Escape to the best that Norfolk has to offer with a coastal getaway in this spacious family home in the small village of Waxham, a haven for wildlife and located in North Norfolk's Area of Outstanding Beauty. The Coastal Path is accessible here and will take you miles either north or south, with beaches that are sandy and wide. A Common Seal colony inhabits this stretch of the coast, and you can see seal pups over the winter months from November to February; the main colony is at Horsey Gap (1.5 miles). There are many nearby walks including a trail, which leads alongside a waterway that takes you in the direction of Horsey Mill (2.5 miles). The Broads offer 125 miles of waterways, nature trails and cycle routes to access, with Hickling Broad (4.5 miles) being the nearest to Waxham.

Surrounded by Norfolk countryside, this family-friendly former farmhouse is spacious both internally and externally, the property is perfect for a family gathering for all ages. The ground floor of the property has a large, refurbished lounge with oak flooring and underfloor heating and a lounge/diner, both with comfortable seating, Smart TVs, and one with an open fire and the other a woodburning stove. The formal dining area has a table with bench and chair seating, with plenty of space to enjoy a meal and quality time together. There is also a fully equipped kitchen/diner with everything needed to cook up a storm for the family. The utility room also acts as a boot room to dry out any soggy socks and wash off muddy paws after a day of exploring the coastline. There is also a ground-floor shower room for added convenience. Heading upstairs, you will be greeted by views of the sand dunes and countryside beyond, as well as four comfortable and airy bedrooms: one zip-and-link super-king-size which can be made up as twin beds if required, two doubles, and one single.

Poplar Farm house is a superb holiday accommodation. Beautifully laid out and exceptionally well equipped, with an extremely large garden to relax in. Fantastic location for the coast and the Broads. Louise and Martin were also wonderful hosts. All in all, one of the best holiday homes we've ever stayed in

Had a fantastic week at Poplar Farm. The owners were very welcoming and the welcome pack was superb, including a delicious home made cake. The house is very well equipped, everything you could need, a real home from home. All the bedrooms were clean, comfortable and airy. Both sitting rooms have large comfortable sofas, games and a large toy box whRead moreich was a god send when it rained all day. The large garden is wonderful for dogs and children to safely play and explore the little wooded area. Lots of seating in the garden to relax and enjoy the peace and spot the wildlife. Ideal place for family holidays. We had such a fantastic week the kids didn't want to go home. We would definitely go back. Hide

Lovely location, and a great house for multi-generational holiday. The garden was also fabulous, we saw deer, rabbits, a hare and lots of birds. The owner was super helpful, and the welcome pack with homemade goodies was delicious!
