Development on these sites would not be in character with the linear, ribbon nature of this village and access would be difficult. Further, the village is rural. It lies on the Norfolk Broads, on the river Yare, and has three nature reserves. The Wherryman's way long distance footpath and the N1 cycle route run through the village. As such,Surlingham provides a quiet, natural environment for visitors from Norwich and beyond, as well as locals and any significant development would completely change the nature of the village.
