Caracol

Walking in through Caracol reveals a fully equipped family home laid out across two floors with space to spare. Downstairs holds the living and dining areas, a kitchen fitted with a range cooker and dishwasher, a utility room, and conservatory, plus one bedroom with kingsize bed and ensuite wet room. Three more bedrooms occupy the first floor—two with kingsize beds and one with twin singles—each with its own ensuite. A fifth bathroom serves the upper level. Five bathrooms across four bedrooms means no queue in the mornings. Throughout the house, electricity, Wi-Fi, bed linen and towels are included.

The property sits directly on the water's edge of the Broads. A lawned, enclosed garden runs down to the river, with a sitting area, garden furniture and barbecue. Private parking accommodates three cars. One dog is welcome. The river itself is unfenced at the front boundary. This is a working waterway—mooring space comes with the booking, and the owner can arrange use of an eight-seat private motor launch for an additional charge, giving direct access to the surrounding villages and waterways. Fishing from the garden and balcony is possible in season with a licence. Wroxham, the heart of Broads tourism, lies minutes away with restaurants, shops and boat hire. BeWILDerwood and Wroxham Barns are short drives, the coast and sandy beaches roughly twelve miles north. Non-smoking only.
