Property code: OC-2035

A romantic hideaway for couples, this one-bedroom single-story annexe was originally an old schoolhouse and has been carefully re-designed to create a cosy space for two. Full of character, you can still see the children’s etchings on the outside wall in the courtyard. Natural light floods the spacious interiors, and if you fancy a night off from cooking, Reepham’s pubs and restaurants are conveniently within 500 metres of the front door.

Inside, a bright, spacious open-plan living space combines the lounge, kitchen and dining room. Settle on the sofa in the lounge area and watch a film on the TV in the warmth of the wood burner-effect electric fire. You’ll find everything you could need to treat your loved one to a romantic supper in the kitchen area and you can dine at the table by the window. When night falls, the king-size bedroom offers a restful space to dream, and there is also a shower room. Step outside to find a lovely courtyard garden complete with outdoor furniture, perfect for basking in the summer sun or al fresco meals cooked up on the charcoal BBQ.

The traditional town of Reepham is a hive of activity, with numerous boutiques and shops selling local delicacies and fancy goods. Stroll through the town's old Georgian-era streets and visit the market square. The leafy Bure and Wensum Valleys are just a short distance away, offering a wealth of idyllic countryside walks, or you can set off on a grand adventure along Marriott’s Way - a 26-mile-long path leading all the way from Aylsham to Norwich. For a day at the seaside, head to Cromer, 18.5 miles away. This timeless resort offers an array of amusements, from trying out the local crab to an afternoon stroll down the pier.

The property is fitted out to a very high level. It is snug and warm. There is a safe and easily accessible enclosed yard area. It is a few minutes walk away from a well resourced Co-op store. There is one pub between it and the Co-op and another in the centre of the town, which is 10 minutes to quarter of an hour away. Reepham is an excellent baRead morese from which to explore North Norfolk. Kings Lynn, Sandringham to the West, Blakeney, Wells and Cley to the North and Norwich and Great Yarmouth to the East are a few miles drive away. Hide

Absolutely gorgeous cottage tastefully decorated and furnished, very well equipped and spotlessly clean. You even get an covered parking space for your car. A real bonus. Reepham is well situated for exploring much of Norfolk and the village itself has two great pubs within easy walking distance of the property. We especially liked the Crown. TheRead morere is a good sized Co op supermarket very close by plus a local Spar in the village. Add to this very friendly, welcoming and helpful hosts and you have the perfect holiday destination. Highly recommend. Hide

The Old School House was an excellent base for visiting Norwich and North Norfolk. It is very comfortable and well equipped, the bed was particularly good. Reepham is a pretty place to stay and there are a couple of good pubs for evening meals.

We thoroughly enjoyed our weeks stay at The Old School House and the location was excellent for exploring North Norfolk. The cottage was charming, very clean, comfortable and well equipped, great shower. Delightful owners who were kind, welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. Two good pubs and well stocked Co-op close by.

Good base for exploring the North Norfolk coast and Norwich. Everything you need for a week away is in the cottage. The Crown pub is a 30 second walk away and a well stocked Co-op is a 2 minutes walk away.

The washing machine in the owners kitchen, not very accessible. We were told that people staying for a week are not expected to use the washing machine, therefore extra towels should be provided. Windows over looking the owners garden which reduced privacy. The garage area would not accommodate a large vehicle.
