Norfolk is a county in the East Anglia region of England and its coastline is on the North Sea, including the Wash. Its county town is Norwich and it is largely rural, although 40% of the population lives in just four urban centres, namely Norwich (which is Norfolk's only city), Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn and Thetford.
One of its major tourist attractions is the Norfolk Broads, a network of rivers and lakes, which is a National Park. Adjacent counties include Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire and Suffolk.
There are no motorways in the county - the principal trunk roads there are the A10 and A11 - although Norwich does have an international airport. There are two universities: the University of East Anglia located on the outskirts of Norwich and Norwich University of the Arts, located on St George's Street in Norwich city centre.
Norfolk has a number of amusement parks, zoos, stately homes and nature reserves, including Thrigby Hall near Great Yarmouth (tiger enclosure, primates and reptiles), Holkham Hall (beautiful 18th century stately home with a deer park, Banham Zoo and Pensthorpe Nature Reserve near Fakenham (lapwing, Eurasian crane, Marabou stork).

When should I sort out council tax and water rates?
You should close your accounts for council tax and water rates when you exchange and you should similarly get in touch with the appropriate authorities for your new property at this point too.
Don't forget that if you're buying a freehold property, you should put in place buildings insurance to run from the point of exchange as you're then responsible for the structural integrity of your new property.
If you're buying a leasehold, the freeholder normally covers buildings insurance in a block policy which you'll contribute towards in service charges but you should ensure that this is the case.
