This characterful cottage in Bodham is situated in a picture-perfect village location and offers the ideal setting for a romantic break. A selection of friendly pubs is within 1 mile, and you’ll find a wonderful beach only 3.5 miles away. Two cosy bedrooms sleep up to three guests, and the cottage is simply brimming with charming features, such as exposed beams, a crackling wood burner, and countryside views.

There’s no better space to put your feet up and relax than in the open-plan lounge/dining room, with its original Pamment tiling and wooden beams. The room also features a wood burner in an exposed brickwork surround as well as plenty of seating and a TV. When mealtimes arrive, head to the beautifully arranged kitchen boasting an ornamental fireplace. If you need to freshen up, the family bathroom is also on the ground floor. When night falls, head up the cottage-style stairs and retire to one of the two bedrooms; the single bedroom leads through to the double bedroom. Outside, enjoy a small seating area with a table and chairs, perfect for that morning cup of coffee. The property also includes a private garden with a patio and seating a short stroll away which provides the perfect spot for a lazy summer’s afternoon.

Explore Sheringham Park, 1.5 miles away, or Holt Country Park, 4 miles away. With the nearby beaches of Weybourne, Sheringham, Salthouse and Cromer (all within 6.5 miles), there is something for everyone. Not to be missed is the Georgian town of Holt, 4 miles away, for its fantastic selection of boutiques and eateries. Alternatively, visit Baconsthorpe Castle, Amazona Zoo or Felbrigg Hall, Gardens and Estate, all within 7 miles of the cottage. Or head to Cley Marshes which is 6.5 miles away and take a boat ride out to see the seal colony at Blakeney Point – an unmissable opportunity for wildlife and nature lovers.

Now that's what I call a Country Cottage ! Quirky, quaint, and homely. Fully equipped with everything you might need, comfortable furniture and beds, additional blankets if necessary, warm central heating. Highly recommended

We really enjoyed our stay in this cosy cottage in a handy location not far from the coast. The property was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds and a relaxing sitting room. Some doorways and ceilings are low but if you are of no more than average height you should be OK.

From the moment we entered Poppy Cottage we were entranced. From the delightful pictures on the walls, to the many warm throws and cushions on the sofa, everything was just so cosy, comfortable and welcoming. The whole cottage was delightful.

Not recommended for guests with mobility issues or anyone over 6 feet tall, they will not be able to stand up in the kitchen. Otherwise a cosy and nicely decorated cottage in a good location and with really good food and friendly service at the local pub - a couple of minutes walk away.

Delightful and quiet cottage, nearby the Norfolk attractions of Holt, Sheringham and several National Trust sites. Ideal place for a winter break with the coziness of the wood burning stove. A cute old cottage but with this comes the steep stairs, low doorways and ceilings. We loved staying here and would definitely return.
