Visitors can look forward to free parking for the next four months at two Norfolk beaches.

West Norfolk council does not charge drivers to use its car parks at Heacham, near Hunstanton, over the winter months.

Visitors will not need to buy a parking ticket between Friday, November 1 and February 28, 2025.

Until then charges range from £2.30 for an hour to £6.70 for 24 hours and also apply to blue badge holders.

Some 80 spaces are available at North Beach, with a further 20 at the village's South Beach.

Both offer views across the Wash and glimpses of the estuary's famous wildlife, including flights of geese and waders. Their westerly aspect is also perfect for watching the sunset.

Charges remain in force in the council's car parks at nearby Hunstanton and the privately-operated car park at nearby Snettisham.
