The Village of Castle Acre is a real gem! It has so much appeal for visitors, a real must to visit is spectacular English Heritage Ruined Priory, a Ruined Castle & an impressive large church. There are numerous walks around the village including a very pretty walk along a meandering stream which runs alongside the priory, it really is such a tranquil and beautiful walk. The water is so clear and inviting & often in summer children and dogs can be seen enjoying a paddle in the ice cold water! Castle Acre is also on the well known Peddars Way route, attracting many keen walkers.
