Broadland

Blickling Hall

Broadland, one of the most beautiful areas in the country, offers many contrasting landscapes. To the east lie the world famous Norfolk Broads, Britains finest wetland with over 200km of navigable waterways. The Broads are made up of open waterways, reed beds, grazing marshes, fields and woods. It is unique and best discovered by boat. To the west visitors can explore the gentle rural landscapes with its ancient woodlands. 

Broadland is in a perfect position in relation to the historic City of Norwich, Norfolk’s capital, where you can find everything you could possibly want.

Broadland also offers a wide range of leisure activities including fishing, boating, golf, tennis, swimming, and horse riding. Nearby there is a dry ski slope as well as windsurfing and gliding.

There are a wide range of attractions to suit everyone, from Blickling Hall to the City of Norwich Aviation Museum, from the Bure Valley Railway to the Dinosaur Adventure Park.  

Broadland has excellent transport links from all parts of the UK by both road and rail. Norwich International Airport is a major regional airport with over 300 world-wide connections via Manchester and Amsterdam. It also caters for the national market with many internal flights across the UK.

On the doorstep of Broadland visitors can enjoy the motor racing at Snetterton, football with the Norwich Canaries and horse racing at Fakenham and Great Yarmouth, as well as the beautiful beaches and scenery of North Norfolk.
