Soak up the fresh air out in the lovely garden at this single-storey retreat in Hickling, on the edge of the spectacular Norfolk Broads. This two-bedroom hideaway is just 1.5 miles from Hickling Broad, where you can hire boats to take yourselves out on the water along scenic rivers. It sleeps four guests, welcomes two dogs, and is also only 5 miles from the sandy beach at Sea Palling and 8 miles from Horsey Gap where you can spot seals, including cubs, in late autumn and winter. Treat yourselves to a day out to bustling Norwich, 20 miles away, where you can visit the castle, cathedral and market. This welcoming property is attached to its owners but enjoys its privacy.
Let yourselves in through the private entrance and walk through to the bright lounge, where you can slide open the patio doors on fine days. Switch on the Smart TV, watch a DVD or listen to music in here via the CD player and simply unwind. Light the wood burner on chilly days and enjoy the cosy ambience it creates. Wander through to the light-filled kitchen/diner to make everyone a cup of tea or to prepare a holiday dinner. Find you have a built-in electric oven, plus an electric hob to cook on. Also in here, there’s a fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. Dine together at the table, with the door open when it is warm. Make your way to either the king-size bedroom or the twin when you are ready to turn in for the night. Find these rooms each have a TV and share the family bathroom, with a bath, separate shower and WC.
Spread out into the mature, enclosed garden at every opportunity. Relax out here with a drink and a book. Light the BBQ on balmy evenings. Find you have access to a garage, where you can play pool and darts, and keep your bicycles. There is parking for two cars at this cottage.
