Those without will find perfect cottage self-catering accommodation in one of the quaint Broadland villages. The Norfolk Broads are a series of seven rivers and sixty-three lakes or meres, the majority navigable by boat. The Broads cover 303sq.km, most of them in Norfolk, with just over 200sq.km of The Broads passable by boat.

Most Broads are located in the northern half of Broadland, which encompasses the Rivers Bure, Ant and Thurne. The Broads range from small ponds to large areas such as Hickling, Barton and Breydon, from which visitors can find a good range of holiday cottages of all sizes, with many waterside cottages offering private moorings and fishing locations at the bottom of their gardens.

The Norfolk Broads have always had a mystical charm, which is probably why they were christened ‘Britain’s Magical Waterland’, reflecting the rivers’ mystic beauty. The Broads offer fun and adventure that the whole family can enjoy. However, the Broads are not all about staying on a boat. A wide range of self-catering holiday homes is scattered throughout the picturesque villages. Many walking and cycling routes follow the rivers through beautiful countryside and landscapes - an ideal leisurely activity for all the family to enjoy. The unspoilt villages and market towns (and their pubs) scattered all over The Broads allow visitors to sample local food and (grown-ups only) good Norfolk ales.
