Once an important place of pilgrimage, the ruins of Bromholm Priory are still to be seen in Bacton today. The Priory was built in 1113 AD by William de Glanville and was home to the Cluniacs, the Black Monks who purchased a piece of the True Cross, the Bromholm Roode.  Ensuing miracles ensured visits by many thousands of pilgrims including King Henry III. The Priory was mentioned in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, the Domesday Book, and was the subject of a prediction in Mother Shipton's Almanac.
Today the coastal village opens its doors to the 21st century pilgrims who visit for their holidays. They enjoy the friendly village atmosphere and the sandy beaches, which are often quiet even in the height of summer. There is a good range of local amenities including a pub and shop nearby, a children's playground.

Reviews

This is the 4th year running we have been to Pilgrims and we'll be back next year. The location is great - we go without a car (train via North Walsham and bus or taxi the last few miles) as there is lots to do on site, the beach, and up and down the coast to the neighbouring villages and towns (walk or bus). Tesco deliver if needed. The owner is lovely and very helpful, we never have any issues. I'd live there if I could!
