Criss-crossed by a network of rivers and waterways, the Norfolk Broads boast beautiful scenery and plenty of opportunities for walking and wildlife watching.

Many of the rivers are navigable, and boats and kayaks can be hired from all over the Broads. If you’re not keen on travelling under your own steam, just sit back, relax and let a professional take over on a guided boat trip.

Of course, where there's water, there are fish, so angling is a popular past time in the region. The miles of country lanes and riverside trails are perfect for cyclists too, whether you're the next Bradley Wiggins or prefer to take it slowly.

With so much to do and see, you'll need a comfortable base to rest in the evenings. Our Norfolk holiday cottages in the Norfolk Broads offer the ideal relaxing retreat.
