The Location
Coltishall is a much-loved Norfolk village that combines a vibrant community spirit with the natural beauty of riverside living. Set along the River Bure, moored boats and gentle wildlife hint at its link to the Broads, while everyday life here centres on connection, comfort, and quality of living.
The Rising Sun, a popular riverside pub and restaurant, is a true hub of village life, where hearty food and relaxed seating spill onto the water’s edge — always lively on warm summer days. Just up the road, the Recruiting Sergeant offers excellent dining in a friendly, characterful setting, while a local Londis store and takeaways ensure daily convenience.
Coltishall also offers an enviable network of walking and cycling routes, winding through countryside and along the river. With the Broads close by, opportunities for sailing, canoeing, and paddleboarding abound, while Norwich and the Norfolk coast are within easy reach.
Balancing tranquility with vibrancy, Coltishall is a village where riverside views, good food, and a strong sense of community create an enviable lifestyle.
