On the road between Wroxham and Ludham, the popular riverside village of Horning offers a range of local amenities, including shops, a primary school, riverside pubs and restaurants, and numerous boatyard facilities. The Ferry Inn serves traditional pub food and carvery meals, with a large riverside garden and customer moorings.

Standing on the River Bure, Wroxham is around three miles (an 8 minute drive) by road and shares many attractions with neighbouring Hoveton. Whether on the water or enjoying the busy pubs and restaurants, there is something for everyone.

The Bure Valley Railway, which opened as a heritage railway in 1990, begins its journey in Wroxham. Steam and diesel trains run the 18-mile round trip through Norfolk countryside to Aylsham.
