“We had a lovely week at The Boathouse Cottage, which is excellent accommodation and well placed to explore The Broads and also the coast nearby.”

We also really enjoyed canoeing along the River Ant around Dilham as well as hiring a boat to explore around Barton Broad.

“Perfect location.”

Cottage was very clean. Our host was really helpful. Lovely welcome box of goodies on arrival. Added bonus of having canoes with the property.
