Upper Sheringham Guided Picture Tour

Sheringham Park is one of the finest examples of Humphry Repton's garden designs (now owned by the National Trust). There are miles of fabulous scenic countryside paths, with gazebos and viewing towers offering fantastic coastal vistas. There is a fabulous display of rhododendrons and azaleas in late spring, but all year round you can see mature woodlands, with rare trees and shrubs. There is a visitors centre and shop (open seasonal). Dogs are allowed on a lead. |
