A thatched countryside cottage in the picturesque village of Cromer, this spot offers a countryside setting without being too far away from the built-up city of Norwich – a twenty-minute drive away. Stunning brickwork and traditional features present this fairy-tale-like home which combines classic designs with modern furnishings for comfort and practicality. With two bedrooms and a grassy garden with an alfresco dining area, you'll find plenty of space to come together as a group or take peaceful moments in solitude. Nestled just down the road from a Saxon Church and river, this cottage was built in 1580, overlooks Intwood Hall, and makes for an idyllic spot for those who enjoy walking holidays. From here, you'll find an abundance of charming walking routes, including the famous Kett's Country Walk – a 17-mile stretch linking Norwich and Wymondham. It's also an excellent location for experiencing the great British seaside, as the cottage is just a forty-minute drive from the nearest sandy beach.
