Situated in Repps With Bastwick, Norfolk, this enchanting 300-year-old converted windmill offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern comforts, accommodating up to five guests. The property is designed with a Norfolk Broads and film theme, incorporating elements reminiscent of the James Bond franchise, making it an ideal romantic getaway or a family retreat. Guests can enjoy stunning 360-degree views of the surrounding landscape, engage in outdoor activities like fishing from the private mooring, or embark on boat trips across the picturesque broads.
Upon entering the windmill, visitors are greeted by a circular industrial-style kitchen equipped with modern amenities, including an electric oven, microwave, and washer/dryer. The kitchen flows into a bright and airy lounge/dining area, featuring stylish sofas, one of which converts into a double sofa bed.

The windmill's unique layout includes a half spiral staircase leading to a cozy mezzanine double bedroom overlooking the lounge.
