The Norfolk Broads
This mysterious network of waterways, shallow lakes, woodland, fen and marsh is a very special wetland that bursts with wildlife. The backbone of the Broads is five rivers – the Ant, Thurne, Waveney, Yare and Bure – that reach across Norfolk and Suffolk from Norwich to the seaside towns of Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft. Off these are around 60 broads, lakes and dykes giving 125 miles of navigable waterway, which connect the Broadland communities including Wroxham, the ‘capital’ of the Broads, [...]

Suffolk
A land of big skies, wide horizons, forest and marsh. Let’s start on the River Stour in the Dedham Vale…Constable Country. Suffolk’s greatest artist, John Constable, was born in East Bergholt. He was inspired by the stunning countryside, which is still much as it was. North to the architectural gem of Lavenham. With its 300 listed timber-framed houses, it has been described as ‘the most perfect of all English small towns’. To the Suffolk coast – always under threat from the sea. [...]

Joined by six rivers, the broads are flooded medieval peat diggings. Great boating and a wildlife treasure house. The [...]

The cathedral is a fascinating mix of Norman and Gothic styles. Look for the Lincoln imp gargoyle, turned to stone by an angel, then explore Lincoln Castle. Enjoy an Elizabethan extravaganza at Burghley House, home of the [...]
