Set within the boatyard at Potter Heigham itself, enjoying views of the Marina. The famous medieval bridge, marshes and the river itself are closeby, this really is an idyllic location. There are wonderful stretches of coastline with sandy beaches for you to explore nearby and if you fancy something a little more lively, why not take a trip to the sea-side resort of Great Yarmouth with it’s many attractions including a fun fair and sea life centre.  Alternatively you could visit the twin cathedral city of Norwich and take a stroll through the cathedral gardens and the cobbled alleyways.
