Breaks for Birdwatchers at Titchwell Manor Hotel

Just over ten minutes walk from RSPB Titchwell Marsh on North Norfolk’s unspoilt coast, Titchwell Manor Hotel, near Brancaster is offering two-night bird-watching breaks until Christmas at the special price of £175per room per night dinner, B&B for two sharing. The price includes a packed lunch, maps and RSPB information on the best places for birding so guests can spend a day out in the nature reserve.

Thousands of brent geese arrive at Titchwell Marsh during November along with wading birds escaping the Siberian and Arctic winters – their massive flocks are a wonderful sight as they swirl like huge clouds across the coast and out to sea. Vast numbers of redwings, fieldfares and finches also migrate to the UK from Scandinavia making their first landfall in Norfolk. The numbers increase during December when visitors can also be treated to spectacular sunsets across the frosty reedbeds. Guided walks are available on selected days.

Titchwell Manor, a former Victorian gentlemen’s club, is now a delightful fusion of modernity and traditional values with contemporary furnishings. It’s recently doubled in size with thirteen new bedrooms built around a courtyard herb garden; each room is named after one of the aromatic plants.
