Attleborough’s history can be traced back to Saxon times and, sadly, much of the town was destroyed by fire in 1559. It has a fine example of a medieval church with a Norman tower. The traditional industries of turkey-rearing and brush-making still take place. The turkey on the town sign is said to depict the days when Attleborough turkeys had their feet dipped in tar to withstand the journey along roads to the London markets. Carnival Week takes place in June, when organisations get together to host an array of activities including an excellent parade of floats. The town has a good selection of shops, a sports hall, doctors’ surgeries, dentists, opticians, health centre, banks and building societies. There is also a weekly market held on Thursdays. Education facilities cater for pre-school right through to adult education. Attleborough is twinned with the French town of Nevil les Aubiers and many successful visits have taken place between pupils from each high school.

Accommodation ratings

The English Tourism Council, RAC and AA ratings mean that you know that the accommodation has been thoroughly checked and rated before you make your booking.

Hotels are given a rating of between one and five stars; the more stars, the higher the quality of room, service and facilities. Guest accommodation, which includes bed and breakfast, guesthouses and farmhouses, is rated in the same way, but with diamonds rather than stars. The levels of quality and customer care get progressively higher as the diamonds increase.
