Looking to dine out, the local area includes several pubs serving good food, many having riverside gardens, perfect for watching the boats pass-by, and many good take aways, all within a few minutes’ drive. Neighbouring Brundall offers daily boat hire, available from Riverside, train station for visiting Norwich city and other coastal resorts. Its central location allows you to enjoy and explore Norfolk’s amazing coastline and the famous Norfolk Broads National Park and the RSPB nature reserve at Strumpshaw Fen. The Fairhaven Gardens at South Walsham makes for a lovely day out. Why not jump on the Bure Valley railway to enjoy a steam train journey? The route takes you to the lovely Georgian market town of Aylsham, where you can jump on and off mid-station at the popular broadland village of Coltishall with its riverside pubs and cafés.
The city of Norwich has a castle, museum, cathedral, historic pubs, great restaurants, two indoor shopping malls and plenty of high street shops to enjoy some retail therapy.
