Welcome to Martham

Village Green With a population of over 3000, Martham is an historical and traditional British village retaining its Norfolk charm. It is located 9 miles North of Great Yarmouth, 15 miles East of Norwich and 3 miles West of the beautiful unspoilt sand dunes of the North Sea. The Village lies partly in the Norfolk Broads National Park and one of its boundaries is the upper reaches of the Thurne river - a world famous fishing location.
