In the heart of pretty Snettisham, this contemporary cottage is ideally located for exploring the North West Norfolk coastline and countryside. Pet-friendly, it features a chic open-plan social space, sleeping arrangements to suit any party of five, and a sunny courtyard garden.
A shared car park allows you to unpack at your own pace. Step through the front door and there’s a handy cloakroom off the entrance hall. Beyond, the open-plan social space combines kitchen, dining and lounge areas – the latter featuring comfortable sofas arranged before a Smart TV and a flame-effect electric heater. A modern dining suite sits beside patio doors and conveniently close to the kitchen, where you’ll find all the must-haves of home. Head upstairs when it’s time for sleep. The main bedroom has a king-size bed, TV and an en-suite shower room, while the other two bedrooms – a twin and a single room – share use of a family bathroom. Step through those patio doors from the dining area and the private courtyard garden has a BBQ, outdoor dining furniture and a summerhouse. A gate allows easy access to the car when you’re ready to explore.
Famous for its 14th-century church, selection of stores and friendly pubs, Snettisham sits a couple of miles inland of a shingle beach that looks out across The Wash and is perfect for walks and wildlife-watching – the adjacent RSPB reserve hosts an incredible display of geese when the tides are right. Follow the Norfolk Coast Path 3 miles to Heacham –home of Norfolk Lavender – or visit resort town Hunstanton (4.5 miles) for traditional seaside entertainment. Drive cross-country to well-heeled Burnham Market (12 miles) for boutique shopping and celebrity-spotting. A little further on, the Holkham Estate (15.5 miles) is en-route to Wells-next-the-Sea (18 miles).
