  • 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: Clean shower and toilet block, hot water and the hands off approach seems to invoke a respectful attitude by all campers. Pitches are spacious and have a mix of sunny and shady spots.

Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: I loved the location, Reedham Touring Park, we had a couple of lovely walks along the river. The restaurant served delicious food where the staff were very welcoming and friendly. Crossing the river on the ferry was quite exciting for the width of the river! We heard lots of different birds including reed warblers, chaffinches goldfinches, green finches, wagtails to name a few. We also saw herons, Canada geese ( think) and goslings on the fishing lake nearby also.

Disliked: The only thing I disliked were the wash basins in the toilet & shower building ie the water did not flow if you stopped pressing the tap, so you could only wash/rinse one hand at a time - I would suggest this as a health & safety issue following using the toilet. The water should flow long enough to wash hands thoroughly before rinsing.

Nice views, toilets could do with a good clean and staff not friendly.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Quiet, nice views and good location for the river.

Disliked: The toilets had a drain smell the whole stay in the ladies, puddle around one of the toilets (potential leak?) one toilet without a toilet seat and all of the toilets toilet brushes were filthy. In the men’s, the same puddle around one of the urinals and 2 sinks not working. Just generally didn’t feel clean. Staff weren’t the friendliest on arrival.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: The site was in a beautiful location right by the river Yare. It would have been very peaceful apart from a couple of inconsiderate people who let their dogs yap non stop. The pub right on the entrance to the site was a nice addition although we only had a pint and some chips outside so can't comment only eating inside. There was a lovely walk along the river for our dogs and it was only about 20 minutes from a couple of cafes and a local shop.

Disliked: The toilets could have been a bit cleaner. It was also quite a drive from any decent shops, about 20 mins just to get to a Co-op and 30 mins to a supermarket in Yarmouth. We would also have appreciated knowing that you have to pay to get a ferry across the river to the site depending on which direction you come from. This cost £7 for our car and caravan but it was the same time to get home once we put no ferries in the satnav. Worth checking before you head there. We also couldn't find any WiFi to connect to.

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.
