Marshmere is a very warm comfortable spacious and light property. It has all you need in the kitchen. The cooker is now electric and not gas. The village and pubs are within easy walking distance and there is a short but nice walk to the local staithe which is behind the lovely church. The village is a pleasant stroll away with three pubs and tRead morehis property is in a very good location for exploring the Broards. The village of Ludham is nearby with a nice walk to How Hill. A visit to nearby Horsey Mere is a must to see the seal colony. Hide

Fishing is crowded with other cottages so near. Nowhere to keep equipment other than in the house. Picture was misleading.
