I love Great Yarmouth in all its funfair, ice-cream, sticks-of-rock, road train, amusement arcades, water gardens, circus, chippy chips, end-of-the-pier glory.
My family’s favourite Norfolk seaside town, Yarmouth is where we head if we want to have fun: the Hippodrome Circus, the Pleasure Beach, The Imperial Hotel, doughnuts on the prom, rides in horse and carts. The town is an essential part of every summer.
My husband - who started his career as a chef in Yarmouth and who loves it even more than I do – and I have become the town’s biggest cheerleaders and so it is with great (Great?) pleasure I present some must-dos for visitors with a little help from Visit Yarmouth.
