A striking cobblestone cottage with a sprawling enclosed lawn, shaded by mature oak trees and nestled in the sleepy village of Helhoughton. This delightful country retreat is the perfect space for friends and family escaping to the Norfolk coast with a couple of waggy-tailed pals in tow. Snuffle through the wildflower gardens of Holkham Hall (16 miles), then warm weary paws in the roaring glow of the wood burner set in a magnificent inglenook fireplace.
The epitome of cosy country living, this traditional property retains much of its original charm. Picture solid wooden beams and stone flooring complemented by clean lines and crisp neutral tones. Dry soggy paws before unwinding in the warmth of the living room. Lay the fire with the assistance of your furry companion then flop onto the soft sofas to graze through a snack board. Chop, zest, and sizzle in the characterful kitchen fitted with authentic farmhouse cabinetry. With the scent of supper drifting in the air, gather the pack for a celebratory feast around the dining table. Sip a nightcap in the bright conservatory and flex your musical muscle with an evening of entertainment on the keyboard. Retreat upstairs to find a generously sized double styled in earthy sage tones. Completing the property on the top level is a quirky twin nestled in the eaves of the cottage. Outside, playful pups can roam free in the light-dappled garden while you dine al fresco in the Norfolk sunshine.
Keep an ear perked for the annual ''Bark at the Park'' event (16 miles) or get tails wagging with a scamper through the salt marshes of Holkham National Nature Reserve (15 miles). Head to the Georgian town of Holt (17 miles) to stroll woodland trails before lunching at a local cafe where four-pawed patrons are warmly welcomed.
