The Hoste Arms in Burnham Market has been ranked among the best pubs that "have stood the test of time" in a list compiled by the Daily Mail.
The 17th-century coaching inn was praised for its "traditional charm", "historic character" and "commitment to serving the very best local produce". The pub's enduring appeal of centuries-old inns was highlighted as well as the pub being just moments from the wide sandy beaches of the north Norfolk coast.
The Times also recently reviewed The Hoste Arms, describing it as "a wonderfully pubby pub" with "proper belt-loosening portions" of food. Find out more and plan your visit here:

The pretty north Norfolk village of Walsingham has been named (in a list by StarInsider) among Europe's holiest places. With a history stretching back nearly a millennium, Walsingham has been ranked among Europe's holiest places alongside the Vatican City.

In 1061, local noblewoman Richeldis de Faverches experienced a vision of the Virgin Mary, who instructed her to build a replica of the Holy House of Nazareth. The shrine that followed transformed Walsingham into one of medieval Europe's most important pilgrimage destinations, attracting1,000s of worshippers including Henry III and Henry VIII.

Today, in Walsingham village, you can see many fine 14th and 15th century buildings. There are shops to explore in the pretty streets, including tea rooms, Walsingham Farms Shop, art galleries, artisans and cafes. You can also hop onto the Wells & Walsingham Light Railway (the longest 10-and-a-quarter inch narrow-gauge steam railway in the world) and take a half hour trip to Wells-next-the-Sea through beautiful countryside.
