Picnic baskets at the ready because there’s nothing better on a warm afternoon than laying down a picnic blanket and enjoying some homemade food in a picture-perfect Norfolk spot
The stunning Blickling Estate is a popular spot for walking, cycling or just enjoying the atmosphere as you immerse yourself in nature. You can truly get lost with 950 acres of wood and parkland which is less than a quarter of the huge 4500 acres that make up the whole estate.
Pick a private place under an old oak tree and while the hours away with good food and company – or go it alone and embrace the tranquillity. Make sure not to miss the secret Mausoleum on your walk.

At Euronews Travel, we’re firm believers that every European country has something special to offer in the way of road trips. Being able to drive from coastlines to cities in a matter of hours is an exclusive benefit of the European experience. It’s one that isn’t taken advantage of nearly enough by a lot of us.
To paraphrase an old maxim - the journey is just as important as the destination, and being able to span the breadth of entire countries in just a few hours by car is ideal means of getting the best of both.
