Holkham

Holkham Hall is one of the principal Palladian houses of England, built for an ancestor of Thomas William Coke, agricultural innovator and later First Earl of Leicester of Holkham. The hall is still the home of the current Earl and is surrounded by an attractive park.

Lady Anne's Drive, a toll road owned by the Holkham estate, crosses the reclaimed salt marshes to Holkham Gap. From here, an uninterrupted sandy beach runs both ways to Wells and Burnham Overy Staithe. The marshes are important for their wintering population of pink-footed geese, and have been designated a National Nature Reserve.
