Heacham Cottages
Heacham can be found on Norfolk's north-west coast. It became a popular seaside resort during Victorian times thanks to the introduction of railways. Its North and South Beaches still attract holiday-makers and are home to cocklers, and fisherman who harvest the local waters. Heacham cottages are available from Cottages 4 You. Details are provided below.
Heacham has strong connections with Indian princess, Pocahontas who married local gentlemen and explorer Sir John Rolfe of Heacham Hall; the village sign and a tablet in St Mary the Virgin Church memorialises her. Other local attractions include The Queen's country residence, Sandringham Estate and a collection of nature reserves at Holme and Snettisham.
The afore mentioned church St Mary is the oldest building in Heacham and dates back to Norman times. Its bell is the oldest in East Anglia and can be traced back to the 1100s. Lavender is a major industry around these parts of Norfolk with a number of fields around the time. They are picked during the summer months of July and early August and then stored nearby before being sold and exported all over the world.
there are a number of public houses found within the town with some playing host to beer festivals during holidays. There is also a good range of shops as well as a large market at nearby Burnham. If you're looking to rent Heacham cottages then our selection of self-catering properties may be suitable.
