Extra Amenities

This wonderful terraced house is located directly on the riverside, overlooking the marina linking to the River Bure. It is a superb property for both families and couples, and makes a perfect place to simply sit, enjoy the boats and wildlife, or fish direct from your decked terrace. Situated within Ferry Marina, a small complex of similar styled properties, Kestrel Cottage holds a commanding position with a modern first floor open plan living space to benefit from the amazing views. It offers spacious living throughout and boasts a decked terrace on the ground floor, which has direct, unfenced access to the river, as well as a decked balcony from the first floor with outdoor furniture. Hire a boat and moor it at the property - it’s the most magical way to explore this magnificent waterway with over 125 miles of tranquil waters to explore. If you’re a fishing enthusiast, be sure to bring your fishing rods as pike fishing is well known to be very good between November and January when there is less activity on the water.

Horning, a picturesque Broadland village with riverside inns, restaurants, a selection of small shops and tea shops, is a 15-minute walk away. Daily boat hire and river trips are available, or take a trip on the Southern Comfort Paddle Steamer which cruises up and down the Broads, taking in the beautiful scenery and abundance of wildlife. Held during summer are several boat races and a week-long regatta where you can enjoy all the boating action from one of the many pubs or restaurants situated along the riverbank. For those seeking a more active holiday, the marina and leisure club welcomes visitors who wish to enjoy water sports, and there are plenty of walks and cycle tracks that take you through the village and into the surrounding countryside and nature reserve.

Children will enjoy BeWILDerwood, an outdoor tree top adventure park, or there is Wroxham Barns and the Dinosaur Park at Lenwade.
