A Character Gem on the Broads
We (four late 50 year olds, two 80+s & two medium sized dogs) had a great weeks hols in Waterside. The location is fab with great footpath/track straight from the house for walking the dogs. Fab views of Hickling Broad. Free use of a little rowing boat for a bit of fun on the Broad. Great food pub, The Greyhound (quiz on Sunday) within 1/2 a mile. Good wifi but some phone networks needed seeking out in the garden.
The house is old which brings with it some quirks - main stairs are fine but the "back" stairs to the larger twin room are small narrow & very steep so would not be suitable for the very young or old and the only other way in/out of this room is through the sloping ceilinged twin room, all the doors are t&g with noisy latches not all of which are the easiest to close and no matter how well you clean there will always be the odd cobweb, spider & bit of surface dust but these are all things that are to be expected of an older character property. - We loved it.
The kitchen worked well, the dining room was plenty big enough, the lounge was very comfortable and the large "lobby" area was great for the dogs & wet gear. No one complained about the beds or bedrooms. It was handy having a bathroom upstairs & downstairs (although the large twin room had to negotiate the steep stairs or go through the other bedroom to access them) and we all agreed that we'd happily return and recommend it to others.
