Escape to the North Norfolk countryside with friends, family and a couple of canine companions with a stay at this charming cottage whose rustic exterior hides a stylish, contemporary interior. With a warming wood burner and two courtyard gardens, this lovely home is ready to host you, whatever the weather.

Step inside and into the open-plan lounge/diner, complete with plush leather sofas, a Smart TV, and a stylish wooden table and benches in a room flooded with natural light streaming through large windows. Cosy up by the wood burner, that’s sure to be popular with the furry members of your group, and lose yourself in a book or your favourite show. The well-equipped kitchen is ready and waiting for you to whip up delectable meals from the fresh farm finds you''ve gathered on your travels. After a day of adventure, retreat to the luxurious bathroom to soothe tired legs. As the stars twinkle above, gather on the patio for a nightcap before retiring to one of the three first-floor bedrooms - choose from a tranquil king-size bed, a serene double, or a cosy 4'' double. Warm summer evenings or fresh early mornings are made for al fresco dining in the enclosed rear garden, where you can enjoy delicious breakfasts and smoky BBQs, all while keeping children and hounds safe inside the fully enclosed borders.

Set in the heart of rural Norfolk, fabulous countryside walks to get tails wagging begin on your doorstep, and if you''re looking for dog-friendly activities in the area, there are many options to choose from. Head to the Marriott''s Way, a walking and cycling trail that follows the path of an old railway line and offers beautiful scenery with plenty of exciting sights, sounds and smells for Rover to investigate along the way. Alternatively, visit Fairhaven Woodland and Water Garden (18 miles), where you can take the lead on a walk through the peaceful gardens and enjoy the wildlife and scenery. For a day at the seaside, relax on the wide golden sands at Heacham Beach (7 miles), where four-pawed pals are welcome to join you year-round with no seasonal restrictions.

We really enjoyed the cottage and the beds were very comfortable as were the sofas. The location was a good base to explore the coast. Hunstanton was in easy reach by car. There was a good fish and chips shop, a lovely pub called "The Railway Inn" which did very good meals. The cottage was very clean and tidy.

This cottage is in a great location for exploring the North Norfolk coast. It had everything we needed. The bedroom set up was great with 2 teenagers who dont want to share a room on holiday any more!

Good position for visiting coast of north Norfolk. No view from the back of the property and is positioned in a small close where your only view is of cars with the associated properties.

This property is in a great location for exploring North Norfolk. The cottage was equipped well enough for our needs. I believe a bit of extra cleaning could have made the cottage a little less shabby looking. Beds were very comfortable.

We needed a relaxing and peaceful getaway after a very busy few months, and Woodcocks looked perfect - and it really was in reality. Set in a very quiet courtyard, off the main road, it was cosy and clean with extremely comfortable mattresses - something I am always anxious about when I go away! The location was perfect for visiting all along the nRead moreorth coast, and Brancaster beach close enough to drive to for an evening walk every day. We took our dogs but if your dogs like to sleep with you, this cottage isn't suitable as they are not allowed upstairs. The enclosed rear space was perfect for them to mooch around in and there were loads of walks nearby. We'd definitely stay again! And - the best fish and chips we'd had for years is right next door :-) Hide
