Surrounded by fertile farmland, meandering footpaths and leafy lanes, the village of Knapton is home to a 14th-century church and some fine brick-and-flint properties. Just 2 miles to the east, Bacton sits along a stretch of sand that runs all the way from Mundesley (2 miles) to Walcott (4 miles) – keep watch for the seals as you walk the shoreline. Contrast the genteel Victorian charm of Mundesley with the busier resort of Cromer (9.5 miles), one of North Norfolk’s most iconic coastal locations. Here, the wide sandy beach, promenade, pier and lifeboat station offer family-friendly entertainment and the town centre bustles as bistros, cafes and bars cater to every taste. You’ll find more stores, inns and eateries in market town North Walsham (4 miles), plus excellent public transport links to the cathedrals, castle and cobbled lanes of Norwich (20 miles). If you’d prefer to explore the countryside, the Weaver's Way runs through Knapton on its 61-mile route from Cromer to Great Yarmouth, while for nature lovers Hickling (14 miles) is the largest Broad and a year-round haven for wildlife.
After busy days exploring the coast and countryside, this charming holiday home is calm, comfortable and easy on the eye – perfect for companionable time as a couple. A gravelled path leads from the private parking area to the front door; step inside and you’re in a chic little kitchen housing all the essentials for hassle-free home-cooking. From here, a door gives access to a spacious living/dining room with a striking feature wall. Stretch out on the sofa to watch TV or enjoy a romantic meal for two – the dining area is flooded with natural light. When it’s time to sleep, a door to the left leads through to a lovely double bedroom and sleek en-suite shower room.
Enjoy snacks and drinks at the bistro-style seating area outside the front door, or enjoy a breath of fresh air in the lawned garden, which is shared with the property’s owners. Private parking for one car.
