Weavers' Way
The Weavers' Way is a 61 mile long-distance path connecting Cromer and Great Yarmouth and is entirely in Norfolk. It is a gentle walk through beautiful countryside, and has plenty of accommodation and other services. At Cromer it connects to the Norfolk Coast Path, and at Great Yarmouth it connects to the Angles Way and Wherryman's Way.
The RambleFest Weavers' Way pages are intended for anyone who loves the countryside and wishes to find accommodation, camping, pubs, restaurants, camping shops and public transport on or close to the long-distance footpath.
To make use of this site you do not have to walk the whole route, nor even part of it, but if you do, good luck to you.
Not only do we show you where to find accommodation and places to eat and drink (click in table below), but we show the guidebooks and maps required, and make them available to buy online.

Weavers' Way Accommodation
We have split Weavers' Way accommodation into Hotels & Inns and Bed & Breakfast. We use the word Inn in its true sense of a pub which provides accommodation, rather than just a romantic name for a pub. Guest House accommodation is included with Bed & Breakfast. While we realise many guest houses are better than some hotels, in order to avoid confusion we have opted for the simpler option.
We are always looking to improve our information, and welcome accommodation recommendations.
