Norfolk Broads Holiday Cottages

Norfolk Broads holiday cottages are among the most romantic in the world. These lands were created by medieval peat digging, and all manner of rare wildlife have flourished in the protective swathes of reed. Ornithologists are more than catered for in this prolific wilderness and a cottage can be an excellent place to retire with photographs, or pour a cup of cocoa and start sketching. Artists will also love these Norfolk holiday cottages, as a perfect place to hole up, or explore the local area with a box of oil pastels, fixative and a roll of canvas. The verdant local countryside offers a plethora of subject matter, from wide skies to reeds to crumbling buildings, remnants of ancient eras.

If you prefer to stay in an approximation of a family home, then one of the holiday cottages in Norwich could be just what the doctor ordered. These city dwellings still enjoy lush gardens and shaded patio areas, but are handy for the bright lights of Norwich city. Groups of friends will feel right at home, and easily whip up great dinners in a shiny fitted kitchen - with everything you could need from a non stick pan to a mushroom brush.

Southwold Cottages on the Suffolk Coast

Suffolk coast holiday cottages offer the taste of salt air with the comfort of home - but remember this is an occasion where location location location is the key. There's no point in having a glorious town house ten miles from the sea. Better to book an acceptable bungalow on the seafront - these Aldeburgh cottages are neat, adequately equipped and often metres from the beach. If you prefer the beach hut and pier sort of holiday, take a trip and stay in one of the Southwold cottages dotted around the quay, town centre and outskirts.
