By train
In addition to the Bittern Line which is part of the National Rail network detailed above, The Poppy Line is the name of the preserved railway which is run by the North Norfolk Railway (http://www.nnrailway.co.uk/) from Holt to Sheringham, where the Poppy Line station is just a short walk from the National Rail station for services to Norwich. The train station in Holt is a couple of miles from the town center, but there is a Horse drawn cart from the town to the station called the Holt Flyer. Depending on the season, Poppy Line trains run approximately hourly. Some trains are steam powered, some are diesel powered.
By bus
Norfolk County Council (http://www.norfolk.gov.uk...) co-ordinate several rural bus routes which serve both local residents and tourists.
The most useful route for exploring the North Norfolk coast is the Coasthopper (http://www.norfolk.gov.uk...) which operates every two hours throughout the year and hourly during the summer season from Hunstanton to Sheringham, following the A149 and calling at all villages en route. Day tickets 'Rovers' are available on the bus, and combined tickets with the Bittern railway line from Sheringham and Cromer to Norwich - such as the Bittern Line Rover - allow a family of four to travel between the coast and Norwich for only £10 return.
Sanders Coaches (http://www.sanderscoaches.com) and First Eastern Counties (http://www.firstgroup.com...) also run regular services from Norwich to the towns and villages of the region.
