Summer House Stables
3 bedrooms, sleeps 6

Situated in the heart of the Broadlands, wildlife in abundance, this is a great base to discover the Broads and north Norfolk.

This lovely barn conversion is tucked away down a country lane, in the heart of Broadland, enjoying glorious views across open fields. Summer House Stables offers spacious and a thoughtfully furnished interior, as well as a large enclosed garden, complete with a hot tub. The village of Catfield is located just 1⅓ miles away, and offers a local shop and pub. Set amongst a gentle and tranquil rural landscape, dotted with ancient churches, wind pumps and nature reserves, this area of Norfolk offers a wealth of opportunity to enjoy walking, cycling and bird watching. Nearby, How Hill Nature Reserve with its marshes, meadows, woodland and open water, is well worth exploring. Riverside pubs and cafés are plentiful and a number of Broadland centres offer bike and canoe hire - possibly the most delightful way to discover the lovely reed lined waterways and their abundant wildlife.

Visitors can also hire boats at nearby Potter Heigham just 3 miles away, or take a cruise from bustling Wroxham, the capital of the Broads. Close by, BeWILDerwood, a magical tree top park, promises children a day to remember, and lovely dune backed sandy beaches are a short drive in Sea Palling.
For lively family fun, visitors need look no further than Great Yarmouth with Pleasurewood Hills theme park, whilst Cromer also offers traditional seaside entertainment including a renowned end of pier show.

Bygone museums, craft centres and National Trust Blickling Hall are all within an easy drive, as is the medieval city of Norwich, with its magnificent cathedral, castle, galleries, museums, cinemas, theatres and excellent shopping. A little further afield on the north Norfolk coast, seal watching boat trips can be found at picturesque fishing villages, many of which also boast pubs and restaurants serving superb, locally caught seafood. Fishing is available along a stretch of the River Ant, 2 miles, by arrangement with the owner. The pretty village of Ludham, just 2 miles away, boasts two pubs and a good range of shops.
