Norfolk Broads Holiday Cottages
The Norfolk Broads are located within the triangle of Norwich, Lowestoft and Sea Palling. It consists of around 200 miles of linked rivers and waterways that are well-suited to sailing and boat cruising. Norfolk Broads holiday cottages are hugely popular with holiday-goers - see the featured property below and follow the link for Norfolk Broads cottages, from the UKs most successful cottage rental agents, Cottages 4 You.
It was thought that the Broads were formed by glaciers millions of years ago but research has now shown that they are the result of man-made diggings for peat and turf. This practice is recalled in the village of Barton Turf.
The Broads can only truly be appreciated by hiring a boat and using its waterways to explore the unique region - many of the channels are actually set below the surrounding countryside. Boats can be hired from a selection of Broads towns such as
Wroxham and Horning.
The area also has reminders of a Norman past in the form of 14th century churches such as Rollesby church and St Michael's of Beccles. These old towns, fringed by boats and waterways have a real charm to them. Book Norfolk Broads holiday self catering holidays on the Norfolk Broads below.
