Dunes to Thornham or board the Coasthopper bus and take in the views on a section of the Norfolk Coast Path.

3. Colourful Woodland Walks

For dramatic autumn foliage and tranquil woodland paths, visit nearby Sandringham Estate or the stroll around our very own estate. Both offer peaceful routes ablaze with russet hues, perfect for a reflective autumn stroll.

4. Pumpkin Picking & Seasonal Fun

Nothing says autumn like pumpkin picking. Head to family-run Pensthorpe Pumpkin Festival near Fakenham, perfect for PYO pumpkins, seasonal vibes, and a fun day out with friends or family.

5. Cosy Up in a Pub

After your day’s adventures, there’s nothing better than settling by a crackling fire with hearty seasonal dishes and a warming drink. Try The Gin Trap, Ringstead, or Coach & Horses, Dersingham for relaxed pub fare with a coastal twist, just what every autumn evening calls for.
