Property code: OC-92295

A romantic hideaway for two situated in a gorgeous countryside location with great access to the Norfolk Broads waterways and surrounding villages. This stunning little studio annexe is in the picture-perfect village of Strumpshaw, situated just 9 miles from Norwich. Strumpshaw merges with a larger village called Lingwood, but has its own personality due to the famous RSPB sanctuary at Strumpshaw Fen on the river Yare; the fenland is just 1 mile from the property. Brundall is 2 miles away and offers lots of local amenities such as pubs, shops and restaurants. For a day out further afield, Wroxham (9 miles) – known as ‘the Capital of the Broads’ – has lots of activities on offer, such as canoeing, kayaking and day-boat hire. Great Yarmouth (13 miles) is also easily accessible for a beach day out.

 Stepping into this beautifully presented one-level accommodation in the stunning Norfolk Countryside, you are greeted with a contemporary multi-functional space, perfect for a romantic getaway. Through large bi-fold patio doors that let in lots of natural light, there is a warm and cosy living room space with comfortable seating and a Smart TV for sitting back and relaxing after a long day of exploring the local area. To the right of the studio, there is a double bed for re-charging and an en-suite shower room. At the back of the studio, the kitchen is spacious, with all of your home comforts and amenities, and plenty of work-top space for cooking up an evening meal or making up your packed lunch for a day of exploring.

Stepping out of the bi-fold doors, find a patio and large lawn area with a summer house containing some garden furniture for you to enjoy those warmer evenings.

A lovely cottage and well-appointed, in a charming area of Norfolk with a huge garden for my dog to enjoy. The host was exemplary and was super attentive and friendly, and she helped me before the holiday with directions and last-minute traffic delays and road closures and post the holiday, she has also been in touch. I tried both of the local pubsRead more and they were dog-friendly and the food was good, and the people were friendly too. I preferred the Huntsman, but the Shoulder of Mutton was nice; it is all a matter of taste and personal preference. EXCELLENT 5 Stars from me for Penny the Host and the venue. Hide
