Occupying a serene spot in the heart of the bucolic Norfolk countryside, this delightful bungalow makes a lovely hideaway for families and friends seeking a tranquil holiday. Surrounded by acres of open farmland, the property offers welcoming accommodation for up to six guests, and has plenty of space for a pair of furry, four-pawed pals to come along for peaceful country walks. Set on a picturesque arable working farm, and featuring a bright sunny garden, this spacious cottage is a wonderful retreat for walkers, cyclists, nature lovers and their pets exploring the area’s quaint villages, beautiful woodlands and country lanes.

On entering this charming single-level property, the spacious and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner provides a sociable and welcoming space to unwind in at the end of a great day. The cosy lounge is perfect for snuggling up to watch a movie in the evenings, with the handsome dining table surrounded by the fully equipped kitchen. Exploring further, the bungalow offers a relaxing bathroom and a choice of three light, tasteful bedrooms: a sweet twin and two cheerful doubles, one with a TV and en-suite shower room. Stepping outside, the pretty garden has lovely rural views which you can take in from the private patio which has plenty of outdoor furniture and a BBQ, providing an ideal spot for dining alfresco on a sunny afternoon as your canine companions run around the lawn.

The friendly villages of Swannington (3 miles) and Tavernham (4 miles) make this a great base for country walks, with the River Wensum and its fishing lakes 2.5 miles west. The historic city of Norwich (10 miles) has plenty of great dog-friendly places to eat and drink, with popular walks for your four-legged friends to lead you along including Mousehold Heath, Eaton Park and The Close surrounding the cathedral.
