This is King Charles III’s Norfolk home, and has been owned by the monarch for over a century. Located just north of Kings Lynn, it is surrounded by gorgeous countryside with lots of walking opportunities within the grounds.

It is a nice place to spend a few hours. Follow waymarked trails by foot, by bike or take your dog around Sandringham woodland and parkland.

There is also an orienteering trail available.

There is a lovely play area for children within the parkland. Within the house you can explore some of the ground floor rooms used by the Royal family when in residence, and see items that have been given as gifts when on state visits.

There is even an old fashioned fire engine in the little museum.

Restaurant and shops in the Courtyard complex separate from Sandringham House.

Children’s playground near the Courtyard complex.
