  • 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.

What customers say

A tranquil, tidy riverside spot, loved for its scenic beauty, chain ferry access, and great local pub. Pitches are roomy, facilities clean, and the vibe is quiet. Plenty of walks/rides, with good links to villages. A few noted dated loos and occasional busy times.

Liked Pretty site beside the river with the chain ferry. Grassy area with mature trees.
Nice pub next to the site.
Lovely clean facilities block ample toilets and showers.

Disliked There was a private function at the pub the weekend we were there so they weren’t doing food which was a shame as it was our last night.
Site got very crowded with vans and tents for the weekend.

Liked The location and site is very nice, being beside the pub and also the small car ferry which crosses the River Yar every few minutes.

Disliked One minor thing and that is that on arrival it wasn't too clear which pitches were available and no one could confirm it.

Raymond F.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Stayed on grass, no electric. Great location right next to a pub (not open Monday or Tuesday) and the chain ferry across the fen. The grass/no electric is a big open field - choose your spot. Site and toilets/showers were clean and tidy. Very quiet place. Dinner in the pub on wednesday was great. Didn't meet any staff - but no problems either.

Disliked More of some advice for potential visitors - at least the men. The mens toilets, washbasins and showers are in one large area with suitable partitions. If you visit either before dawn or after dusk, take a lamp. Unless the place is busy you will be plunged into darkness at some point. Only one PIR over entrance door. Light is essential for both seeking soap and toilet paper. I am 80 and don't bend as well as I used to - there is nowhere to put shampoo or soap accessible from the shower other than on the floor. I go equipped with a poly bag and hooks which go over the partitions to keep essentials in whilst showering. Shower farthest from entrance has VERY short time-on push button so single handed washing is necessary.

Powered grass site

Liked Ferry was good and to sit by river at the pub was pretty.

Disliked Pitches not marked, no sign to tell you where pitch number is. Showers annoying. Press button last about 2 seconds before they go 0ff. Light in gents toilets kept going out so shower in the dark. Pub food basic typical pub grab and very over priced. Gave it a second try but won't be going again. No wifi at all.

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.
