Although the Norfolk coastline is only half an hour's drive away, you don't even have to get in the car if you fancy a refreshing dip while staying here. Out in the garden, a heated swimming pool will be the place to play and relax all throughout the summer months. When the British weather has other ideas, however, there's plenty to like about the home's interior, too. The long living room benefits from big windows at either end so there's plenty of natural light, while the kitchen is both generous with surface space and finished in a fetching shade of mint green. In the local area, there are distractions to appeal to guests of all persuasions. BeWILDerwood theme park takes seven minutes to reach in the car, while Wroxham Barns is a twelve-minute drive away. There's no shortage of walking routes and watersports opportunities in the surrounding Norfolk Broads as well.

About The Broads
Straddling both Norfolk and Suffolk, The Broads now house over a quarter of the UK’s rarest animals and plants, with water voles, cuckoos and European eel all found among its habitats. Yet the winding rivers and broads haven’t always been here – they were created in the Middle Ages when peat workings were flooded.
