2 Bed Cottage in Fakenham

About this property

Stay in a traditional country cottage with characterful wooden beamed ceilings, a homely kitchen and a peaceful garden with a flower border and shrubs. Make memories with your small family or the other half while exploring the nearby historic landmarks, nature reserves and idyllic coastline in the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. And discover the quaint English market towns and villages.

Step inside to find a spacious neutral-toned lounge with a plump ‘L’-shaped sofa, Smart TV and an elegant inglenook fireplace with a wooden mantelpiece and a wood burner. A small step down leads you to the kitchen/diner with a ‘U’-shaped fitted unit boasting wooden cabinets, sparkling surface tops and a Rangemaster cooker. After cooking a special meal for your loved ones, gather around the dining table with seating for four. Climb the stairs to reach the first-floor family bathroom plus two bedrooms – a double with a TV, and a twin. Outside is a front and rear garden with furniture and plants.

During your stay in the village of Great Ryburgh, you’ll be surrounded by the picturesque Norfolk countryside and have a convenient village shop with post office and a cafe within 0.5 miles. Pensthorpe Nature Reserve is 3.5 miles away, where you can spend an entire day roaming the 700 acres of woodland, waterways and play areas. Visit Fakenham (4.5 miles) for a meal out, stop off at the garden centre or place your bets at the racecourse. Head into the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to discover the charming town of Burnham Market (14 miles) which is home to boutique shops and an array of market stalls on a Wednesday. Near here is the expansive sandy Holkham Beach (16 miles) – where a scene from Shakespeare in Love was filmed.
