Norwich

Norwich is the largest provincial city in the country and boasts everything you would expect from a historic town.

Cobbled streets, a castle, two cathedrals, a daily market and the winding River Wensum make living in Norwich – or visiting Norwich – a pleasant experience whatever the time of year.

Boat trips are available from the centre of Norwich right out into the Broads - a world apart of slow-flowing rivers, flooded medieval peat-diggings and flourishing wildlife. Water, wide open spaces and wide open skies make the Broads a paradise for boaters, walkers and any fan of the great outdoors.
