Overview
Property code: OC-1902

This splendid property near to the coast, in the idyllic village of Bodham is an excellent base for a couple or family looking for a tranquil holiday with their favourite four-legged friend in this beautiful part of Norfolk. There are wonderful walks in the area and Weybourne Beach (3 miles) is happy for four paws all year round, although some areas are closed off during the year for nesting birds.

Enter this airy, light-filled and welcoming single-storey home and your attention is drawn to the striking open-plan living/kitchen/dining room with exposed beams in the high vaulted ceiling. This wonderful living area is perfect for relaxing at the end of a day exploring. The living area has plenty of plush seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner to chase away the chill and let four paws relax, warmed from nose to tail. At the back of the area is a stylishly designed kitchen with everything you need to whip up a wide selection of your favourite dishes. You have a choice of two tastefully decorated bedrooms - a double with TV and a charming king-size bedroom with TV and en-suite shower room. Rounding off the property is a family bathroom. Step outside into the enclosed courtyard with a table and chairs making this a quiet spot for morning coffee, an evening drink or dining alfresco on sunny days.

The popular seaside resort of Cromer (7 miles) has a Victorian pier that your dog will love to explore, a charming seafront and a lovely sandy beach. Inland, you can spend a day in the elegant Georgian town of Holt (4 miles) with its unique boutiques and relaxing places to eat. Alternatively, the National Trust properties at Felbrigg (6.5 miles) and Blickling (10 miles) offer something for everyone to enjoy. Animal lovers and sea dogs will want to take a boat trip to the seal colony at Blakeney Point (8 miles).

The cottage was well equiped and in a good location. Beds were comfy, some nights the ensuite bedroom was quiet cold but apart from that everything was fine.

The cottage is ideal for visiting the north Norfolk coast and surrounding areas. There is a village pub virtually next door. Apart from that no village shop so you have to drive to Holt which is only about 10 mins away. The cottage was clean and the kitchen well fitted out with equipment which was ideal as we cooked Christmas dinner there. We weRead morere not able to control the heating which switched off at 10:00 so we felt a little chilly in the evenings. Hide

Fieldmouse Barn was a really lovely property and spotlessly clean . The village is small with only a pub next door but set back a short way from the main road meant it was quiet . The kitchen equipment was of good quality and cleaning materials very generous . Cooker , fridge , washer etc in good working order .

Heating wasn't on until I complained. Mat by door slips. No non stick mat in shower. Wasn't made clear that I should book a cleaner for a 2 week stay. Lighting very poor to read by. Chest of drawers in 2ndbedroom are falling apart. Welcome pack was poor.

The property was exactly as described. It was excellently situated,very handy for the beach . The barn was immaculately presented, spotlessly clean with good quality appliances. Would definitely stay there again and would happily recommend Original Cottages to family and friends.

The property was lovely. However, our relaxation and comfort was disturbed by the dog in the pub next door. One morning it barked from 7- 8:30 am. Not good when you want a lie in. We did speak to a barman in the pub and he said the dog was kept in the garden and a young boy torments it? This has put us off staying at the property again. Also the cRead morelock in the hallway ticks very loudly. Hide

Cleanliness - bath surround was dirty, grill in kitchen not cleaned after previous use and dusty behind TV. Equipment - the lack of a proper bathroom shower in the second bedroom (tap attachment difficult to fit and did not stay in place) was disappointing. In the interests of saving water I would recommend proper showers are fitted in all bathroomRead mores. Hide
