Rollesby is a small village and civil parish in the district of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, England. Sitting on the edge of the Norfolk Broads, it is best known for Rollesby Broad and the surrounding network of waterways that attract boating, fishing and birdwatching, giving the area a pleasantly rural, watery character distinct from the nearby coast.
Historically an agricultural community, Rollesby now combines farming with a modest tourism and leisure economy - holiday cottages, angling and Broads-related activities are important locally - and retains the feel of a close-knit village with a parish church and village hall at its heart, making it popular with naturalists and quiet-day visitors rather than mass tourism.
