Days out worth the detour

Attractions in the East of England

Norfolk and Suffolk are full of places that turn an ordinary day into something properly memorable, from historic houses and castles to museums, gardens and experiences that bring local stories to life. You’ll find a mix of well-known favourites and smaller discoveries, with plenty to suit different ages, interests and seasons.

Many attractions offer plenty to explore beyond the main highlights, with grounds, trails and changing displays that make it easy to linger, return and keep finding something new.
