  • 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.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked: Lovely site as always, beautiful scenery, lovely walks to village and train station but equally as nice to relax on site

Disliked: Toilet and shower block not as clean as previous visits,lock broken on one shower so 2 functional showers for 50+ campers but didn't spoil our stay

Recommend to friends Visit again

Steve H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered grass campsite

Liked: Very well laid out site, with suitably sized pitches, in an area with views across open fields and pleasant riverside walks.
Check in was simple, where your pitch was displayed on a board at the entrance and you just found your allocated spot and set up.
Having a pub nearby was handy, although we hadn't realised that they close early on Sundays (our stay was during Easter weekend,) but it certainly didn't affect the stay.
The site is pet friendly with a dog walking field.
In the nearby village, which is a short 5 minute drive away, there's a small convenience store, a chip shop, 2 further very good pubs and a couple of very pleasant café/ tearooms. Oh and Pettits Adventure Park is also just up the road.

Disliked: Toilet block is not suitable for disabled; to access it involves climbing 3 very steep steps so I feel that the addition of a ramp could be beneficial. Also, the shower cubicles could do with a separating partition and maybe a folding seat.
Some of the lighting wasn't working so it left areas of the site quite dark.

Powered grass campsite

Liked: New, well looked after toilets. Lovely pitch and great space. A bit crowded over the Easter period but not noisy, everyone was quiet from 10.00 pm. Very dog friendly and lots of places to walk direct from the pitch. There were two fishing lakes, one wasnt in use at the time but the other looked good (according to my other half). Didnt get to the pub as we werent there long enough but apparently it was lovely. Everyone very friendly. Will no doubt revisit.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike

Powered grass campsite

Liked: Great location, easy access to site and facilities. Location of local pub on the doorstep and short 15 min walk to local train station connecting you to Norwich, Great Yarmouth. Nice relaxed and chilled site

Disliked: Toliets could have been cleaner, benches in showers would have helped with all the juggling with hooks and clothes.

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.
