Located on the edge of the beautiful Norfolk Fens in the village of Welney, this pet-friendly cottage offers the perfect holiday retreat for a couple or a small family. Wonderful views and a lovely garden make this a very special place for a relaxing holiday.

Steps lead from the parking lot to the front door, where you’ll enter a cosy open-plan lounge/diner. Settle down on the plump sofa and warm your feet in front of the roaring open fire. After a day of roaming the open countryside, catch up with your favourite shows on the TV/DVD player. To the rear, there’s a dining table set for four guests and a separate well-equipped kitchen. The property benefits from a downstairs family bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC. Upstairs, you’ll find two delightful bedrooms comprised of a king-size bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a twin bedroom. The master bedroom has a zip-and-link which can be made into a twin bedroom on request, while the twin bedroom has two zip-and-link beds that can be made into a super-king-size on request. Enjoy sunny afternoons in the front enclosed lawn.  In addition to the garden there is a communal green opposite the rear of the cottage with a picnic bench.

We enjoyed our stay. The cottage is cosy, the beds very comfortable and the kitchen well-equipped. WiFi reception was good, though mobile reception is poor. The staircase, being steep and narrow, is probably unsuitable for anyone unsteady on their feet. The cottage is well placed for visiting Ely (which has free parking!) and the Lamb & Flag acroRead moress the road does an excellent meal. Hide
