General

Langtons View is a lovely 2 bedroom cottage located down a cut off the River Bure in the pretty village of Horning. Complimentary parking is available right next to the property.

This cottage sleeps up to 4 people in a double and a twin bedroom. The open plan living and dining area is equipped with a 50" flatscreen TV plus DVD and has sliding patio doors opening onto a private south facing balcony, with patio furniture, ideal for dining 'al fresco'. Sit on the balcony with your morning coffee watching the hustle and bustle on the river or relax here in the evening’s whist enjoying your complimentary bottle of wine and watching the amazing Norfolk sunsets.

Your accommodation comes with a private pontoon for mooring a day boat (available to rent). It is also the perfect spot for the avid fisherman where you can catch Pike, Tench, Bream and Roach. Alternatively, be poised with your binoculars to spot the abundant wildlife. Horning is a picturesque village with many convenient and interesting shops, a deli, butchers, newsagent, post office, small grocery store and several restaurants & tearooms. Sit and enjoy views of the river and watch the sailing boats from the nearby yacht club.

Perhaps the best way to see the area is out on the river but you also have the medieval city of Norwich to explore or the fine beaches of the Norfolk coast such Cromer, Horsey Mere or Great Yarmouth. There are many family activities available such as watersports (paddle boarding is available locally in Horning), heritage railways, adventure parks and wildlife spots such as Hickling Broad which is the largest expanse of water of all the Broads and is an area of Site of Special Scientific Interest. All in all this is a home from home where you can make the holiday as relaxed or busy as you like whilst enjoying the peace and tranquillity that the Norfolk Broads offer.
