Fantastic activities in Norfolk
Your waterside cottage in Wroxham is the perfect base
From our Wroxham holiday cottages, the best of Norfolk and the Broads is within easy reach. For a day out in the city, Norwich is just a 20-minute rail journey away, while Norfolk's fabulous coast, with its wild dunes and lively resorts, stretch away to north and south. There are museums and visitor attractions, stately homes and farm parks, steam railways and tiny villages lost in time. You can even go dinosaur hunting. This is our guide to great days out in Norfolk.
