Escape to a cosy couple’s lodge with traditional cottage interiors and a pretty outside space with a furniture set beneath a parasol, and a BBQ. While away your time discovering the beaches, nature reserves and historic landmarks in the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Broads National Park.

Make yourself at home in the sociable open-plan living area with a characterful wooden beamed ceiling, an exposed brick feature wall, and country-style decor. Snuggle upon the sofa in front of the wood burner-effect electric fire and TV.

There is also a double bedroom and a shower room. Outside is a courtyard garden with furniture and a BBQ.
