Holkham — Best British Beach
Four miles of white-gold sand, with shells to collect and pine woods to explore.

Let's be fair — few stately homes can boast having their own beach, much less an award-
winning one. That said, Holkham's beautiful stretch of sand has claimed the award for Best
British Beach three years in a row from Coast Magazine. Holkham's pristine beach offers
extensive golden sands, windswept dunes, and a maze of creeks along a ten-mile stretch
known for shell hunting at low tide.
How beautiful is it? Gwyneth Paltrow's beach walk in the closing scenes of Shakespeare in
Love were filmed at low tide on Holkham Beach.
