General

Willow Reach is 2 bedroom holiday cottage located within the Peninsula development located on the River Bure in Wroxham. This prime location is nestled around a private marina just off the River Bure and close to the heart of the village. You have beautiful waterside views from both sides of the property providing you not only with some privacy but also the hustle and bustle that comes with life on the river.

The open plan lounge and kitchen creates a cosy relaxing space with a dining table and chairs and plenty of comfy seating that overlooks the Rive Bure. The full length patio doors lead out to a pleasant lawned area where you can enjoy your morning cuppa as you watch the river come to life. Alternatively, relax here in the evening with a glass of bubbly whilst your dinner sizzles away on the BBQ. On the 2nd floor you have 1 double bedroom with views of the marina and 1 twin bedroom which overlooks the garden and the river. The well-appointed family bathroom makes this property perfect for a small family or a group of friends.

With direct access to the river this is the perfect location to sit back, relax and try a spot of fishing. (Open season 14 March – 16 June. Rod license required, available from the Environment Agency.) A private boat mooring is also available at a charge of £5.00 per day if you wish to get and explore on the river and enjoy some riverside lunches along the way.

Please Note: Caution should be observed with young children and pets as the river’s edge is unfenced.

Located in the heart of the Northern Broads you are within a 5 minutes’ walk to the village where you will find a supermarket and various pubs and restaurants to choose from. From Hoveton train station you can take the short 20 minute journey into the medieval city of Norwich or perhaps enjoy the shopping and craft facilities at Wroxham Barns. Further afield the sandy beaches and popular Norfolk coastal towns such as Sheringham, Cromer and Horsey are less than an hour's drive away. Enjoy the nostalgia of a seaside town and blow away the cobwebs walking along the promenade. Your holiday can be as active or relaxed as you wish and after a stay at Willow Reach you will return home feeling rested, recharged and revitalised.
