Hi everyone, I've never joined anything before but feel now is the time, I lost my wife 2 months ago due to cancer, she lost her 4yr battle, we only bought our motorhome a year ago, then last November I was also diagnosed with cancer, I had my 8hr operation in March, I'm still trying to use our motorhome but it's not easy, I'm thinking of going away for a few days every month norfolk/Suffolk are if anyone has any ideas, would need a pub within walking distance for my tea, all the best

If you get the app search for sites it shows pub stops in the area you wish to visit, with contact details and reviews. They also have a website if you would prefer that.

Welcome!
The Five Miles From Anywhere pub is right next to the Western edge of Suffolk on the bank of the River Cam but an overnight stop is/was allowed if you're eating in the pub so may be of interest. Best to phone ahead to check.
I stayed two nights.......you can park in the tarmac car park or beside the river on grass........

View from my morning brew in bed..........

Just a couple of miles away is the interesting Prickwillow Pumping Station with a history of fen drainage and eel trapping.

Prickwillow Museum

Prickwillow Museum and its collection of diesel engines tells the story of the drainage of the Fens, the people who ran them, and the history of the local area. The museum showcases some of the region's finest examples of restored diesel engines.

Nearby (actually in Suffolk) are Neolithic flint mines which are worth seeing if pre-history is your sort of thing.

Grime's Graves - Prehistoric Flint Mine

Journey back in time at Grime’s Graves as you descend nine metres below ground into Britain’s only open Neolithic flint mine.

Oh, and nearby Ely is a fascinating medieval town with a magnificent cathedral.
Good luck!
