MASTERS OF THE AIR ✈️ 🇺🇸

During WWII, the 100th Bomb Group earned its nickname the ‘Bloody Hundredth’ due to staggering losses of planes and personnel. Young men, often just out of high school, flew in unproven and unpressurised aircraft in freezing temperatures against a relentless enemy, who filled the air with hail storms of bullets and nearly impenetrable walls of flak.

Every mission meant facing daunting odds of the near-certainty of never returning; and, if they did return, they had to do it again the next day, and the next, and the day after after that. By the end of the war, a combat airman had to survive 35 missions to be sent home.

📕 Their legendary stories are retold in the book, Masters of the Air, by Donald L Miller. 📺 The Apple TV series of the same name tells the story of the 100th Bomb Group, which operated B-17 Flying Fortress bombers from an airfield at Thorpe Abbotts, Norfolk. Produced by Stephen Spielberg and Tom Hanks, the finale episode is due to be released on 15 March.

🇬🇧 Book a stay at Cliff Cottage, Sheringham, and visit the 100th Bomb Group Memorial Museum at Thorpe Abbotts: a place where 1000s of young US airmen began their daylight missions over Nazi-occupied Europe. Pay tribute to the very real sacrifice for those airmen who gave their lives in defence of freedom.

🗺️ Explore Beeston Hill and discover the ‘Y’ Station equipment . During the war, Beeston Hill was manned by German-speaking Wrens (Women’s Royal Naval Service). Wrens intercepted coded intelligence sent between German E-Boats, which was then sent on to Bletchley Park and the War Office in London. Remarkably, Wrens were based in the house nextdoor to Cliff Cottage, Sheringham, called The Bluff.

‘You know what I mean. England. It’s so lovely at this time of year. I used to go and spend Whitsun with an aunt who lives in Sheringham on the coast of Norfolk. In late May the air was so pure you could get drunk on it. The fields and hedgerows were alive. It was the most beautiful time. And there was a little pub in Burnham Thorpe where -‘

Read Sebastian Faulk’s Birdsong novel and it’s clear the author drew inspiration from this beautiful location.

Thanks for spotting this reference to our home town of Sheringham. Kitty, too 😘

"We lived at Sheringham in Norfolk, where we had a house at the extreme edge of the town on the cliffs and adjoining fields. My childhood was the nature I remember ... In the garden I would lose myself in a forest of holyhocks. The scent of a rose was a whole world, as though when I buried my nose in the petals the day was instantly canopied with a red sky."

Extract from World Within World by Stephen Spender, 1951.

The poet, Stephen Spender CBE, was referring to his house, formerly known as 'The Bluff', which is next door to our Cliff Cottage, Sheringham. In fact, Stephen’s father was a friend of Prime Minister David Lloyd George (Liberal, 1916 to 1922) who, it is believed, stayed at the house, too.

“And here, while I’m on the subject of views, is a piece of advice. When you’re choosing where to stay, don’t mind how ugly it is itself so long as what it looks on is beautiful … More than often, advertisements show a view *of* the house but not the view *from* the house, which is what you see - so be careful.”

Extract from ‘Seaview’, broadcast on 11 May 1938; Trains and Buttered Toast: Selected Radio Talks by John Betjeman, edited by Stephen N Games, 2006.

Here’s our view and it is, indeed, beautiful.

Sometimes you just need to get away. An ideal spot to ease into Summer, Cliff Cottage is just right for a family getaway, but works just as well as a creative retreat.

Either way, hike the North Norfolk Coastal Path, watch the waves froth along the sand, and take in miles of wild coastline.
