About this property
Deriving from the old English word for Heron, The Harnser encapsulates a little piece of Suffolk heritage. Tucked away in the heart of the charming market town of Beccles; this peaceful yet popular town, next to the River Waveney and a gateway to the Norfolk Broads, is the perfect escape for a romantic stay.
A striking dog-friendly property tucked away in the heart of this charming market town, a popular gateway to the Norfolk Broads. Featuring a stylish open-plan living area, a king-size bedroom and a small courtyard garden, this single-storey gem is perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway in the Waveney Valley and Norfolk Broads National Park.
Set off a narrow street lined by period properties next to the River Waveney, this contemporary property has been designed and built by local craftsmen. Each room is light and spacious, with stylish decor strewn across hard flooring. Snuggle up in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner throughout the day, a quiet spot for lazy mornings, streaming favourite programmes or romantic meals punctuated by time in the courtyard garden. The shower room offers underfloor heating and there is ample storage space in the king-sized bedroom. French doors lead from the lounge to the attractive courtyard garden, ideal for an alfresco brunch, a quick dognap or a BBQ supper in peace and privacy. A handy utility area can be found in the garage next door.
Beccles is a hive of activity whether you’re on the water or dry land. The mediaeval town is home to a plethora of independent shops, cafes and dog-friendly pubs, as well as being one of the many launch pads for dog-friendly boat journeys up the Waveney and the wider Broads. There are many characterful towns and villages along the Suffolk Heritage Coast with Southwold, Kessingland and Walberswick (within 15.5 miles) amongst the most popular thanks in part to their attractive shorelines.

We have just returned from a fabulous week staying at The Harnser......excellent central location, very well equipped and comfortable bed! The hosts Jen and Alan are so helpful, friendly but not at all intrusive. Would have no qualms about recommending to friends and family.
