Now with WiFi Broadband Internet access. Wroxham and Hoveton are divided by the River Bure, with the two villages generally referred to as Wroxham. It is one of the Norfolk Broads largest boat hire centres where you can enjoy river trips, hire a boat, enjoy some fishing, sailing, golf, cycling or walking with nature trails to follow. Sandy beaches can be found just twelve miles away and the City of Norwich with its beautiful cathedral, castle, museum, theatre and superb shopping is just eight miles. The village of Wroxham is home to Wroxham Barns, the Bure Valley Railway and Roys - the largest village store in the country. Here you will find riverside pubs, restaurants and shops that are just a short stroll from Waterside Retreat. The area of Wroxham is actually made up of two villages - Wroxham and Hoveton, split by a low bridge that spans the River Bure. Wroxham is often referred to as the 'Capital of the Norfolk Broads' and is an ideal location to stay at for a variety of reasons: There are plentiful places to eat and drink locally! Wroxham boasts Roys store which claims to the “largest village store in the Country”. Here you will find all your grocery needs with many products being sourced locally as well as a large department store – plenty of retail opportunities to indulge in and only a 5 minute walk.

The Broads is well known for its’ fishing activity – you should expect to find perch, pike, bream, rudd, eel and tench in the waters here. Fishing (subject to season and licence) can be enjoyed from the decking at all our properties. We would obviously be remiss if we didn’t mention the joy of just being out on the water. Within a couple of minutes walk from each property, it is easy to hire a boat by the hour, half day, day or longer. If you fancy a boat trip but without you being the Captain, there are a number of organised boat trips which leave from the centre of Wroxham or from nearby Horning.

We booked the property to celebrate an 80th birthday. Couldn't have wished for better. The ground floor bedroom and bathroom were ideal as one of our party was disabled. All the family really enjoyed their stay. It was situated in a quiet residential area and within walking distance of a variety of shops, pub and other eateries. Being on the waterfront was an added bonus. It was hilarious watching my daughter and son in law trying to row the tender. Our little dog also enjoyed her stay. Plenty of nice walks close by. It's a memory that we will treasure. Thank you.

Chill out week

Lovely house, plenty of space for 8 people although we were only a party of 4 due to Covid. We went out for lunches and evening meals as that was our choice, but the facilities at Bright Side for cooking are spot on, so well equipped. Comfortable beds and powerful showers, we all loved it and have booked again for later this year. Highly recommend.

Nicely situated for shops, pubs, restaurants

Lovely situated property! Did find the lounge a bit over crowded with furniture and would of liked more blinds or curtains up as felt quite vulnerable especially as early winter nights, bedrooms and bathrooms comfortable and clean, sofas need a good clean in between cushions as full of things other people have left behind! Lovely modern clean kitchen! Hosts easy to contact and will resolve any problems. Summer here would be lovely as you can open bifolds for more space overlooking the river

Excellent location.

The house is very well equipped and has lovely outside space. Located in a quiet residential area and next to the river with plenty of wildlife. Walking distance to restaurants, cafes and boat hire etc. Are group was two active couples in our 60s and enjoyed our stay in the area. The property may not be suitable for families with small children as it has the river at the bottom of the garden and is not fenced off.
