Calling all seaside explorers – this one is for you. Perched in the sought-after village of Thorpe Market with four of North Norfolk’s finest beaches just a ten-minute drive away, the location of this flint period cottage is unbeatable. Pack up your buckets and spades and get off to a flying start in Cromer for days of picnicking, kite flying, and sandcastle building. When tummies start to rumble, there are fish and chip shops for supper on the beach. The nearby gastro pub (three-minute drive or twenty-minute walk) will do very nicely for something more upper-crust. Or head home for a barbecue in your suntrap garden – you can always swing by the local farm shop (a two-minute drive) to pick up supplies. Inside, this charming home is perfectly set up for an easy family holiday, including your furry friends. Upstairs there are immaculate, clutter-free bedrooms. While back downstairs, the large farmhouse kitchen table is a fantastic spot to all come together to rustle up breakfast and hatch plans for a day of exploring. And after long, bracing walks in the countryside in the winter months, there’s an obligatory log-burner fire to curl up beside in the storybook armchair.
