Whether you’re looking for a family adventure to the coast, a couples wildlife watching retreat, or simply a peaceful countryside escape, this country cottage in Cranmer provides the perfect base for an unforgettable Norfolk getaway. You’ll find true tranquillity in the scenic countryside surrounding Cranmer, ideal for outdoor activities including walking and cycling; there is a cycle route passing directly by the site and down to Holkham Beach. The spectacular North Norfolk coast is alive with golden sands, windswept walks and coastal routes to explore, with the beaches at Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham both reachable within 10.5 miles of the doorstep. Nature lovers can enjoy bird watching opportunities at Holkham National Nature Reserve and Cley Marshes Nature Reserve, both within 17.5 miles. The King's country residence at Sandringham is 15 miles away, whilst the spectacular stately homes of Houghton Hall and Holkham Hall are within 9 miles of the doorstep.


Combining contemporary styling with stunning original features, including a high, vaulted ceiling, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner offers homely warmth and all your creature comforts. The contemporary kitchen has been beautifully designed, boasting all the equipment you need to whip up something delicious to begin or end your day. With room for four, the farmhouse-style dining set is ideal for family feasts and planning your next adventure over a glass of something chilled with loved ones. Flooded with natural light from the large set of glazed doors, the lounge space is as bright and airy as it is cosy; plush soft furnishings and retro-style pieces add charm and character. Seamlessly blend the interior with your beautiful surrounding scenery by leaving open the large set of glazed doors to make the most of al fresco living. Adjoining the open-plan living space is a delightfully relaxed twin bedroom that promises a peaceful rest. At the other end of the cottage, you’ll find a contemporary family bathroom and a blissful king-size bedroom that enjoys lovely original features, including a pitched ceiling and pretty, painted brickwork.


The enclosed terrace is an excellent spot to enjoy some evening drinks as the sun sets over the rolling surrounding farmland in the distance. A BBQ makes the perfect addition for al fresco dining and entertaining during the warmer months. Head through the gate of the terrace to the large, fenced shared paddock area to enjoy garden games; children will love the play facilities.
