This charming cottage, situated just 8 miles from historic Norwich, is perfect for a couple and their dog to enjoy a romantic retreat. Sleeping you both in a beautiful double bedroom with views out to the garden, this single-level property is in an ideal position for exploring the coast and countryside. Head off to Happisburgh Beach (17.5 miles) which is dog friendly all year round, or hire a boat from Wroxham (7 miles) and sail the Broads.
As soon as you step into this holiday home, you’re greeted by exposed bricks, wooden beams and traditional styling in an open-plan living area. Pretty pastel tiles in the kitchen area make it a pleasure to cook in, and you can dine at the table by the window while the pup snoozes at your feet. Retire to the comfortable sofa and snuggle up together, watching TV or reading a book before bed. The bedroom is bright and airy and promotes a peaceful night’s sleep, with quirky traditional features and an armchair to enjoy the view from the window. Take a sumptuous soak or an invigorating shower in the contemporary bathroom. Outside, enjoy the shared enclosed garden and summer house, or head down the pathways to explore the owner’s grounds where you may spot some sheep!
Head off on the Bure Valley Railway (6 miles) and enjoy a drink with your pup in the cafe after your journey. The How Hill Trust (12.5 miles) is ideal for walkies around its secret gardens and woodland trails where the dog will love sniffing around. Ross’ Wildlife Boat Trips (21 miles) will give you the opportunity to see the wildlife around Horsey in the spring and summer months up until October; from this month onwards, you can book a private tour by prior arrangement.
