Angela and Kevin
Wow, the Venetian is a plush and amazing experience and place to stay. The interior design of the place is fabulously created with many great little touches. A wonderful and romantic place to be. The Venetian is well equipped with everything you need and the large bed is so comfy. It is well situated right beside the broads so great if you are looking to go on a boat trip. The New Inn pub does some lovely homemade pies and there is a seafood restaurant and Chinese takeaway in the village. Bewilderwood is just nearby and is a great place to visit with children. Wroxham is also a few minutes drive away. We had such a lovely break staying at The Venetian and we look forward to popping back there again soon.

Fantastic house in a great location on the broads. A home from home, with loads of lovely little extras to make you feel welcome. Free parking in the village, outside the Swan Inn. Would happily return and recommend.
