Free motor launch available except  during the Whitsun and Summer Holidays; but day boats can be hired during these dates at preferential hire rates, direct from the owner. Fishing on-site (licence required). Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. Please note: There is unfenced water frontage 4ft from the rear of the property. These properties have a security deposit of £50 for all bookings which include pets and £200 for all male/female bookings.. The Boathouse apartments have been built on a nautical theme and equipped to a high standard, offering excellent riverside holiday accommodation. The properties (refs CVK, CVL and CVM) are within a working boatyard on the banks of the River Bure enjoying river views, and each property has the added benefit of a motor launch free of charge which can be moored nearby. The motor launch is chargeable during the Whitsun and Summer School Holidays, and bookable direct from the owner.

Each apartment has a ground floor compact decked area and first floor glass balcony, providing lovely scenery over the water with all its activity. Designed in ‘upside down’ style, the open-plan living area on the first floor has patio doors leading to the furnished balcony - perfect for relaxing and soaking up the atmosphere.

The properties are situated in Wroxham, which is well known as the ‘Capital of the Broads’ and has a selection of cafes, restaurants and shops within a few minutes walk. The wider area is also criss-crossed by numerous footpaths and cycling trails. One of the best ways to enjoy the Broads is on the water by motor launch, or take one of the organised day trips arranged by the neighbouring boatyard. On the water, the beauty of the Broads can be truly experienced with its extensive wildlife (ducks, geese, swans, spoonbills and herons) and its sleepy Broads villages with their pretty flint cottages and attractive churches.

The coast is within easy reach (12 miles) with lovely sandy beaches and a string of villages spreading northwards to the bustling sea towns of Cromer and Sheringham. Alternatively, Norwich is less than 10 miles away with its cathedral, castle, museums, theatres, excellent shops and restaurants. National Trust properties well worth a visit are Felbrigg Hall and Blickling Hall, both within easy reach. Nearest shops are 500 yards. These three properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 16 guests. Moorings for motor launches are outside the property and life jackets are available free of charge. Pet life jackets available on arrival for a refundable £10 deposit. These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 16 guests.

Nice venue, plenty of space, with plenty to watch on the water. Only, not vital, downsides: the living room floor creaks a lot (but strangely the stairs are silent), no small sharp kithen knives, sofas are uncomfortable, beds are a little short. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

perfect set up for 2 families.

perfect set up for 2 families. Plenty of space and facilities for a very easy staycation. Nice location right in the boatyard so always loads going on. 3 min walk from the town. plenty of hot water etc. Decent range of pans, good sized fridge / freezer and washing machine that were a pleasant bonus as not on photos. would highly recommend.

A beautiful house for enjoying a beautiful autumnal weekend in Nov near Norwich.

A beautiful house for enjoying a beautiful autumnal weekend in Nov near Norwich. Waterside was very comfortable, clean and spacious - Perfect for our party of 4 adults and 3 teenagers. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking all meals for the entire weekend. We enjoyed our morning coffees on the wraparound deck and a day out in the houseboat. We would definitely stay here again!

Good value

Handy location for shops and pubs. Busy boatyard sometimes make you feel like you are in the way a bit. Some maintenance need to the property to ensure things like the showers are up to date and working properly. Obviously furnished as a holiday let but comfortable, warm and very relaxing. Real positives is the use of the day boat as part of the deal.

The accommodation was lovely with the bonus of the balconies on both floors. The kitchen was well equipped. Every bathroom was supplied with a bag of travel toiletries along with towels for each person. We were also supplied with a welcome pack which was much needed after our journey there. Even though we managed to park, it would have been nicer to have been designated specific spaces for each apartment.

Even though house was clean not a great location as in working boat yard.

Even though house was clean not a great location as in working boat yard. Beds far too low and uncomfortable. Floorboards very noisy so not great if you are the first to go to bed as can hear others walking around upstairs. Although enough space for large party, each room has TV which is helpful when others want their own space although too small to actually watch in comfort. Older people of the party found the sofas uncomfortable as very low at the back. Bonus to the property each room has own en suite shower room which were lovely. Free use of day boat. Did enjoy sitting out on the balcony.

Lovely location and very pleasent stay. Dayboat was a brilliant and not to be missed. We went before peak season to celebrate a birthday. Waterside was big enough for 8 of us to stay and have our own space if we needed to.

What a fantastic few days with the family.

What a fantastic few days with the family. The house was lovely (if a little noisy with it being all wooden) but we had a well stocked kitchen, comfy beds and a welcome pack to start us off. The location was easy reach of everything and so pretty. But, the best bit was the boat which provided hours of entertainment for all ages. We will be coming back....

Wow! What a fantastic 2 night stay at Waterside Boathouse with 8 friends. Very clean accommodation, located right at the waters edge and the use of a day boat moored right outside was brilliant. Will definitely be booking again next year!
