Plan a holiday on the water with an escape to this comfortable retreat, perfect for large families. Set right beside the River Bure, it offers a peaceful base from which to explore the beauty of the Broads, visit nearby beaches or spend days walking or cycling in the fresh air.
This spacious, red-brick cottage combines rural charm with direct access to the waterways. Step into the country-inspired kitchen, which offers ample room for preparing family feasts, with a microwave and a dishwasher for convenience. The welcoming lounge/diner features a beamed ceiling, ornamental fireplace, tiled flooring and large, south-facing windows that frame views across the garden and surrounding landscape. As well as shelves filled with book, there’s a Smart TV for easy entertainment, while the dining table provides plenty of space for shared meals. A large bathroom with a bath and walk-in shower completes the ground floor. Upstairs, three attractive bedrooms enjoy far-reaching views. For fresh air and outdoor fun, spot wildlife from the private patio overlooking the water, play games on the lawn or head down to the unfenced pond and see if you can find any frogs. A private mooring is another major bonus (bring your own boat if you wish), and off-road parking is provided for three cars.
The cottage is located on the edge of the small market town of Acle, just 0.5 miles from shops and places to eat, and 1 mile from a boatyard where you can hire a cruiser for the day. If you prefer to stay on land, there are a multitude of footpaths and cycle routes to explore, with the bonus of pretty, waterside pubs where you can stop for a break. Great Yarmouth is 9 miles away, and the historic city of Norwich can be reached in less than 13 miles.
