The spacious property has two lounge areas, as well as a large garden for al fresco entertaining, and is full of period charm. The area is a paradise for walkers, with the long-distance Weaver''s Way passing through the village, leading to the seaside town of Cromer. For shopping and eating out, Holt is just over 10 miles away.

This traditional Norfolk cottage is bursting with character, with original flint walls and exposed beams. On the ground floor is a fantastic social area, with a grand dining hall with a double-height ceiling, wood burner, and ample space for entertaining. There''s also an attractive lounge on this level, with patio doors to the garden, and a spacious kitchen. When it''s time for bed, choose from three tastefully decorated ground-floor bedrooms.

Cromer (4.5 miles) has everything you could want from a Victorian seaside town, including a sandy beach, promenade, and pier. During summer months, there''s even a variety show at the end of the pier, in the Pavilion Theatre. Another popular coastal town is Sheringham (6.5 miles), known for its heritage steam train that journeys through the picturesque countryside to Holt.

Absolutely beautiful home, with every single thing you could think of provided. The cleanest accommodation weve ever stayed at, and just so thoughtfully done. We stayed as a three-generational family holiday (from 18 months to 66 years) and the location was perfect. Everything we wanted to do seemed to be writhing 30 minutes drive of where weRead more were. Thank you, and we will definitely be back! Hide

Excellent cottage, well looked after, and a pleasure to return to, as we have done for some years now. Much the best of a number of Norfolk holiday cottages we have stayed at.
