As VisitEngland celebrates its Year of Literary Heroes, it is fitting that Norwich, the first of just two UNESCO Cities of Literature in England and self-proclaimed City of Stories’, has provided a prize for the Gold Winner of a two-night stay at the historic Maids Head Hotel, said to be the oldest hotel in Britain, together with attraction passes courtesy of Visit Norwich.

Silver and Bronze winners will each receive an annual National Trust pass.
