Welcome to Knapton Village’s website
Perched 43m above sea level on a hill with views of the sea, bordered by farmer’s fields and long established woodland, criss-crossed by “Quiet Lanes” and well trodden footpaths, basking in the fresh air from the North Norfolk coast, Knapton is a little piece of heaven tucked away in an designated area of outstanding beauty.
We’re just three miles from the market town of North Walsham with it’s railway station and shops, eight miles from the seaside resort of Cromer with it’s pier, theatre and famous crab industry and twenty miles NE of the beautiful cathedral city of Norwich.
And our sleepy little village is just a mile or two from the gorgeous sandy beaches at Mundesley, Trimingham, Overstrand, Bacton and Walcott…
We are surrounded by beautiful, country Quiet Lanes weaving their way through our parish…
