My top 4 locations to create video content in Norfolk
Below is a very small section of beautiful places in Norfolk that will work for any type of video productions, from corporate shoots, training films to documentaries.
North Norfolk
North Norfolk has 45 miles of picturesque coastline offering some of the most stunning views in England. One of which is the town of Cromer, with it’s Pier that is a Grade II listed seaside pier.
If you head inland to the countryside you will discover that there are many stunning Stately Homes. Two remarkables ones are Holkhall Hall and Houghton Hall. These both will offer a uniquely beautiful location for filming. I have had the pleasure of filming at both these location with the TV series ‘The stately Homes of Norfolk’.
Norwich
Norwich is well known for its medieval buildings, with the Guildhall, Dragons Hall, Norwich Castle – which was Royal palace and the city prison – along with the City Walls. All of these are within easy walking distances of each other.
The city has numerous public parks from Chapelfield Gardens in the city centre to Earlham Park and Eaton park on the outskirts.
Great Yarmouth
Heading back to the coast we find Great Yarmouth, a traditional location for family holidays.
Not only does it have With 15 miles of smooth, sandy beaches with two seaside piers on the Golden Mile, it also rich is heritage with Burgh Castle – the best preserved Roman monuments in East Anglia – only a short drive away.
Norfolk Broads
This is a network of rivers and lakes that not only covers Norfolk, but also its neighbouring county suffolk. There are many boat hire companies available, one of the largest is Richardsons.
I have filmed on the Norfolk Broads many times, and each time I capture something unique for my clients.
Getting to Norfolk.

Our railway network directly connects with London, offering a London to Norwich in just 90 minutes.
