Nestled in the picturesque village of Cawston midway between Norwich and the North Norfolk coast, this gem of a property makes a great base for exploring the region. Skilfully renovated with original character features and cosy cottage-style furniture, this warm and welcoming holiday home has ample room for four. With an outdoor patio and shared use of the owner’s outdoor heated swimming pool in summer, this single-storey property is sure to please.

With a beamed ceiling, latched doors and an inglenook fireplace, the lounge is a snug and welcoming haven. Curl up with a book, watch a film, or chat about your day, warmed by the wood-burner-effect electric fire. Light and fresh, the kitchen/diner creates a calming environment to cook up a storm, while the tiled floor and exposed beams add charm and character to the room. There’s a dining table here for family mealtimes, plus a patio and BBQ outside so you can make the most of warmer weather. Heated between May and September, the outdoor pool is an added bonus for those balmy summer days; there’s a convenient garden house with a changing room and shower. Arranged over a single storey, the en-suite double and twin bedrooms are along the hallway along with the family bathroom.

Wander out from the property to explore the surrounding area via country walks, bike trails and on horseback, or head to the river for a relaxing fishing trip. The market towns of Aylsham (4.5 miles) and Reepham (3 miles) offer a choice of places to eat and drink. Local attractions include the National Trust properties of Blickling Hall (4.5 miles) and Felbrigg Hall (15.5 miles), and the fine city of Norwich (12.5 miles), while the seaside resorts of Cromer, Sheringham and Mundesley are within 18 miles.

Such a charming properly in a lovely location, just enough away from the hustle and bustle of daily life but if you want to you can go into one of the local towns a short drive away. The children loved the pool it was the highlight of their holiday. Thank you! :)

We loved The Old Coach houses character, and the addition of the pool house for extra space and changing/ bathroom as well as seating area was a bonus. We booked for the pool which was a great size and fabulous for our family.
