Weybourne Station

A heritage railway station in the North Norfolk countryside

Weybourne Station is a preserved country railway station on the North Norfolk Railway, also known as the Poppy Line, between Sheringham and Holt. Set among fields and woodland south of Weybourne village, the station offers a glimpse into the history of rail travel along the Norfolk coast.

Originally opened in the late 19th century, Weybourne Station retains much of its traditional railway character, with period station buildings, platforms and heritage railway features. Steam and diesel trains operate along the preserved line, connecting the station with Sheringham and Holt on selected operating days.

The station's rural setting makes it a distinctive stop for visitors exploring the Norfolk Coast National Landscape. Footpaths and quiet country lanes connect the surrounding area with Weybourne, where traditional flint buildings, village streets and the nearby coast provide opportunities for exploring on foot.

To the north, Weybourne Beach is known for its exposed shingle shoreline and views across the North Sea. The Norfolk Coast Path follows the surrounding coastline, connecting Weybourne with Salthouse to the west and Sheringham to the east, offering longer walks through contrasting coastal landscapes.

Visitors can combine a heritage railway journey with time exploring Weybourne village, the beach and nearby countryside. The railway also provides a different perspective on North Norfolk, passing through farmland, woodland and historic settlements away from the main coastal roads.

For visitors exploring Weybourne Station and the surrounding Norfolk Coast National Landscape, The Ship Inn offers guest accommodation in Weybourne. From the village, visitors can explore the station, Weybourne Beach and the Norfolk Coast Path, with Sheringham and the surrounding countryside within easy reach.
