We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Sam was very good at the handover and giving us the instructions for the boat. The house is set in an idyllic part of the river and close to the broads. It was nice and peaceful, although if you stay during the summer I'm sure the river would be a lot busier. When we found a problem with the heating it was no trouble for Sam to come and sort it out. Plenty of places to go that are not too far away. We would definitely like to stay again.

Although the property is quite old, and some areas could do with a bit of repair as near the end of the season, the overall character and location more than made up for this.

We have just returned from another lovely family holiday (three generations) on the Norfolk Broads - this time staying at Southover.We found a well-appointed holiday home in the sunshine on the edge of the river; a hot tub; a boat; a canoe; a games room and a 'resident' heron - what more could you want?

Wow! Wow! Wow! What an amazing property. Very quirky and in a fabulous location (we were treated to daily sightings of kingfisher and even a pair of otters!)We quickly got used to the uneven floor (it's a very old building built on stilts), there was everything we needed in the kitchen and plenty of space for a group of 9. One of the group found their bed too soft but you can't please everyone.The boat and kayak were just the icing on the cake for this property, oh and the hottub is massive!Would highly recommend!

The space is lovely. Right on the river. Having the use of the boat and canoe was fantastic. The hot tub was lovely and easy for people to get in and out of because of the decking. The games room was a great addition. Location was excellent. Overall a great place to stay.

We had a fabulous holiday in this lovely, quirky property. The location is absolutely brilliant and we really enjoyed the use of the day-boat to go into Wroxham and to explore some of the Broads. The house is lovely, however the outside area of the property is a little tired and some of the outdoor furniture could do with being replaced. The property owner was really helpful and was very quick to help with the 2 small issues we had during our stay. A really lovely holiday!
