Discover Norfolk
Burnham Market
There are a thousand details that make the North Norfolk coast the most breath-stealing secret, Burnham Market being one.
Local Features
From the endless golden sands of Holkham Beach to the historical houses that pockmark the coastal countryside. But the undeniable diamond in the crown is Burnham Market, a vibrant village that takes you further from the city but closer to your soul as you explore it all at a relaxing pace. Boutique clothing shops and quaint little coffee stops, artisan bakeries, award-winning eateries, beautiful bookstores and all the delightful places in between.
There’s a reason Burnham market has a reputation for being one of Norfolk’s loveliest villages, not to mention a culinary destination. Delicious delis, postcard-perfect pubs, award-winning dining experiences and irresistible cafés; you’ll find all of it right here, beautifully clustered around a village green that’s bookended by pretty churches. There really is nowhere quite like it.
The History of Burnham Market
The glimmering centrepiece of the seven Burnhams (only true locals can name them all without hesitation), the history here is almost palpable. You can feel it in the pub names dedicated to the local legend that is Admiral Nelson and you can see it in the age-old houses that line the streets, many of them dating back to the 16th Century. Yes, the reasons why Burnham Market is so treasured by so many, but it’s the historical aesthetic that gives this Georgian Town its extraordinary charm.
