This cottage is located in the  village of North Creake, just a 2-minute walk from the village pub. Three miles from the property, the larger village of Burnham Market is often known as Norfolk’s prettiest village and is a wonderful place to spend a relaxing afternoon browsing the independent shops and stopping for lunch in the delightful pub with its sunny beer garden. A little further north the stunning coastal estate of Holkham Hall boasts a handsome 18th-century Palladian manor house set within an impressive 25000 acres of land, including a stunning sweeping beach which featured in an iconic scene with Gwyneth Paltrow in the film, ‘Shakespeare in Love’.

This gorgeous cottage offers guests the chance to enjoy a taste of authentic cottage life, with its cosy atmosphere and beautifully maintained period features. The front door opens directly into the attractive lounge/diner with its wooden beams, brick fireplace, cosy wood burner, and traditional Norfolk pavement tiles. The soft furnishings on the two sofas have been carefully  chosen to complement the style of the cottage, as has the pretty rug on the floor. The owners have provided a selection of books for guests to enjoy, as well as a TV/DVD in the lounge. A doorway leads through to the kitchen which has a range of prettily-painted units, offering an oven, hob, microwave, fridge, and freezer.  The steep cottage style stairs lead to the first floor where there are two bedrooms, the master bedroom is a delightful double room with a wooden floor, dressing table, and bedside tables. Whilst the second bedroom is a peaceful single room suitable for a child. The bathroom can also be found on the first floor and offers a shower-over-bath and WC.

From the back door there is a shared path giving access to the rear to the neighbouring properties, a gate then leads through to an enclosed pretty garden with mature borders and a secluded seating area under a tree for which there is garden furniture provided. At the end of the garden, past the gate, the River Burn runs past, beyond which there is off-road parking for two cars.

The cottage was clean and quite well equipped apart from the kettle which was unusable because of the limescale. The stairs are steep but manageable except for those with Mobility problems . The garden is not suitable for small dogs as they can get through the fencing . The road is very, very noisy .

Cottage was comfortable, lovely 'woodland ' garden . Lots of interesting places to visit just a short drive away as well as the beautiful Norfolk beaches . Very busy noisy road passes the cottage which sadly ment it wasn't a quiet tranqil retreat.

Lovely, quaint, little terraced cottage with magical, long, narrow back garden leading to a leafy glade parking spot. Thoughtfully equipped with a comfortable bed, bedside radio, hot water, good wi-fi and TV signal. A bit of road noise from the occasional passing vehicle but much reduced with the secondary double glazing closed.

A cozy cottage with a pretty enclosed garden and in a nice village with a very friendly pub, sadly they weren't doing food for the 3 days we stayed so can't comment on that. Good walks for our dog from the cottage, and we really appreciated the very generous welcome pack. We would definitely stay again.

A lovely little cottage and parking at the rear of the property was a bonus. It does state in the cottage that dogs are not allowed on the furniture or upstairs. This is not stated prior to booking! The garden is not secure for small dogs, which we found to be a problem.

This is a lovely cottage , kept to a beautiful standard and we have had a great week there! But, a very steep wooden staircase should be mentioned, if you are a dog owner, also the garden not being directly accessible due to the right of way to the other cottages stops you from being able to let the dog out of the cottage. Being able to park in an Read moreenclosed space at the back is a bonus! Hide
