Further details for this holiday cottage rental in Norfolk Broads, United Kingdom

What can I do here?: The three main attractions are the Norfolk Broads (rivers and lakes) with rural countryside, the historic cathedral city of Norwich and the wonderful sandy Norfolk Coastline including the bustling seaside resorts of Cromer and Great Yarmouth. All this is less than 30 minutes drive from the cottage.

What are the Norfolk Broads?: The Norfolk Broads are a unique combination of slow meandering rivers with beautiful lakes (locally known as Broads). The river banks include thatched cottages with immaculate lawns (and gardens), reed beds (used for roof thatching) and many pretty staithes (a local word for a place to moor your boat). The best way to enjoy this wonderful National Park is either on-foot or by boat. Boats can be either hired (by the hour or day) or take an organised trip - Norfolk boats are either motor cruisers or traditional wooden sailing yachts.

Other Activities: boating, beaches, gardens, craft shops, tea rooms, leisure centre

2 magical days :-)))

catiette cambridge
Review Submitted: February 25, 2010 Date of Stay: February 2010
Had 2 fabulous days. Very cosy feel in the cottage + everything you need to have a lovely time. Particular helpful were the folders at the cottage with all kind of infos and recommendations from very welcoming owners on how to best spend your time there, or find a place to eat or visit!

Bewilderwood was a definite fantastic outing for the kids (and me)
The trip to see the seals was also a winner for the kids to want to go back

Will definitively want to go back and explore more of this enchanting area.

Seymour Cottage

Kenny & Co Sussex
Review Submitted: January 12, 2010 Date of Stay: December 2009
This cottage was just as described. The owners were very helpful between us booking and arriving. We (4 adults) stayed for 4 days over New Year. The information books and guides were useful and very comprehensive. The property was very clean when we arrived and is well equipped. We were a bit concerned we'd be warm enough with storage heaters- but it was really cosy. Horning is a lovely village with very friendly local shops. The deli / cafe is particularly inviting. There are two pubs just across the road - we only visited the Star but what a lovely real old fashioned English Pub. The Chinese take away (as recommended by the owners) was truly delicious and fantastic value for money. We used the park and ride to visit Norwich - we loved the shopping!! If you need a supermarket 'fix' all the main ones are within a few minutes drive. My husband was looking forward to a game of golf but unfortunatley during our stay the local courses were frozen. Oh well, a good excuse to return another time We would thoroughly recommend this as a place to stay though we suggest that for longer than a few days its more suited to 2 adults...or perhaps in summer a fmily with quite young children. All in all a great place to go!

Our long weekend at Seymour Cottage

maureenmuch London
Review Submitted: September 9, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We've just returned from a three night stay at this delightful cottage which we choose at very short notice and at random from this website. The description given by the owners is 100% accurate and the location is absolutely lovely, directly across the village road to the river, which is beautiful.

The cottage is very cosy, very well maintained, and the owners have thought of everything for the occupiers comfort. The beds are clean, comfortable and the bedding is new and fresh. All we took with us were towels. Our stay was early September and one night it was very chilly when we arrived back from a restaurant but we put the living room fire on and the cottage took no time to warm.

We have no hesitation at all in recommending this cottage and would hope to rebook for at least a week in future as three days is not enough to enjoy the lovely area.

The owners left a comprehensive list of restaurants etc. in the village and surrounding areas and all we tried were excellent, especially the fish of the day at the Staith n Willow restaurant.

We hired a boat from Wroxham, very near, and had couple of enjoyable hours on the river; took ourselves off to shire horse sanctuary near Cromer and adopted a splendid animal called Bluebell, with whom we instantly fell in love.

We left on Monday morning, had coffee in the village, sat outside the Swan pub watching the boats and to our surprise and pleasure were able to watch an otter going about its normal Monday morning business - lovely!

Perhaps a blessing (or not) but O2 mobile phone reception in the village was not good, a bit hit and miss, which we didn't mind but others might find it a nuisance.

Seymour Cottage

Marky AB Kent
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Purely by chance found this cottage on the website and it was available for the dates we needed. Received good communication from the owner before our stay and on arrival the property was well maintained and lovely and clean. The village is small but has everything you need. Two nice pubs on the river, a small general store and a couple of shops selling local produce, cream teas etc.
The Southern Comfort mississippi river boat which leaves from the end of the village is well worth going on.
Although everything is quite close to the cottage it is still quiet. We would definetly go to this cottage again. Highly reccomended.
