About this cottage rental

Seymour Cottage is a cosy Victorian cottage centrally located in the picturesque Norfolk Broads village of Horning and is just across the road from the river. Features include entrance hall, bathroom, open plan lounge/kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, TV, CD Player, DVD player, electric storage heating, front courtyard garden, secluded upstairs patio, use of small private staithe on the river, private car parking. COTTAGE SWAPS CONSIDERED.

What can I do here?: The three main attractions are the Norfolk Broads (rivers and lakes) with rural countryside, the historic cathedral city of Norwich and the wonderful sandy Norfolk Coastline including the bustling seaside resorts of Cromer and Great Yarmouth. All this is less than 30 minutes drive from the cottage.

What are the Norfolk Broads?: The Norfolk Broads are a unique combination of slow meandering rivers with beautiful lakes (locally known as Broads). The river banks include thatched cottages with immaculate lawns (and gardens), reed beds (used for roof thatching) and many pretty staithes (a local word for a place to moor your boat). The best way to enjoy this wonderful National Park is either on-foot or by boat. Boats can be either hired (by the hour or day) or take an organised trip - Norfolk boats are either motor cruisers or traditional wooden sailing yachts.

We love the Norfolk Broads and have already had a boating holiday this year so fancied something different. So we booked Seymour Cottage. Its a lovely cosy little cottage with everything you could possibly want or need. It doesn't have a riverside view but is straight opposite the pub which is on the river. Fabulous stay and would recommend.

Delightful stay in Seymour Cottage, Horning

Delightful stay in Seymour Cottage, Horning

Seymour Cottage has a lovely cosy feel. It is in beautiful condition and is well appointed. Also, our bed was very comfortable. The central position in Horning puts it within very short walking distance (5 minutes or so) of two great pub/resteraunts and a couple of lovely cafes. We really enjoyed our stay.

The cottage had everything we needed for a short stay. Clean, well equipped and in a fabulous location. Horning has everything, riverside pubs, restaurants and lots of other shops. So, even though it has everything it is still a nice quiet small village.

Great location

Great location

Lovely little cottage located in Central Horning. Parked a large van just fine on the driveway and enjoyed a relaxed weekend fishing and exploring the broads by boat. Only downside is setting the smoke alarm off in the main living area whenever oven was turned on! All in all a lovely weekend using this little cottage as a great base!

A cosy cottage in the centre of Horning, ideally located for touring the Broads and the beautiful countryside of Norfolk. Well equipped with all the basics needed for a couples stay. Parking is a little tight but once you get used to reversing in it does work.

This cottage is very quaint , small and compact and although there’s a terrace off the rear bedroom it lacks seating area with any kind of view , we had a few minor issues regarding the bins not being emptied prior to our arrival and a few cleanliness issues but the owner was prompt to message me back and tried to resolve this

Perfect little cottage located near the centre of Horning

Lovely little cottage which had everything we needed. Perfectly located for boat hire 10 min walk away, Chinese takeaway 2 min walk and village centre 5mins away. We had lovely meals at the Swan Inn and Bure River Cottage restaurant. Cosy warm cottage, shower good and powerful too. Great communication with the owner Ruth too. Would have loved a washing machine/tumble dryer for our towels but not sure where it would go and we managed fine for the week. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Very pleasant week in the lovely village of Horning. The property is as described, and has everything for a week's stay available, including wifi which wasn't available when we booked. The upstairs patio is a suntrap, and the communication with Ruth, the owner, was always prompt and friendly. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

After what has been a horrid year for nearly everyone, this was the perfect little cottage and village to escape to, and re energise. We could not fault the cottage and it was ideally situated for not just the Broads at Horning but also for touring the immediate areas such as Wroxham and Coltishall. We look forward to returning to your cottage again soon. We left feeling totally reinvigorated.
