The Reeds offers spacious and stylish accommodation for discerning guests located directly on the riverside, alongside the inlet waterway that leads to the River Bure, which flows centrally through the heart of Wroxham. This detached property has wonderful riverside views from all rooms at the rear. The ground floor offers a large living room with French doors leading into the garden and riverside and two kingsize bedrooms, each having own their bathroom options. The well-equipped open plan kitchen/dining room with French doors leads to a decked seating verandah which is simply perfect for al fresco dining opportunities. Upstairs you will find two further kingsize bedrooms and a shower room with toilet.
The entrance hall has large glazed windows offering an opportunity to quietly sit and relax. The wrap around lawned garden with mature flower borders and two decked seating areas offers plenty of choice to enjoy the outside. A private slip way is provided for launching your own kayak along with great fishing opportunities directly from the garden. Bring your own fishing equipment and bikes, as these can be stored in the shed. The private mooring dock is available for guests to moor their own boat during their stay or hire a boat. The dock is approximately 13ft x 28ft. There is a slip way at the end of the river if guests wish to launch their own boat.
Located in the heart of Wroxham, capital of the Norfolk Broads, within easy walking distance from riverside cafés, inns, shops and its railway station. This is an ideal location from which to explore the popular villages and broads such as Potter Heigham, Coltishall, Salhouse and Ranworth, which are all easily accessible by road or river. Horning, a picturesque village with riverside inns, restaurants, a selection of small shops and tea shops, is well worth a visit.
The area is criss-crossed by numerous footpaths and cycling trails, and there is the excellent sandy beach of Sea Palling 11½ miles away. Well worth a visit is the grey seal colony at Horsey Gap Beach; between the months of December and February there are hundreds of seal pups on the beach. For the children, visit Bewilderwood, an outdoor adventure park at Horning, Wroxham Barns or Wroxham Miniature Worlds, the largest indoor modelling attraction in the UK.
Alternatively, jump on the train or bus and spend the day in the fine city of Norwich with its cathedral, castle museum, two indoor shopping malls, cinema complexes, theatre and an array of shops, market square and cafés. Great Yarmouth, 20 miles away, is a traditional seaside resort with a funfair, model village, leisure centre, host to many sporting activities and indoor swimming pool. Further afield is the North Norfolk coastline with picturesque villages, sandy beaches, salt marsh nature and bird reserves, daily fishing and boat trips to visit the basking seal colony. Beach 10 miles. Shops, pub and restaurant 200 yards.

Confirmed Guest
Fantastic holiday home. Immaculately clean, very well equipped, great communication with the owners. The weather was awful so we all agreed that we need to come back in spring or summer. We hired a picnic boat from Alban at Aldiss Boat Hire and miraculously there was a break in the weather and we had a great trip to Ranworth. The church is wonderful but climbing the tower is not for the faint hearted!

Beautiful cottage in a great location, catered for all our needs and we couldn't fault anything. Dave and Michelle were great, very helpful and on hand if needed. We would definitely recommend and book again, we had a wonderful family break.... just wished we had booked for longer than a week!
