Presided over by a 14th-century church tower in the historic village of Worstead, this is a warm and welcoming holiday cottage within easy reach of both the Norfolk Coast and Norfolk Broads. With ample accommodation for six guests in three bedrooms, it’s ideal for a family holiday or a fun getaway with friends. Spend your days wandering coastal trails, exploring waterways and quaint market towns, and return home for al fresco feasts in the garden or sociable evenings in the lounge.
Set in the grounds of a village pub, this is a modern, single-storey cottage with high ceilings giving a sense of space and light. The heart of this abode is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Rustle up meals in the sleek, fitted kitchen, flooded with natural light from the skylights overhead, then gather around the dining table to savour your creations. Two large and comfortable sofas invite you to relax and unwind, whether watching the Smart TV or curled up with your holiday read, and patio doors lead out to an enclosed garden where you can dine alfresco. When it’s time to rest your head, choose between three spacious bedrooms, two doubles and a king-size, each with a Smart TV and an en-suite shower room.
With a fascinating history dating back over 500 years, Worstead is named after a type of cloth that was woven here during the Middle Ages. Midway between the market towns of North Walsham (3.5 miles) and Wroxham (6.5 miles), there are numerous places to sample local food and drink. It’s an easy ride to the Norfolk Coast (Happisburgh is 7 miles away) with a string of sandy beaches fringing the land, while the Norfolk Broads offer plenty of opportunities for messing about on the water.
