  • Four-acre and level pub and riverside site on the Norfolk Broads
  • Private fishing lake in a wildlife haven
  • Free slipway use, barbecue area and food served by the fire
There are times when you just want a ferry relaxing break. Away from the hordes in the seaside resorts, alongside peaceful riverside scenery, and with the option on site of river fishing, lakeside fishing or just taking a pint of Woodforde Wherry to sup by the riverside and watch the ferry chug back and forth… All, thoroughly, sorted. Reedham Ferry Touring and Camping Park is a pub site in the Norfolk Broads, with a private fishing lake available to guests to land carp, bream or rudd; you can also fish for free from the site on the banks of the River Yare. The four-acre site is level and landscaped with views of the Norfolk countryside and marshes; if you’re not fishing, take your binoculars to the riverside to spy on the local herons, marsh harriers and kingfishers. And if you do want to be beside the seaside for a day, Great Yarmouth is about 11 miles away. Pitches at Reedham Ferry include free use of the slipway if you’re bringing along a dinghy or two. There’s a barbecue area on site for putting together your own grub – or you could just sit by the fire in The Archers and have your dinner brought to you: a ferry good deal all round.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: This was our second stay in a week. Decided to stay one night on way home due to location and price. Needed to be in Norwich early Saturday morning so stayed for convenience. Location is gorgeous and had been peaceful at our previous stay earlier in the week

Disliked: See my previous review regarding facilities. What had been a previously peaceful three night stay turned into a nightmare on this one night stay. Selfish group of lads drinking all afternoon then shouting, singing and listening to loud music in the field adjacent to the site until 4am. Tried to ring the site manager to advise him of the issue. No reply. My husband eventually went to speak to the group at 1.30am and they agreed to stop. Some of the group went to bed but two of them carried on loudly talking on the field until 4am when they walked back to their tent talking loudly. We sleep in a campervan poptop so we were kept awake throughout the night. I tried to ring the site manager at the office and bar the next day as a courtesy so he could speak to the group to prevent it happening to other campers the next night. No answer. Emailed him to tell him what had happened and still waiting for a reply. Very poor that my husband had to deal with this and site management not available

Local attractions

Walk along the river to Reedham village for fish and chips, Reedham Quay and more pubs: the Lord Nelson has free gigs most nights, or you could take the yard of ale challenge in The Ship – both pubs are dog-friendly and dish up huge portions of food. The Humpty Dumpty Brewery, one of the breweries supplying the site, has a shop selling its beer alongside local ciders and produce. For families, Pettitts Adventure Park is also in Reedham, with a kids' theatre and animals to feed and pet. From Reedham, take the 12-mile cycle route starting from Reedham Quay and going through local towns and villages, or take the chain ferry across the River Yare to drive on through the countryside. But as it’s the Broads, a bit more mucking about in boats is definitely in order: as well as the vehicle ferry from the park itself, several companies in the area offer cruises and guided tours or you can go rowing, canoeing or sailing under your own steam. Take the kids to goggle at the gibbons at Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens, just outside Great Yarmouth: the seaside town is about 11 miles from Reedham Ferry and will keep small fry entertained for hours (if not days) with its circus, Sea Life, seafront Golden Mile and 12 amusement arcades.
