Horning is a waterside village and civil parish in North Norfolk, set on the banks of the River Bure in the heart of the Norfolk Broads. Its winding waterways, reedbeds and riverside cottages create a quintessential Broads scene that attracts boaters, birdwatchers and people looking for a peaceful riverside break.
Much of the local economy still revolves around boating - hire firms, boatyards and moorings sit alongside pubs, cafés and holiday lets - while the village keeps a lively seasonal social life with sailing clubs, regattas and river events. Historic links with Victorian boating tourism and a strong community feel mean Horning remains both a popular visitor spot and a closely knit local village, a short hop from the service centre at Wroxham.
