Set in the peaceful village of Whissonsett, this characterful cottage is made for memorable getaways with family and friends. Sleeping up to ten guests, it’s surrounded by open countryside, with walking routes leading straight from the doorstep through rural Norfolk.
Inside, the cottage blends heritage charm with contemporary comfort. Original wooden beams hint at its history, while thoughtful updates create a welcoming and stylish interior. The generous entrance hall has plenty of room for coats and boots, along with a handy ground-floor shower room. The kitchen is a standout, with parquet flooring, a large skylight, high-quality appliances, and breakfast bar seating for casual meals. For more formal gatherings, the dining room comfortably seats all ten guests and opens out through bi-fold doors to the garden on warmer days. Two separate living areas give everyone room to spread out: a main lounge with a wood burner and Smart TV, and a snug with its own wood burner and a sofa bed for additional guests if needed. There’s also a cosy library with books to browse and a small bar area, as well as a dedicated dog crate room. Upstairs, four beautifully styled bedrooms await: a super-king-size, a double and two twins. A family bathroom with a striking slipper bath adds a touch of indulgence to the first floor. Outside, the garden continues to impress. The patio, accessed via the dining room, is set up for outdoor meals, while a separate garden area is filled with colourful planting, a gentle water feature and tucked-away seating spots for quieter moments. Private parking for three cars completes the picture.
Nearby, the market towns of Fakenham (5 miles) and Dereham (8.5 miles) bring a mix of shops and places to eat, while younger visitors will love a trip to ROARR! Dinosaur Adventure (13.5 miles). The coast is within easy reach too – head to Wells-next-the-Sea (15 miles) for wide sandy beaches and seal-spotting opportunities, or spend a day exploring the historic streets, cathedral and culture of Norwich (23 miles).
