Take in the splendour of the Norfolk Broads with a stay in this riverside haven in the village of Reedham. Boasting views of the River Yare and endless opportunities for boat trips and watery adventures within reach, you’re well-positioned to get to know Norfolk’s famous national park while staying here with beloved friends and family.

It’s also pet-friendly with two furry friends invited to stay, ideal when stepping out each day with a wide array of walks to tackle.

Neutral colouring meets hardwood flooring, a feature fireplace and original stable-style doors to give this traditional cottage an undeniable elegance. A lounge sits separate from the kitchen/diner on this property’s ground floor, creating space for the whole family to unwind, whether relaxing in front of the Smart TV or playing a board game at the table. The wood burner sits beside the TV to create the cosiest space for unwinding, while the garden at the rear is large, enclosed and furnished with special features including a pizza stone for summer months. Back indoors, all four bedrooms – two king-size rooms, a cosy twin and one single – and two bathrooms are laid out on the first floor with everything you need for restful nights.

A popular locale within The Broads, Reedham is an enviable village with a selection of stunning pub gardens for sitting by the river, a quay with boat trips and mooring for your personal boat and the Pettitts Animal Adventure Park (1 mile) – a great place to visit with kids.

Generally comfortable, especially the beds, and a lovely outside eating area if the weather is good - sadly, for us, it wasn't! A few 'issues' on arrival. Pleasant, peaceful setting and well equipped - although a few instructions for the oven and TV would have helped,

The cottage was very spacious for 7 of us and a dog. The bed linen was very clean, beds were comfortable, towels were soft and clean on our arrival. The location of the cottage was perfect, with lovely views of the river. Not too far for us to travel to the beaches. Plenty of places within the village for eating.

We had a lovely April short break here, the house has a lovely feel, quiet location with fabulous views across the river and fields beyond. Separate sitting room and dining room and conservatory means space for people to do their own thing. Comfortable beds, all slept well. Garden a real bonus, we saw bats in the evening. There were a few boats moRead moreored up opposite, but we only saw the occasional dog walker go by, possibly in the summer it might be busier? We had dinner at the Lord Nelson pub - (next door but not a noisy neighbour!) was very welcoming and went above and beyond to adjust for autistic member of our party. Excellent food. Only wish we had longer to explore the river walks more..... Hide

A comfortable cottage with lovely views of the river Yare and open countryside, log burner and a basket of goodies very kindly left for us in the kitchen. During our stay we enjoyed a Sunday roast in The Ship pub as well as fish and chips purchased locally, lunch at the tea room next door and food and souvenirs bought from Cannells by the River a fRead moreew doors away but the Lord Nelson pub situated on the other side of the property was closed during our stay. We took a walk to Humpty Brewery and purchased some ales there and also went further afield to Norwich and Great Yarmouth by car and by train (the train station is ideally placed about 10 minutes walk from the cottage). Beccles is also worth a visit as well as the Ferry Inn pub which has views of the Reedham ferry. We had a great time and would recommend both the cottage and the location for a holiday. Hide

We had a wonderful week in the cottage. What a beautiful place. Such a cosy and warm place to be. We loved using the log burner, the kitchen was stocked with good equipment to use.

Our family staycation at the cottage was amazing indeed! The house was super clean and the kitten was fully stocked with all the equipment needed. The back garden was also really nice and the location of the cottage was nice with a river view and free parking. We really enjoyed our stay as a family of 7 and would highly recommend this cottage!
