A beautiful cottage on the river. Everything you need was provided. Was nice of Jim and Truffle to meet us on arrival and show us round. The bottle of Prosecco was welcome to celebrate my birthday there. Pleasant for fishing. The weather for October was superb and enjoyed sitting on the deck in the afternoon. The refurbished pub was still being donRead moree but will open shortly so would be good for food and drink. Im sure we will return one day. Hide

The Boathouse is a comfortable riverside cottage in a very special location. Invariably quiet and peaceful, it is a wonderful place to relax and to enjoy watching the local wildlife (eg a heron fishing) or pleasure craft on the River Yare. With the light and the water constantly changing, it is a difficult place to leave even to visit local attractRead moreions, and a delight to return to at the end of each day. With a friendly welcome from Jim, the owner, we hope to return again soon. Hide

This is a super place to stay. The Boathouse is very clean and comfortable. Very well appointed and maintained with everything one could possibly want. Very quiet location right on the river so it is interesting to see pleasure boats go along and wildlife very near - a heron was in touching distance one morning. There is a delightful deck with tablRead morees and chairs. Well placed to visit the north coast and very near the main Broads. We had a very enjoyable week. Hide

We had such a wonderful relaxing time at The Boathouse. The photos on line don't do it justice. The location is perfect, to watch the boats pass and to watch and listen to the birds. Having cheeky ducks waddle into the kitchen was hysterical. Also loved the visits from Truffles, Jim,s friendly dog. The weather wasn't very kind to us but had it beenRead more better it would have been hard to venture from the boathouse. It's only 2 minutes walk from the railway station so we hardly used the car.

Perfect location as you can just chill the whole time but its close enough to towns if you want to do something.

We loved the area the Boat House was in. It was very interesting. The view we had was perfect and very relaxing. We have done a lot of sight seeing in Norfolk already so it was just right for us to watch the boats go by and also to take a boat ride ourselves.. Though the weather turned cooler and wet we still had a nice break.
