North Norfolk coast named one of UK's best-kept secrets
The north Norfolk coastline has been named one of the UK's most underrated spots to visit in 2025.
Compiled by the BBC Good Food Guide, the list says that the stretch of coastline from The Wash in the west to Sea Palling in the east is the country's best-kept secret for nature lovers.
The area is rich in conservation sites, nature reserves and expansive sandy beaches, making it the top spot for those looking to enjoy the outdoors.

Readers are then directed to Cromer "for the must-try local speciality, Cromer crab" and for some fish and chips at the award-winning No. 1 Cromer.
Meadowsweet in Holt is recommended as a spot for some food (Image: Alice Surridge) Other recommendations from BBC Good Food include a meal at the Michelin-starred Morston Hall and Meadowsweet in Holt.
Holt Sunday Market is a must, where visitors are encouraged to try wine from Cobble Hill Wine and Sri Lankan dishes from Amma's Kitchen.
Fife in Scotland and Lewes in East Sussex also made the list.
