Pretty flint cottage in tranquil setting close to coast and Walsingham shrines

POPPY COTTAGE is a newly-renovated terraced flint cottage with one double bedroom and one twin bedroom. There is a well-equipped kitchen, shower room, cosy front-room and porch/sunroom. Character features include an old water pump outside and Victorian stove (unused!). The lovely courtyard garden is secure and comes complete with an old apple tree. Bikes can be stored in a secure shed. Bedding and towels are provided, and there is Wifi. For children, there is a high chair, travel cot, toys and buckets/spades. Children will love the steam-powered Wells to Walsingham Light Railway! A short stroll through the peaceful village and across a ford will lead to Great Walsingham Barns (art centre and tearoom). On the way, you can see historic Berry Hall, where Henry VIII is said to have first met Anne Boleyn. Little Walsingham is within walking distance, where the shrines and abbey are located. There is also a farm shop, very good pubs and tearooms. Further afield, Wells-next-the-Sea is 10 minutes drive away (traditional seaside town with supermarket and petrol station) and Holkham Beach is nearby. This stunning beach has pine forests, sand dunes and is popular with bird watchers. There are many family attractions within driving distance (search for North Norfolk tourism online). Poppy Cottage is a lovely place for a break from the fast pace of life as it's so peaceful, but conveniently located. Please note this is an old Victorian farmworkers' cottage, and as such, the stairs are a quite steep. This is a dog-free property and so may be of interest to allergy sufferers.
