About this property
2 bedroom accommodation in Helhoughton, near Fakenham
A pretty little traditional cottage which is full of charm and in a great area for exploring.. Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: Freeview Smart TV
Kitchen: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Washing Machine
Bathroom: Bath With Shower Attachment, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet
First Floor:
Bedroom 1: Kingsize (5ft) Bed Ensuite: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet
Bedroom 2: Kingsize (5ft) Bed. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Travel cot and highchair available on request. Welcome pack. External utility room with fridge/freezer. Enclosed garden with patio, garden furniture and barbecue. Bike store. Private parking for 1 car; additional on road parking. No smoking.. Dating back to the 17th century, Meadow Cottage is packed with period charm, while offering all the modern conveniences needed for a lovely holiday. Boasting a lovely garden and a wood burner, this is the perfect year-round choice for your Norfolk break. Featuring two bedrooms and two bathrooms, this pretty little semi-detached cottage is tucked away in a rural idyll with a children’s play area just down the road but is still close to lots of the highlights of this much-loved county.
Head to Wells-next-the-Sea and sit quayside while the little fishing and sailing boats bob on the tide. Or explore Staithe Street, which is packed with artisan and boutique shops, cafés and restaurants. Then go down to the wide sandy beach, one of the best in the area, and see the pretty painted beach huts. If you are a coast lover you will find so many habitats to explore along this coastline from rolling sand dunes and salt and clay marshes to sand and shingle beaches, quays, and fishing available nearby.
History buffs will enjoy visits to the Holkham, Houghton, Sandringham, and Blickling Estates along with a trip on North Norfolk railway and visits to the Muckleburgh and Thursford Collections, the latter of which hosts its famous Christmas Spectacular and is home to Santa’s Magical Journey every year.
Make time to visit the Georgian market town of Holt with its unique High Street. This pretty little town is a firm favourite with locals and is great to just potter around. Nature lovers will find many habitats to explore including RSPB Cley Marshes, Pensthorpe Nature Reserve, and Sheringham Park and you can make a trip to the Norfolk Broads from here too, and be in the heart of them in just 50 minutes. Add in Amazonia Zoo, Cromer Pier, Fakenham races and so much more and you will soon see why this part of Norfolk is so very popular. And then you get to return to lovely Meadow Cottage for a glass of something chilled in the garden or cosy up by the wood burner. Just perfect. Beach 13 miles.
