Description

Swan Cottage sleeps 6 people in 3 bedrooms. Situated on the riverside, with a private mooring, just off the main River Bure, this modern, comfortably furnished home makes a perfect year round retreat.

At the very heart of Broadlands' liveliest village, Swan Cottage is an excellent location for fishing, sailing, cycling, walking and bird watching. The River Bure divides Wroxham and Hoveton, with the two villages commonly called Wroxham, one of the major boat hire centres on the Norfolk Broads. Free WiFi/Broadband Internet access.
