Traditional character makes this lovely cottage a welcoming place to stay, with space for a couple, friends or a small family. It’s located in the heart of the thriving market town of Fakenham, where there’s so much to see and do, and only 10 miles from the spectacular North Norfolk coast.

This cute cottage, fronted in brick and flint, has instant appeal, and once you step inside it will soon feel like a home from home. The kitchen/diner is equipped with modern appliances and has all the space you’ll need to create stress-free holiday meals, to be enjoyed at the wooden dining table where, after supper, you can linger with a board game or a glass of wine. When you’re ready to retreat to the comfortable lounge, perhaps delving into a good book or catching up with a favourite series on the Smart TV. The utility room is a great place to store beach equipment, and leads into the shower room with a WC. On the first floor both sweet bedrooms, a twin and a single, boast TVs, ornamental fireplaces, ample storage and pretty bed linens.

Set on the River Wensum, Fakenham boasts a racecourse, a waterfowl park and a ruined abbey. As well as an array of interesting shops, it’s renowned for its markets and auctions, and is also a perfect base for adventures on foot or by bike. For day trips to a sweeping, sandy beach, head to Wells-next-the-sea, just 10 miles - don’t forget to try some fish and chips. At Blakeney Point, 14 miles, you can catch a boat to see the colony of seals, or you could visit Burnham Market, 10.5 miles, for its independent shops and array of eateries.

Absolutely lovely cottage with everything you need for a self catering holiday. Comfortable and cosy and is only a stones throw from everything. The town is also very nice. This is the first holiday in years that I have truly enjoyed.

I received a very warm welcome on arrival although I was early. The cottage is on a private road so there is parking outside yet right next to the town centre. Fakenham is surrounded by beautiful villages . Everything you need for a home from home stay is available. The beds are comfortable and ample bedroom storage. The rest of the cottage is wellRead more equipped . Highly recommended. Hide
