This gorgeous, thatched cottage surrounded by traditional cottage gardens is perfect for couples, friends or families looking for a tranquil holiday in some of North Norfolk’s prettiest countryside. Edingthorpe lies within the Quiet Lanes area of the county, and these lanes are designed to have less traffic and encourage walking, cycling or riding. You are close to the beautiful coastline and two miles away is the sandy beach at Bacton, where you can look out for seals.
This characterful three-storey property has retained its beautiful original exposed wooden ceiling beams throughout and combined them delightfully with contemporary furnishings and colourful decor. On the ground floor is an open-plan living/dining/kitchen, with the sitting area boasting plenty of comfortable seating. Throw a log on the wood burner in the cooler months while you cosy up and watch the TV. The kitchen has everything needed to prepare memorable meals, so try some delicious local ingredients. A stable door from the kitchen leads to the garden. The first floor has a twin bedroom and a family bathroom. Up again to the second floor, you’ll find a double bedroom with exposed beams. Step outside to soak up the pretty gardens to the front and rear with pathways, lawns, and garden seating to relax.
The stately homes of Felbrigg and Blickling Hall, run by the National Trust, are less than 15 miles. Wroxham (11.5 miles), the gateway to The Broads National Park, is the perfect place to take a boat trip on the miles of waterways or enjoy a walk along the river. The lovely beach of Mundesley is 3.5 miles, and further down the coast is the iconic red and white striped lighthouse at Happisburgh Beach (6.5 miles). Wildlife lovers should head to the seal colony at Horsey Gap (16 miles).
