18th century house of character in a picturesque, unspoilt village in the heart of the Norfolk Broads - five minutes walk from the public mooring.

Neatishead, a peaceful, sprawling village, where grass still grows down the middle of its side roads, continues to move at a leisurely pace compared with the nearby busy, crowded boating centres of Horning and Wroxham.

Just a few yards walk from the guest house is a village public house, with separate dining room (specialties Lobster and Cromer Crab). Also an old world licensed restaurant. At Regency House guests can peruse a good selection of menus from other highly recommended eating hostelries within a five mile radius.

Broadland is one of Britain's newest National Parks, where the Broads join with six rivers and stretch into marshes creating a very special area of scenery and wildlife.

Cromer, renowned for its crabs, is less than an hour's run through pretty countryside; Blakeney is worth a visit for its estuary sailing, seal colony and bird sanctuary; the Queen's estate at Sandringham is a perfect day's outing; Norfolk Lavender can be found at Heacham; Blickling Hall (National Trust) ten miles away, is one of the many more National Trust homes to see in this area; and the city of Norwich with its magnificent cathedral boasts abundant museums and art galleries.

Neatishead is indeed an ideal base for East Anglia sight-seeing. The village is six miles from the coast and twenty minutes drive from the city of Norwich. It offers a hive of activities - is excellent for walking, cycling and bird watching holidays. Cycles can easily be hired locally (lock-up barn available for storage). Canoes can be hired in the village and an extensive range of boats, from rowing boats to cruisers, are always available in the nearby town of Wroxham. A variety of leisurely boat tours operate daily from local villages.

Run by owners Alan and Sue Wrigley, Regency House is situated in the centre of the village. Operated by the same owners since it was opened in the 1970's, it has a long established reputation for serving very generous English Breakfasts.
