Boasting a pleasant location between the North and South Broads, this property puts so many of the wonders of Norfolk within effortless reach. Venture north to discover the Blue Marshes (4 miles), perhaps renting a boat to explore Wroxham Broad (6 miles) or mosey on south to find the Mid-Yare Nature Reserve (3 miles) or the RSPB habitat of Strumpshaw Fen (3.5 miles). For further adventures, discover the fantastic scenery of the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (20 miles) and the characterful seaside town of Cromer (25 miles), or take a trip to Norwich to discover beautiful gardens, a historic cathedral and plenty of museums.

Arrive at this property via a shared courtyard and up one step inside. Throughout this single-storey space, you’ll find bright and cheerful rooms featuring modern decor and characterful splashes of colours. Appreciate open-plan living when spending a cosy night indoors. Complete with iPod dock for filling the space with your favourite tunes, this spot is perfect for cooking together, dining and getting comfortable on the couch. Find the kitchen fitted with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, along with a breakfast bar for casual morning meals. There’s also a dining table for romantic meals spent together. As day turns to night you can turn your attention to the lounge, sinking into a soft sofa or armchair and switching on the TV/DVD. Alternatively, grab a book from the bookcase and appreciate peaceful silence in one another’s company. The super king-size bedroom awaits just next door, complete with an en-suite shower room and WC. Here you’ll find a zip-and-link bed to be made up as a super-king-size or twin, depending on your requirements.

Exit via French doors in the kitchen and enjoy sole use of your very own patio space. Fully decked out and offering a bistro set and BBQ, this spot is perfect for those warm-weather stays. Admire the pretty scenery and far-reaching views whilst enjoying a morning coffee or late-night tipple. Off-road parking is available for two cars.
