Enjoying a tranquil rural location in the heart of Norfolk, this cheerful single-level property makes a fantastic getaway for couples exploring the beautiful countryside of this peaceful area. Offering spacious and cosy accommodation for two, the cottage has plenty of room for a pair of canine companions to come with you to explore the Broads or head into Norwich. Standing in the grounds of the owner’s property on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Frettenham, this delightful retreat is surrounded by horse paddocks and beautiful views, with a charming patio perfect for dining alfresco.

The airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has a high ceiling and French doors allowing plenty of light to stream in. The lounge offers lovely views and is perfect for snuggling up to watch a movie at the end of a great day. To the rear of the space there’s a dining table ideal for a romantic meal which you can cook in the stylish, beautifully arranged kitchen. The property also offers a spacious super-king-size bedroom, decorated in warm neutral tones, alongside a refreshing wet room. Outside, a step leads down from the French doors onto the sweet patio. Featuring plenty of outdoor furniture, this is a lovely space to sit back and enjoy a drink in the evening as your four-legged friends run about the large enclosed garden.

The Paddocks was above and beyond our expectations. The location was so peaceful, the owner was welcoming, we even had a cream tea waiting when we arrived. We will definitely return to the Paddocks.
