Shop

Norfolk & Suffolk

IT’S NO SECRET that shopping is now one

of our favourite pastimes in the UK and for those who love it, then you’ve come to the right place.

From the city centres and shopping malls of Norwich and Ipswich, to the small and quirky independents of our bustling market towns, we’ve got great shopping in abundance.

www.norfolkandsuffolkattractions.co.uk

Norwich is one of the UK’s top shopping destinations, with two shopping malls, the largest six-day open-air market in the country and a wealth of independent retailers in the Norwich Lanes. Ipswich, King’s Lynn, Great Yarmouth and Bury St Edmunds are busy shopping centres too.

You’ll also find lots of art galleries and antique shops around Norfolk and Suffolk together with some dedicated crafts centres. Take home an original piece of art or an individual gift made in Norfolk or Suffolk. Don’t forget about the vibrant auction scene too.

Out of town, you’ll find many weekly markets, including Farmers’ Markets and Crafts Markets, in the towns across Norfolk and Suffolk. There are plenty of Farm Shops and rural Food Halls here too where local produce is celebrated and sold.

Lots of our attractions also have their own gift shops where you can buy toys, gifts, clothing, art and locally sourced produce from ranges that would rival those of much bigger, high-street stores. Allow plenty of time on your visit to have a good browse and indulge yourself with a bit of shopping.

Whatever you fancy, you’ll find it in Norfolk and Suffolk.

GREAT DAYS OUT IN NORFOLK & SUFFOLK 2018

Explore

Norfolk & Suffolk

THE NORFOLK AND SUFFOLK COASTLINE has miles and miles of amazing beaches, from the magnificent expanse of Holkham in North Norfolk, to Dunwich and Walberswick in Suffolk.

It’s a great area for walking and cycling, exploring our ‘deep history’, windsurfing, sailing and canoeing, or just relaxing and having fun with the family.

North Norfolk is the birdwatching capital of the UK, with the Suffolk coast hot on its heels! There are internationally important nature reserves all the way, including Snettisham, Titchwell, Cley, Minsmere and Orford Ness.

Also enjoy a boat trip from Morston or Blakeney to see the seals on Blakeney Point, now home to one the largest colony’s of grey seals in the UK.

E X P L O R E ...the path less travelled and get lost in Suffolk.
