Property code: 91344

This sweet bolthole is a delightful spot for a couple or solo traveller, located deep within the charming Norfolk countryside. It’s just 15 miles from the North Norfolk National Landscape, home to sand dune-backed beaches, salt marshes, chalkland and traditional seaside resorts. You’ll be 2 miles from the nearest pub and within easy reach of local beauty spots like Swanton Morley Waterfalls (8 miles) and Sculthorpe Moor Nature Reserve (6 miles), home to vibrant wildflowers and birds of prey.?

On arrival, climb two steps to the front door and head into the annexe, featuring a bright, open-plan living area painted in soothing hues. There’s a well-equipped kitchen, a comfy lounge area with a Smart TV and a cosy dining table for two. The double bedroom is simple yet stylishly furnished with artwork on the walls and a sweet sliding shutter on the window. Across the hall is a wet room-style shower room. Outside, you'll have an enclosed courtyard with shrubs and flowers, complete with a table and chairs for eating outside. You’re also welcome to make use of the expansive front garden and a pet-enclosed 1.7-acre field.

The home is surrounded by pretty rolling hills, with plenty of walking and cycling routes nearby taking you across remote and pretty land – a dream if you’re holidaying with pets. Why not plan a day trip to a charming seaside town like Wells-next-the-Sea (14 miles) – fish-and-chip lunches obligatory, either eating in or enjoying the views on the seafront. The magnificent estates and grounds at Sandringham (9 miles) and Holkham (18 miles) will delight culture vultures, or perhaps a scenic round of golf in Fakenham (5 miles) will tickle your fancy.

Norfolk Dumpling is a great cottage in a wonderful location. The enclosed field is a superb facility and there are a number of dog friendly walks nearby. Tony and Sara could not have been more friendly and helpful from the moment they met us on arrival. We really hope to visit again in the future.

This small one bedroom cottage was perfect for me and my wife and two dogs. The owners provided us with a welcome pack. The dogs too had their own welcome pack which was lovely. Sara and Tom could not have been nicer or more helpful. Our dogs absolutely loved the field and garden and were allowed to treat it like their own home. There are peacocks Read morein the grounds which are wonderful and a privilege to see. They are almost tame. All in all we had a lovely week and we would love to return. Hide

Norfolk dumpling was a real little gem. And Tony and his wife were such lovely people. The enclosed field for our two wheaten terriers an absolute godsend. Worth it just for the field alone. Our dogs loved it. Not to mention the hysteria caused by the proximity to 5+ peacocks. Omg!!!
