Potter Heigham Riverside Cottages – Sunray

The Cottage

Sunray is one of the Potter Heigham riverside cottages you may have already seen if you’ve been on a boat trip down the River Thurne or taken a riverside walk. We fell in love with the Potter Heigham riverside cottages when we first started visiting the area. Sunray has direct riverside access to the North West river bank of the river Thurne. Just a short walk to the Herbert Woods Boat Yard, approximately 5 minutes, along a path and footbridge to the back gate of the lodge. Please take note the frontage is not fenced so please take care with small children.

The lodge has recently been renovated to a very high specification and is equipped with everything you need for a wonderful riverside break. The lodge is very peaceful as access is by footpath only – there is no vehicular access to the lodge. The lodge may not be suitable for wheelchair users due to the unmade/uneven path and steep footbridge. If you have any accessibility requirements, please contact Kelly before booking to discuss.

Sunray has a parking space opposie the Nippy Chippy chip shop, space number 3. If this space is in use, you can park in the car park on Bridge Road, it is between the bridge and the chip shop, and you can park anywhere in the car park – please just put ‘Sunray’ on your dashboard.
