Shut at the moment pending a new lesee

Occupying an enviable spot on Rockland Staithe, the New Inn is a traditional country pub. It serves great food and drink, perfect for a refuel after exploring Rockland Broad and the trails along the River Yare. The 38-mile (61 km) Wherryman's Way long-distance trail passes right by the door too.

An enjoyable spot for a break. There's a really nice view of the Rockland Marshes and the River Yare.

Remember your binoculars there's plenty of wildlife to spot.

RSPB Rockland Marshes is a nature reserve with wonderful views over Rockland Broad and the River Yare. The reedbeds and open grazing marshes afford year-round displays of wildlife. Keep a look out for bird species including barn owl, great crested grebe, Cetti's warbler, kingfisher, mute swan, tufted duck, pochard, and goldeneye.

Rockland Broad is a tranquil spot tucked away behind the River Yare. You won't find many boats here, so you can enjoy the calm waters mostly alone. Look out for the huge pike in the clear water during summer.

Wheatfen Broad is a small nature reserve packed with rare species. The diverse habitats are home to some remarkable wildlife, including yellow swallowtail butterfly, Norfolk hawker dragonfly, cuckoo, otter, and willow emerald damselfly. The site is managed by the Ted Ellis Trust, a charity that was established to continue the legacy of Ted Ellis, an acclaimed naturalist who lived in the area.

There's a very well placed bench just up from the visible hide which takes in the hole marsh. Birding for free

Great place on the footpath to view the RSPB reserve

From the Staithe, there are several, waymarked circular walks that take in the Wherryman's Way and part of the National Cycle Network. There's ample free parking and a pub across the road for when you've finished.

Great Cycle pub stop with grub. Next to river, Mind the pot holes on road to pub.
