UPTON
Set along the banks of the River Bure, in the heart of the Norfolk Broads, Upton is a tranquil village with timeless appeal. Its name, meaning ‘higher farm or settlement’, reflects its gentle rise above the surrounding marshes – peaceful and picturesque, yet rich with natural beauty. Just a short stroll from Upton Marshes, the village is a haven for walkers, birdwatchers, and anyone seeking the calming rhythm of the Norfolk countryside. Take in the county’s famously big skies on a circular walk around Upton Staithe, where sailing boats drift by and the landscape rolls out in every direction. At the heart of the village lies The White Horse Inn – a true local gem offering a warm welcome, hearty food, and a fine selection of ales and wines. Each summer, the pub hosts a much-loved three day beer festival, bringing the community together in celebration. Adjacent to the pub, a village store provides everyday essentials, while the nearby town of Acle—just five minutes by car—offers a wider range of amenities. Around 13 miles away lies the historic city of Norwich, the UK’s most complete medieval city. Its cobbled streets, such as Elm Hill, are steeped in character and lined with independent shops, cafés, and galleries. Norwich Cathedral and the University of East Anglia’s Sainsbury Centre further enrich this cultural hub. Well-connected, yet utterly serene, Upton offers the perfect balance of rural charm and access to city life— an idyllic setting to slow down, explore, and truly belong.
