With vast gardens and a spacious, contemporary interior, this single-storey property is ideal for families and groups looking for the best of coast and country. Sleeping six, plus two dogs, there is something for everyone with a dedicated games room and tempting spots to curl up with a good book. By day though, you’ll want to be out exploring the stunning surroundings, with the Norfolk coast and Norfolk Broads close by.

Lovingly renovated in 2018, the house is immediately welcoming, with a calm, neutral scheme throughout. Here you can dry sandy paws in the utility room before stepping into the light and airy lounge, where you’ll want to do nothing more than curl up beside the wood effect electric fire that provides a cosy, warm atmosphere on those cooler nights. The kitchen/diner is the perfect spot for guests celebrating any occasion, with ample space for festivities. On warm, sunny days, why not dine alfresco in the large garden, where the owners have enclosed a section to allow children and their four-legged friends to roam and enjoy. Little kids and big kids alike will love indulging their competitive streaks in the games room, with a pool table, darts, and an assortment of games that are great for any rainy days or nights in.

Discover the charming coastal towns of Wells-next-the-Sea (15 miles), and Blackeney (20 miles), where you can board a boat to visit the resident seal colony. Seafood fans will delight at the fresh fare available in the area - particularly in Cromer (28.5 miles), famous for its crab. Enjoy long walks along the Norfolk Broads (28 miles) as you follow its magical waterways, or perhaps hire a boat and explore them from the water. Keen cyclists, meanwhile, will love Fakenham’s location on the National Cycle Network (5 miles).

An absolutely glorious find!! Spacious, airy and comfortable accommodation with everything you need for a real home from home experience. The garden is the real gem of this property - extremely large with areas of seating for everyone's preference be you a sun loving person or one to sit in the shade listening to the birdsong of which there is plenRead morety. Perfect for children to run around in to their heart's content or your furry companion to have a walk and sniff round at their leisure - the whole area is fully secure. The location is one that's both peaceful and, if you're people who just want to fully rest and recuperate, a real sanctuary to de-stress. Although rural and in a small hamlet, by car there are lovely places to visit within a 30 minute drive such as Sandringham, Sherringham, Thetford Forest and the glorious beaches of North Norfolk. A definite place we want to return to. Hide
