LOCATION
The tiny village of Horsey is located on the easternmost edge of the Broads,
reaching down to the dunes that border the miles of unspoiled beach. The
Old Chapel lies one mile north of Horsey Mill, in an Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty, surrounded by National Trust land and within a few minutes
walk of both the beach and the Broads. The setting is tranquil: the
sunrises and sunsets
are a delight!

WALKS
You do not need to get into your car to experience the North Norfolk countryside,
Broads and beaches! Directly from The Old Chapel you can enjoy a circular
walk that embraces open countryside, reed beds, Brograve Mill, Horsey
Mere, dunes and beach, where seals can often be observed at close quarters.

BIRDS
There is abundant bird life all around The Old Chapel. Marsh Harriers
are a common sight, and an evening stroll is often enhanced by the presence
of a Barn Owl. Winter is the time to see the large flocks of Pink-footed
Geese but, perhaps most exciting of all is the sight and sound of the
resident Crane population - it is not unusual to see a group of Cranes
feeding within a few hundred yards of The Old Chapel!

DIRECTIONS
The Old Chapel is on the B1159 coast road, approximately

at The Old Chapel, where a warm welcome awaits.
