About this property
East Ruston 2 miles. This lovely end-terrace property is situated on the outskirts of the Norfolk village of East Ruston. An ideal holiday home for a couple wishing to explore the surrounding area of this beautiful part of the country. When you step inside the front door there is a well-equipped kitchen to the left and then through to the sitting room with sofa bed and dining area. There is also a shower room with shower, basin and WC on the ground floor. Upstairs is a comfortable king-size double bedroom. Just a short stroll away is the Museum of the Broads, one of many activities available just a stroll from the cottage. A little further afield is Hickling Broad, the largest of the broads and a haven for wildlife such as dragonflies, cranes and kingfishers, so why not hire a boat out for the day and explore the waterways? There are many fishing, boating, walking and cycling opportunities close by, as well as some splendid nature reserves. Alternatively, visit the town of Wroxham, the historic city of Norwich and many other thriving towns and small villages along the coastline.
The unspoilt scattered village of East Ruston is located in the north-east of Norfolk, and sits on the edge of the Norfolk Broads and is just a few miles from the Norfolk coast, offering lovely sandy beaches. The village of East Ruston has a pub serving food, access to the Weavers' Way footpath, which passes through the village, lovely lakes, including a fishing lake and common areas enjoyed by walkers and wildlife.

Couldn't ask for better. Nice dry place to park. Well equipped kitchen, lounge and bedroom. Sower room great too. A drier would be useful but understand space is a problem. Walks for the dog, right from front door. . Nice circular walk too. Map in cottage. Would definitely re-book for next year if those dates are available.

Clean, comfortable and quiet, just what we wanted. A decent reading/standard lamp in the living room would be useful as my wife does a lot of sewing. But that is just nit-picking really.

The saucepans were in a damp cupboard and were not clean so put us off cooking. Although there was a year's supply of cleaning sponges. There was no foil available or cooking oil. Not major but would have been nice. There was only 1 and a half toilet rolls which was not enough for a 5 night stay. We ended up using the kitchen roll, which was not ideal. It would also have been nice to have some liquid hand soap in the bathroom. As the property accepts dogs it would have been really nice to have a gate so the dogs could be let out safely, but reading other comments this is not going to happen, although it was ok for the calor gas man to come and completely disrupt the front area without putting things back where they were. The bedroom had not been dusted or cleaned for quite a while because on the red headboard you could clearly see the accumulation of dust. It would have been nice to have a bin upstairs in the bedroom. On the plus side, it was really helpful having the torches at hand to be able to let the dogs out in the evening. The TV facilities were excellent but could not find the DVD player. Lovely location, no mobile signal but good WiFi and landline for emergencies.
