Accommodation details

A characterful cottage in the old maritime village of Reedham is perfect for families and friends looking for a peaceful holiday and an ideal base to explore all the Suffolk/Norfolk border has to offer. The village is delightful, set along the River Yare, offers pubs, a deli, a tearoom, and a microbrewery, all within a mile.

Enjoy watching the chain ferry at work or, if you are lucky, the swing bridge in operation. Nearby, Pettits Animal Adventure Park, less than 1.5 miles away, is a great day out for all the family, or there are plenty of walks into the local marshlands. This gorgeous property, set over two levels, is a real home-from-home and seamlessly blends old-style rustic with a contemporary feel.

Through the front door, enter the cosy lounge, which features comfortable sofas and a beautiful inglenook fireplace with an energy-efficient wood burner. Enjoy time together reading, playing or streaming your favourite shows on the Smart TV. Cook up a storm in the kitchen and dine at the antique kitchen table.

There is a breakfast bar with stools for more informal meals. Bi-fold doors lead out to the rear garden from the kitchen. A steep, winding staircase leads to a double bedroom with a Smart TV and beautiful views of the River Yare. The second double bedroom has an additional single bed. Both bedrooms share a contemporary shower room.

Outside is a front terrace for alfresco dining, and to the rear is a stepped, enclosed patio area with garden furniture. Off-road parking is available for one car, with on-street parking available opposite the property. Wildlife lovers should spend time exploring the nature reserves at Hickling (19 miles) or Ranworth (10.5 miles) or visit the seal colonies at Horsey (19 miles).

The vibrant city of Norwich is 17 miles away, offering plenty of shopping options along or explore the famous Cathedral and the historic castle. Swim, surf or build sandcastles at the superb sandy beach at Gorleston-on-Sea (15.5 miles).
