Map of the UK

Surlingham is a small riverside village in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, situated on the eastern bank of the River Yare within the landscape of the Norfolk Broads. The village is notable for its reedbeds and tidal marshes, and the nearby Surlingham Church Marshes nature reserve is popular with birdwatchers, kayakers and people seeking classic Broads scenery.

Historically a farming and river‑based community, Surlingham still combines agriculture with a local tourism and boatyard economy, while many residents commute into Norwich. Social life is centred on the village pub, hall and riverside activities, and there’s a quietly strong conservation ethos given the area’s wildlife interest and long human connection to the river.
