Hillside Shire Horse Sanctuary
Overview
Come and see the heavy horses, ponies and donkeys as well as sheep, pigs, rabbits, ducks, hens, goats and many more rescued animals in their home in the beautiful north Norfolk countryside. Visit the museum and relive the farming days of yesteryear surrounded by an extensive collection of carts, wagons and farm machinery. There's lots of space for children to play in the activity areas. Try 'animal friendly' refreshments in the cafe and take home a souvenir from the gift shop. You may even 'adopt' a rescued animal.

About the area
The North Norfolk Coast is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and probably the finest of its kind in Europe. Here you’ll find a string of quaint villages and small towns – Holkham, Wells-next-the-Sea and Cley next the Sea are 21st-century favourites, while Sheringham and Cromer are classic examples of a good old-fashioned seaside resort where grand Victorian hotels look out to sea.
