This beautiful Breckland abode is the perfect place for couples to reconnect, with a lovely open-plan living area and blissful en-suite bedroom. Pet friendly, it’s located in a quiet village within striking distance of the North Norfolk coast.
Norfolk’s big skies and unspoilt countryside set the scene for a romantic break at this contemporary single-storey property. Park on the driveway and stroll through the welcoming hallway into a social space that’s full of light thanks to a skylight and floor-to-ceiling sliding doors. Reclining leather chairs and a Smart TV offer home-from-home entertainment at one end of this room. When it’s time to eat, head to the kitchen, which is sleek and houses all the essentials for effortless self-catering. Take your seats at the dining table and you can still stay tuned into your favourite viewing as there’s a second Smart TV close by. When it’s time to sleep, the bedroom is super-soothing, with a king-size bed and another Smart TV for late-night movies and early-morning news updates. An en-suite shower room completes your comfort. Those sliding doors in the lounge area lead straight into a courtyard garden where there’s a choice of furniture and a lovely tree-lined backdrop. This outdoor space is fully enclosed for pet owners’ peace of mind.

Wildlife-lovers will find plenty to please at Pensthorpe near Fakenham (11 miles). The golden sands of Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham Beach are within 23 miles, and the parkland of the Sandringham Royal Estate is 19 miles from your doorstep.
