  • A delightful waterside cottage set in the heart of Norfolk’s scenic Broads National Park
  • Look forward to al fresco meals and evening tipples on the decked patio overlooking the water
  • Perfectly located for days of water adventures, national park walks, and visiting local attractions

 

Property code: OC-H33013

A reverse-level layout really makes the most of this property’s riverside location. Pet friendly, it boasts two en-suite bedrooms, a fabulous open-plan social space and a water’s edge courtyard in one of the Broads’ best-loved villages.

Perfectly placed for adventures in the national park, this peaceful waterfront cottage is perfect for couples or a small family. Step inside and the ground-floor bedrooms include a master super-king-size room and a spacious twin, each with its own TV and en-suite shower room. Head upstairs and the social hub of your holiday is revealed – an open-plan living space with two Juliet balconies that allow a natural flow of fresh air and light. Stretch out on soft sofas before the Smart TV, rustle up enticing meals in the elegant kitchen and linger at the dining table while the dishwasher gets to work. For informal snacks and chats, take a seat at the breakfast bar instead. Outside, the large, decked courtyard extends to the water’s edge; snooze in the swing chair or share al fresco meals as rivercraft and waterfowl pass by.

Private parking for two cars means you can explore at your leisure. Horning lines the northern bank of the River Bure and has waterside pubs, eateries and shops to satisfy every appetite. Expect to see sailing dinghies and charter craft navigating their way along the river; hire a day boat and steer your own course – just 5 miles away, bustling Wroxham and its twin village Hoveton are known as the capital of the Broads. Walkers will love the wide choice of scenic routes across the surrounding countryside, while BeWILDerwood (1.5 miles) is a magical theme park with tree-top adventures, enchanting boat rides and fun for all the family. For coastal contrast, Sea Palling beach (12.5 miles) offers safe bathing, and Horsey Gap (14 miles) has a huge resident seal colony.

Absolutely great. Well placed for visiting many locations around the broads and the Norfolk coast. The cottage is very comfortable, with both bedrooms being en suite and a toilet on the upper floor living area. Would definitely come here again. Views are lovely from the living area and decking onto the water front. Whats not to like.
