Frequently Asked Questions
Which counties are in the East of England?

Is the East of England good for a beach holiday?

Is the region hilly?
Generally, no. The East of England is known for being the flattest region in the UK, particularly in Cambridgeshire and the Fens. This makes it absolutely fantastic for cycling holidays, as you can ride for miles without tackling a steep gradient.

Is the East of England good for dogs?
It is excellent for dogs. Many of the vast sandy beaches have designated dog-friendly zones even in summer, and places like Thetford Forest offer miles of woodland trails. Because the landscape is generally flat and open, it is easy to find relaxing walks that aren't too strenuous for older dogs.
