Between the world wars, [[P. G. Wodehouse]] often visited his friend Charles Le Strange at [[Hunstanton Hall]]. It influenced a number of locations in his comic novels, as [[Aunt Agatha]]'s country seat Woollam Chersey and the inspiration for the setting for [[Money for Nothing (novel)|''Money for Nothing'']] (1928). The octagon in the garden featured in [[Very Good, Jeeves|"Jeeves and the Impending Doom"]]. Norfolk also furnishes names for many of Wodehouse's characters, such as Brancaster, Jack Snettisham and J. Sheringham Adair.

[[L. P. Hartley]] knew the Hunstanton neighbourhood from childhood holidays and used it as a setting for ''The Shrimp and the Anemone'' (1944), the first novel in his Eustace and Hilda trilogy. It is at Hunstanton Hall, fictionalised as Anchorstone Hall, that Eustace enters the privileged world of the aristocracy and eventually inherits a small fortune. The layered chalk, red chalk and carr-stone cliffs at Hunstanton provide a backdrop for Eustace and Hilda's games among the rock pools.

[[Patrick Hamilton (writer)|Patrick Hamilton]]'s novel ''[[Hangover Square]]'' opens with George Harvey Bone walking on the cliffs in Hunstanton. Hamilton lived for many years at Martincross in [[Sheringham]] and spent time in the 1930s in a cottage in [[Burnham Overy Staithe]], with his first wife, Lois.
