About this cottage rental
Set down a country lane in the quaint village of Geldeston, Wilma Cottage enjoys countryside views and is close to the marina for boat hire.. Ground Floor:
Living room: 42" Freeview TV, Woodburner
Kitchen/dining room: Electric Cooker, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Washing Machine
First Floor:
Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Toilet. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial logs for wood burner included. Welcome pack and doggy extras. Enclosed lawned garden with decked area and barbecue. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.. This delightful, semi-detached cottage situated on the Norfolk/Suffolk border has been thoughtfully prepared for your comfort by the owner who lives adjacent. It has original beamed ceilings and a comfy living room, where you can relax and doze by the roaring fire with a glass of red, and wake up later to soft carpets underfoot. A spacious kitchen allows you to prepare home-cooked meals, and there is seating for four at the table. Or kick back and relax on the decking in the garden, where you can enjoy breakfast al fresco in the summer morning sun. This is a great place to make memories with friends and family.
If you can drag yourself away from Wilma Cottage, the village of Geldeston is lovely place to have a wander. There is a shop with post office, and two local pubs, where you’ll be greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere and scrummy homemade English food, open fire and a beer garden. Just a 2-minute walk brings you to Rowan Craft Marina, which offers day boat hire, canoeing, fishing and riverside walks along the beautiful southern River Waveney, gateway to the Broads. Walkers will be spoilt for choice here - you can stroll from Beccles to Geldeston Locks, a 7-mile walk along Angles Way, passing Barsham Hall, where the ghost of old Blunderhazard is said to ride his fire-breathing horses to Norwich and back on Christmas Eve! Or the footpath from Beccles to Geldeston village makes for a wonderful riverside walk.
Just 4 miles away is the pretty town of Beccles, made up of small market squares and winding streets, nestled by the River Waveney. You’ll find quirky independent shops, restaurants and cafés, along with festivals and entertainment held throughout the year. Visit nearby Lowestoft for sandy beaches and seaside amusements, or head to Southwold for a traditional seaside resort, just a 20-minute drive away. Or you can try out the fresh fish and chips, and local ale or gin from the famous Adnams Brewery. Beach 17 miles. Shop 1 mile, pub 700 yards and restaurant 4 miles.

Everything you could need, clean and very comfortable. Excellent for pooches as large field just over the road. The Wherry Inn has some excellent food available and we can recommend the Sunday Roast! Mein Hosts Janet and John were really a lovely couple as well + their daughter Rachael. Loved every minute of it! Thank you.

A lovely cottage in a lovely village.Very quiet and peaceful.Local pubs within walking distance are friendly and the food was excellent.Having a dog,the secure field across the road was a great bonus.

We had a lovely week at Wilma cottage, it’s so cosy and beautifully decorated. A very nice quiet village that’s perfect for dog walks. The Wherry is a nice friendly pub with good food, we didn’t manage to try the Locks inn unfortunately but it was in a great location. We would love to come back to Wilma and we’d definitely recommend it.
