One of the Norfolk Broads' three principal rivers, an amble along the Bure is usually a delight. Coltishall marks the head of the navigable section these days, so you can expect to see boats enjoying the water. Two major tributaries, the Ant and the Thurne join the Bure, before it empties into the sea at Gorleston.

A main Norfolk River with footpaths along much of it meaning great opportunity for walks by the water that are nivable most of the year. This particular section in Coltishall has two pubs and a large grass area for relaxing in the warmer months.

Beautiful spot on the river, with lots of people fishing and enjoying the grassland, with nearby pubs.
