Offering an escape like no other, come and be enchanted by this exceptional property which will leave you wanting to return again and again.

This charming two bedroom cottage has been designed to the highest of standards with the holidaymaker in mind, to enable you to experience the natural beauty of this very special area.

As you enter down the private road and go over the bridge you will instantly get a feel for the natural solitude of this wonderful property, located on the edge of the River Waveney. The cottage is raised to prevent any risk of flooding giving exceptional views over the meadows and waterways.

The property has been presented with a funky, ethnic feel with the character of the surroundings taken in to consideration throughout.

 

Step into the character-rich open plan living area, with the kitchen having doors opening to the decking beyond, to maximise on the river views.

There is a small shower room located just inside the main door, perfect for cleaning up after a day walking or even swimming or kayaking on the river. A couple of steps up from the main living area lead to a snug area with bunk beds and TV. The room gives access to the two good-sized en-suite bedrooms.

Looking out from your decked area you can enjoy magnificent views and wildlife whilst enjoying a morning coffee; this is the perfect spot for planning your day or dining alfresco on a summers evening. Guests are able to enjoy some of the fantastic wild swimming opportunities in the river surrounding you.

 

The waterways have been highlighted as a fantastic spot for this and were one of Roger Deakins favourite spots according to his well-known book, Waterlog, and are also excellent for fishing and kayaking.

From your doorstep you are spoilt for choice on footpaths and bridleways linking you to village pubs and beautiful locations, including the village of Mendham famous for its association with the horse artist Sir Arthur Munnings.
