Short route for an acoustic and emtb hardtail to tryout bags. Start anywhere in the thorpe area on the way to woodbastwick Fur and feathers pub for a beer. Mainly cycle ways with farm double track between Honeycombe and salhouse road. Rode down to the Salhouse Broad and back.

Simple food in a lovely setting. Not gourmet but not trying to be.

Lovely views from a beautiful church. The narrow spiral stairs and ladders aren’t suitable for very small children or those with mobility issues.

Sometimes referred to as the 'Cathedral of the Broads', St Helen's Church commands a fine position overlooking the Bure Valley. It's possible to ascend to the top of its almost 100-foot (30 m) high tower to gain a magnificent viewpoint across the surrounding countryside. A patchwork of verdant fields and waterways stretches away, with most of the northern rivers and broads visible on a clear day.

One of Norfolk's many ruined churches. Seems surprisingly common for the tower to be the only thing left.

The home of the famed Woodforde's brewery, with an immaculate pub and beer garden next door.
