Property code: OC-2251

Escape to the countryside in this gorgeous holiday home in the pretty village of Chedgrave. The property sits near the southern end of the Broads National Park, offering fantastic walking and boating opportunities. You’ll also be just 19 miles from the coast, with popular resorts such as Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth within easy reach. The historic city of Norwich is also just 12.5 miles from the cottage.

Arrive at the property, which is set on a livestock farm, via the beautiful landscaped parkland of a private school. Inside, you’ll be greeted by a spacious, open-plan living area. This homely space is decorated in a contemporary style and has a lounge area with a Smart TV, books, and games, providing the perfect place to relax after a day of sightseeing. There’s also a sleek kitchen area for preparing delicious dinners, and a dining table to seat all four guests. At night, choose from two inviting bedrooms, both decorated in fresh, calming tones. A stylish bathroom completes this inviting holiday home. Outside, to the rear of the cottage is a sunny, enclosed private courtyard with furniture for al fresco dining. This leads to a shared lawn area with plenty of space for children to play. The front courtyard shares an entrance with the neighbouring property.

The area is a paradise for walkers, with picturesque routes taking you from the village along the River Chet or following the long-distance Wherryman’s Way. Chedgrave is a great base from which to explore the Southern Broads, which are often quieter and more secluded than their northern counterparts. Nearby highlights include Oulton Broad (19 miles) with its fantastic array of water sports and the idyllic Broadlands market town of Beccles (10 miles). Alternatively, for a day at the seaside, head to the sandy shores of Lowestoft (19 miles).

Cottage very clean and well equipped. The owner has made a black file with lots of useful information about the local area as well as further afield. The cottage is situated in a very quiet, peaceful location and it was a joy to sit on the back patio in the evening after a busy day sightseeing.

Well thought out and well equipped cottage and nice personal greeting from owner. Only slight surprise was that it was further from the road than expected, about a mile along a private access road. Not a problem, just a bit surprised.
