A bright and spacious lodge set on a working farm surrounded by glorious countryside only 11 miles from the cathedral city of Norwich. Perfect for families and small groups, this dog-friendly lodge offers an attractive sitting room, an enclosed garden and easy access to a range of attractions along the North Norfolk Coast.

Beautifully furnished and bathing in natural light from numerous angles, this one-storey lodge has a contemporary rustic feel that will appeal to all ages on two and four legs. The large sitting room is a great place to chill throughout the day, with easy access to the garden via bi-fold doors. The kitchen/diner, a really welcoming space, is only a few paw prints away and is perfect for long, overly-indulgent meals. Away from this area, an en-suite king-size bedroom, a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, each with its own character, can be found close to the large family bathroom. The views across the surrounding paddocks, woodland and countryside from the enclosed garden are best enjoyed with a cocktail or BBQ supper on the patio as dog-friendly children’s games are played out on the small lawn beyond.

The area between the lodge and the pretty village of Swannington (1 mile) is lined with paths and trails that lead to Alderford Common and Marriott’s Way, an 11-mile cycle path linking Aylsham to Norwich. The streets of this historic city are lined with cultural attractions, shops, cafes and dog-friendly pubs serving local fare. The lodge’s central position in Norfolk means that the coastal villages including Holt (16.5 miles), the Norfolk Broads (14 miles) and a host of nature reserves in between offer a different day out for the whole family.

This was a lovely cottage in a peaceful location, but well situated to explore all of what Norfolk has to offer.Close to Norwich but with good road links to places like Cromer and the Broads.
