Property information

Nestled by the River Bure in the Broads National Park this newly renovated 3-bedroom 17th Century Barn can accommodate up to 6 guests. Boathouse Barn is set on 15 acres of private land and features its own river access offering guests a chance to escape to the countryside. Those looking for a more active holiday can even canoe/paddle board to a local pub directly from the property! River access, beautiful gardens and a tennis court, this is a truly fantastic property like no other.

Neighbourhood information

Beyond the gates however, there is an entire county to explore. The Broads National Park is home to over 125 miles of waterways waiting to be discovered as well as numerous towns and villages each with their own individual quirks and charm. You'll never find yourself short of destinations to set sail for. Horstead itself is a peaceful village, with the River Bure flowing through the centre which splits with neighbouring village Coltishall. There are several delightful pubs on your doorstep including the very popular Recruiting Sergeant, just a 10-minute walk up the road. You can even paddle down the river to the Rising Sun or over the river to the Norfolk Mead Hotel with its spa and superb restaurant. At the end of the road you will find an excellent deli/fishmonger as well as local-takeaways and a mini supermarket in the village. The 'capital of the Norfolk Broads', Wroxham is right around the corner (4 miles) and is an ideal spot to hire a boat for the day to explore the peaceful and tranquil nature of one of the most famous attractions in the U.K. The beaches of East and North Norfolk are only half an hour away and the vibrant market town of Aylsham is only 10 minutes...
