Excellent quiet location with loads of wildlife to watch. The Wherry was nice and warm and presented very well. The electricity meter wasn’t an issue we only used £5 in four nights.

Really comfortable home from home feel about The Wherry, great nights sleep on comfy bed, decent shower, very handy fishing tackle shed.10 mins walk into Wroxham village, road can get a little flooded with high conditions so wellies/boots a wise choice.
