This is a diary of events for 2010
Due to circumstances beyond our control, there was a last minute change of venue
this year so, instead of the Maids Head Hotel at Norwich we had a new
location at the Links Country Parks Hotel
at West Runton just outside Cromer in North Norfolk.
Proudly independent, "The Links", considered by many to be the best golf,
leisure and conference hotel in North Norfolk is set in 35 acres of lightly
wooded coastal parkland, designated as an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The hotel accommodation has retained those high standards of personal service
long forgotten by many and offers a traditional warm welcome, a peaceful escape
from everyday pressures and the opportunity to relax and unwind in this
tranquil, unspoilt area of North Norfolk.
The itinerary remained exactly the same throughout the rest of our holiday.
Sandringham, Oxburgh Hall, Sheringham Park Gardens and Norwich Cathedral are just a few of the locations we visited during our packed five day itinerary.
