Sandy beaches can be found just twelve miles away and the City of Norwich with its beautiful cathedral, castle, museum, theatre and superb shopping is just eight miles.

The Broads is well known for its’ fishing activity – you should expect to find perch, pike, bream, rudd, eel and tench in the waters here. Fishing (subject to season and licence) can be enjoyed from the decking at all our properties. We would obviously be remiss if we didn’t mention the joy of just being out on the water. Within a couple of minutes walk from each property, it is easy to hire a boat by the hour, half day, day or longer. If you fancy a boat trip but without you being the Captain, there are a number of organised boat trips which leave from the centre of Wroxham or from nearby Horning.

We stayed the last weekend in January for my mum’s 80th birthday celebrations. We were lucky with the weather so used the rowing boat which was great fun. The place was perfect with enough rooms and bathrooms for everyone and everything you could need, including a large fridge and plenty of crockery. Dining room with ten chairs and four large sofas so everyone could be together. Would definitely recommend and will be returning. We also hired a 12 seater boat for half a day from Wroxham Lauch Hire. 5 mins walk and man was so helpful. A great way to really experience the Broads. Can’t rate highly enough :-)

We had a few family members over for a get-together. The check-in process was very simple and the home was exactly as described. It was clean overall but some of the rooms were dusty. We also found the lack of towels a little inconvenient. Overall, if you’re thinking of staying here then would recommend!

We all really enjoyed our stay at this property.
The living/dining room & outside space was lovely.
The kitchen was well equipped but not as well organised as it could be making finding some utensils difficult. Also the crockery & cutlery was not as clean as I would have liked, however this didn’t spoil our stay.
Overall I would recommend this property & would definitely stay here again.

Ideally situated riverside setting only a few minutes walk from boatyards, shops and a good variety of eateries. The grandchildren loved Bewilderwood which is only 2 miles away.
An ideal setting for a lovely relaxing break.

We were a family party of 10. The property is in an excellent location right in the heart of the Norfolk Broads. From our arrival everything was made easy with the security lock check in. First impressions, the house is huge! So much space for everyone to chill. The family loved it. The kitchen is massive and, well equipped with everything you need. The outside decking gave us plenty of space to dine and enjoy the sunny evenings. We made use of the BBQ as we celebrated the Queen's Jubilee.
We hired a day boat a few times from Richardsons. With the moring right outside, it made it so easy to drop everyone off. We had a fabulous holiday. Made so much better with excellent living facilities. The customer service from Paul was fantastic. My granddaughter left her mobile phone behind. Paul had it posted back to her the very next day One very happy girl ! I would highly recommend booking the Waterside Retreat. Absolutely everything you need all in one place!

Great house in a lovely location on the water. Very clean. Walking distance into town. We hired a day boat locally. The men enjoyed the fishing off the decking, even managing to catch the resident pike. Look forward to returning in the future.

Waterside Retreat
Ideal holiday home for a large family group of eight ranging in ages from 12 to 80. Plenty of room for all to relax and the large kitchen - made life somewhat easier for whoever and how many were doing the cooking. The conservatory was well used with the view over the water and the dinghy was put to good use by the younger and more energetic in the party.
Easy walking access to Wroxham and the shops was a bonus.
Highly recommended and our youngsters have already asked if we can return next year !!

Waterside Retreat was a lovely spacious home, that had all the right elements to make it welcoming. The location was most relaxing being both close to shops and walking running routes. In summer I can imagine sitting out at the waters edge or taking the dingy out, but was a little too chilly for us. The property had everything we needed and was nicely heated throughout the house. Have had a family get together the big lounge and kitchen were ideal. Would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay with a large family or extremes family coming together for holidays as lots of space and ample parking. Thanks for the wonderful use of the property.

The house is perfectly geared up for large groups. There were 8 of us but could easily sleep 10 or 11. There’s two large tables to seat everyone & lots of storage space. It was very clean and well equipped. The location is perfect to explore the area & the view over the river is beautiful. Would highly recommend.
