Potter Heigham has lots to offer on it’s door step to those choosing a holiday staying or departing from here can sample the newly opened and popular pub and restaurant opposite, a fish and chip shop, a discount store where you can fill up on essential provisions, a long stretch of fishing spots (and a tackle store a stones throw from the front door!), the famous Weavers Way walk and an amazing tea room also located opposite Herbert Woods, perfect for resting those tired legs.
Norfolk is one of the driest counties in the UK and see’s less than 700mm of rainfall a year which is fairly even across the year and some areas seeing less than 600mm. Max. temperatures range from 5–10 °C in the winter months to 20–25 °C (68–77 °F) in summer months. With the Norfolk Broads being flat in nature, temperatures can reach 35 °C (95 °F). Total sunshine hours are also higher with the coast being close by.
Every season on the Broads offers something spectacular to see. Summer is a popular choice of travel with longer daylight hours offering more cruising time & stunning late sunsets, but Spring offers a quieter time to travel the Broads with emerging wildlife in abundance & popular with fishermen whilst pike season is at its peak. Autumn on the Norfolk Broads is very picturesque with changing autumnal colours and a photo opportunity at every turn. You’re quite likely to spot an otter at this time of year too. Winter surprisingly is a popular choice of boating holiday. Think crisp sunny days with mirror like reflections on the Broads, pubs with roaring fires, plentiful mooring spots & migratory birds to be seen almost everywhere.
There’s so much to see and do on the Norfolk Broads, even those that permanently reside in the area are spoilt for choice. From stunning walks, cycle routes (you can even bring cycles with you on holiday on selected boats), wildlife watching, fishing, places of interest from historical 200 year old windmills, castles and abbeys to the fun of the circus, not to mention the fantastic array of local waterside eateries with many using locally sourced food and drink so you can really soak up a piece of Norfolk.
