A luxury hotel in north Norfolk has been named one of the top 10 seaside hotels in the UK. 

Which? has released its list of the best beach breaks in the country and a Norfolk hotel has tied for first place.  

The Harper in Langham was rated as a four-point five out of five, making it one of the best on the list.

The hotel, which was built in a former glass-blowing factory, wowed the judges with its "courtyard of olive trees, rusty chimneys and festoon lighting".

Inside the judges were impressed by "an indoor pool and hot tub, a stylish bar area and several cosy hideaways to curl up in with a little something from the wine-vending machine".
