Full of character, this three-storey period cottage is located close to the centre of Great Walsingham, in gorgeous countryside and within reach of sandy beaches, coastal walks and cycle routes. It’s a lovely destination for couples, families or friends wanting to explore North Norfolk, both coastal and inland.
Beautifully restored by award-winning architects, the cottage retains many original features, including oak beams, exposed stone and brick and period fireplaces, with an updated kitchen and quality bathrooms. It has varying levels throughout. The kitchen/diner is equipped with everything you’ll need for holiday cooking, including a Nespresso coffee machine for that morning cuppa, and is a lovely space in which to dine together, perhaps relaxing after your meal to plan your next day’s adventures. The lounge is a super space with comfortable seating, a Smart TV and an inglenook fireplace housing a wood burner, and there’s also a snug for anyone who wants to curl up with a book on the sofa – which can be turned into a bed for alternative sleeping arrangements. Head up to the first floor to find two gorgeous super-king-size bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room, plus a bathroom. On the top floor, accessed via cottage-style stairs, is the single bedroom with its vaulted ceiling and wooden sleigh bed. A south-facing, walled garden is yours to enjoy, which includes two patio areas equipped with outdoor furniture and BBQ, plus a children’s slide.
The property is located in The Old Foundry development at Great Walsingham, 0.5 miles from the amenities of the village, and 1.5 miles from Little Walsingham, which boasts pubs, restaurants, cafes, a renowned fish and chip shop and an excellent farm shop. It’s ideally located for visiting the coast, with the popular resort of Wells-next-the-Sea just 5 miles away and Holkham 8 miles.
