Norfolk is a popular spot for those moving to the countryside - but where are the most desirable places to live in the county?

We spoke to local estate agents to find out where the most desirable places to live in Norfolk are.

Natalie Howlett-Clarke, joint head of residential sales at Savills Norfolk, said: “More generally one of the most popular areas continues to be the north Norfolk coast - the likes of the Burnhams and Brancaster for example.

"There are some fantastic eateries and a variety of boutique shops, complemented by some wonderful coastline in an area of outstanding natural beauty.

"The ability to work from home means that many buyers want to make north Norfolk their primary residence.

"Consequently homes with an office or benefitting from extra space are at the top of people’s wish lists.

"The likes of Overstrand and Southrepps are also growing in popularity.

"They are relatively more affordable compared to some other areas but you still have the benefit of a lovely lifestyle.

"Holt is also very popular - particularly among buyers with children who are attracted by Gresham's School.”
