  • "The location of the cottage is 100%."

    You walk out of the French doors and within 5 yards are the broads, with all the fantastic views and wildlife at hand - absolutely fantastic. A perfect place to people/boat watch. Where do I start with the cottage… to be honest, the cottage needs a lot of TLC to bring it anywhere up to the standard of the lovely lodges that we usually book. We had heard that it was a little tired… I would personally say that it was a lot tired. The paintwork was in dire need of some fresh paint as there were scuff marks everywhere. The flooring in the lounge area needs replacing as the sun has scorched a lot of the area around the French doors, and the sofa has definitely seen better days and is VERY uncomfortable. The television also needs bringing into the 21st century with a smart TV needed. The crockery was almost non-existent. In the 30° of heat last weekend we needed to drink a lot, but unfortunately there was only three tumblers and we had to keep washing them up to reuse them. There was also only three mugs . The furniture in the main bedroom was also very rickety and we were afraid to put anything in the chest of drawers in case it fell apart. The bed was actually very comfortable. The table in the kitchen was also very wobbly and old . In this day and age, there is a lot of high expectations with holiday accommodation and unfortunately Cotman cottage did not fit the bill. Also, please don’t think it is a short stroll to the supermarket and other amenities. It is at least half a mile. Not good in the heat. We would definitely go back to the area again.

  • "The property was smaller than expected."

    Paintwork was a little tired in places. It was quite well equipped. Patio doors and windows needed a good clean however.

The property

Cotman Cottage is a pleasant pet-friendly cottage resting on the water’s edge in Hoveton, Norfolk.

Ideal for couples, families or friends seeking a riverside escape boasting an open-plan living space, designated parking and river access.

Park the car and enter your riverside retreat.

Upon entering, you are met with a bright and spacious open-plan area consisting of a well-appointed kitchen, dining area and sitting area.

Whip up a delicious meal in the kitchen, utilising the oven and hob, with a DAB radio nearby playing your favourites.

Once delicious aromas fill the air, gather around the dining table set for four guests.

After dinner, let the dishwasher take care of any mess left behind, then pick a leather sofa to unwind on.

You can gaze out the window at the boats passing by on the river, or flick on the TV for a cushy movie night.

In the evening, ascend the stairs to freshen up in the bathroom with a bath to soak in or a shower to rinse away the outdoors.

Choose from a double bedroom or a twin to rest and rejuvenate for the night, both neatly presented.

In the morning, enjoy a brew in the south-east facing garden with direct access to the river, dine alfresco in the afternoon, then admire the golden hues reflecting on the river as the sun sets.

For a family day out, families can visit BeWILDerwood Norfolk, zip across the ziplines, climb the treehouses, scramble across the jungle bridges and work through the maze.

Take a short drive to Norwich Castle, browse through the collection of archaeology, fine arts, and natural history, visit the dungeon or admire the views from the rooftop.

For a trip steeped in history and stunning architecture, visit Norwich Cathedral, tour this Roman church dating back to 1096, admire the stained glass windows and grand stature as you walk across the grounds, then enjoy a spot of lunch in the cafe.

Cotman Cottage is the perfect launchpad for exploring the Norfolk Broads, or simply watching the river drift by from your front-row seat.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
