A pub which describes itself as a "gateway to north Norfolk" is preparing to host its annual Christmas market with more than 30 local sellers. 

The Hoste Arms in Burnham Market is welcoming a range of independent stallholders this weekend as festivities get under way in its Garden Room, Lodge and Outside Terrace.

It will feature a "thoughtfully chosen selection of local independent makers, producers and creatives selling their incredible products" and will run from 10am to 6pm on Friday and 10am to 4.30pm on Saturday.

A spokesman for the Hoste Arms said: "We'll have fantastic presents and treats, each with a story and flair behind them, a chance to enjoy a deliciously festive lunch, a signature mulled wine or a glass of Norfolk fizz."

There is no entrance fee but tables must be booked online through the pub's website.

Last year the pub ran a "Christmas films under the stars" event at its own outdoor cinema, offering visitors a courtyard seat surrounded by candlelight.
