An idyllic couple’s retreat, this is a lovely waterside annexe property. Light bounces off the water through the windows and patio doors in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to give the whole room a relaxing feel, whilst the bedroom is a peaceful sanctuary with dual-aspect windows. The decked seating area outside is the perfect place to sit out with drinks and watch the boats and wildlife go by.

Situated in the village of Brundall, this property is located within 500 metres of the high street with its shops and choice of places to eat. The station lies conveniently within 0.5 miles of the property, offering links to Norwich and Great Yarmouth. Surrounding the village, the wetlands of the Mid-Yare Nature Reserve is a great spot for both keen walkers and wildlife enthusiasts alike.

8 miles to the west of Brundall, the historic city of Norwich is a great place to spend a day visiting the cathedral, browsing the shops, and exploring the Norman castle. Or perhaps head there for an evening out, dining in one of the restaurants and rounding off the night with a trip to the theatre or cinema. To the east, the picturesque Norfolk Broads and the seaside town of Great Yarmouth are both within a 12-mile drive.

2nd stay here. Its a beautiful property with every comfort you need. Just a shame that storm Babet decided to come on our last day and the A47 was flooded and we were unable to leave. Fortunately for us the cottage wasnt booked so Jim very kindly let us stay longer until we were unable to get through. If it wasnt for him we dont know what we would Read morehave done. Many many thanks. Apart from that it was another lovely stay and received a nice welcome back from Jim and Truffle the dog. Hide

We had a wonderful relaxing week. Jim the owner was great , he was close by so if we had needed assistance he was there. He gave us lots of useful information about the area and gave us recommendations of good restaurants. The Boathouse is positioned so you could just sit out and watch the boats go by all day, Lovely!!

Can highly recommend the Brundall Boathouse. Relaxing accommodation in an idyllic location, and within easy reach of Norwich, North Norfolk and the Broads. Welcoming host, flowers and bubbles were a lovely touch. Like many others reviewing and writing in the guest book at the property, we hope to return one day.

The venue was clean, all the essentials where there. The views were great and it is very relaxing watching the boats sail by. There are few places to walk for the able bodied but walking is available nearby. The owner was helpful and friendly and he had left special touches like fresh flowers, a bottle of bubbly, DVD's and books.

The Boathouse is a comfortable riverside cottage in a very special location.

We had such a wonderful relaxing time at The Boathouse. The photos on line don't do it justice. The location is perfect, to watch the boats pass and to watch and listen to the birds. Having cheeky ducks waddle into the kitchen was hysterical. Also loved the visits from Truffles, Jim,s friendly dog. The weather wasn't very kind to us but had it beenRead more better it would have been hard to venture from the boathouse. It's only 2 minutes walk from the railway station so we hardly used the car.

The cottage was lovely, spotless and the location on the river peaceful but with plenty to see with boats and wildlife. Facilities excellent and as the weather was glorious the living room was bathed in sunshine and we had the patio doors open sitting on the deck. Would not hesitate to recommend and the welcome from Jim and Truffles was great.
