About this property

This charming, two-bedroom property, 1 Chelsea Cottage, resting in North Elmham, Norfolk, is the perfect place for families to stay. With an enclosed garden to enjoy, off-road parking to make use of, and an array of welcoming amenities at your fingertips, 1 Chelsea Cottage is ideal for countryside breaks to Norfolk, sleeping up to four guests. Arriving at the characterful cottage, enveloped by beautiful plants and flowers, step into the country-styled kitchen/dining space, with a Smart TV, a wealth of state-of-the-art appliances, and a relaxing atmosphere in tow; enjoy cooking for the entire family whilst gathering around the dining table for a catch-up and brunch. Exploring the ground-floor, you’ll reach the homely sitting room with an adjoining conservatory, where you can warm up in front of the woodburning stove, flick on a favourite film, or simply gaze outward towards the private outdoor escape of 1 Chelsea Cottage; the room is flooded with light, setting the perfect scene for a morning coffee or tea. Transitioning to the rear garden, opt for alfresco dining amongst the beds of colourful blooms, and private pond, whilst relaxing upon the garden furniture or lawn; idyllic for a family picnic in warmer months. Heading upstairs, beyond the ground-floor cloakroom and laundry facilities, be welcomed by two spacious bedrooms, boasting storage, stunning countryside views, and proximity to the main bathroom, inclusive of a roll top bath; take a long soak before retreating to either the king-size or twin rooms, where you can switch off for the night. Within North Elmham itself you will find all the essentials, including the hidden gems of Elmham Tea Post, and the Kings Head Hotel, along with a local Londis convenience store to stock up on your self-catering basics. For family-friendly days out, head to Norfolk Llamas, where you can experience a meet and greet, take a stroll around the shores of Cromer Beach, or visit Pensthorpe for a bird feeding slot. Surrounded by beauty spots, discover Swanton Morley Waterfalls, explore the grounds of Dereham Windmill and its grade II listed architecture, or take to Dersingham Bog for a wildlife trek, taking in the scenic walking trails. Holt Country Park, Houghton Hall & Gardens Norfolk, and the preserved remains of Castle Acre Priory are all popular sights to visit within the Norfolk region. Explore them by using 1 Chelsea Cottage as your family's base.

North Elmham, a small and quiet village in Norfolk, is known in Old English as the 'settlement where elm grows.' It is a lovely region with plenty of lands and a lake to explore. It's a history buff's dream come true, with the ruins of a Norman Chapel turned into a fortified mansion and an array of English Heritage sites nearby. It also has a variety of activities to enjoy during your visit, such as a tennis club for an afternoon of sport, Afternoon Tea at The Kings Head Hotel, or a countryside pub lunch in the midst of breath-taking landscape. Close by in Billingford, you'll find a fantastic fishing lake, excellent for spending quality time with the kids, or Churchill's shooting ground, which offers an action-packed experience you'll never forget. Pensthorpe Natural Park, a 700-acre reserve and conservation park with interactive pathways and eco play areas for the kids, is a must-see while in the area.

  • Colin

    Everything was of very high quality and all systems worked perfectly. Getting out of the narrow parking spot onto a blind bend in the road was a bit hairy so we parked down the road apart from when unloading and loading. Traffic was mercifully light.

  • Dirk

    Pity the detached garden building blocks the garden view from the conservatory (it's fair to say this is shown in the pictures). Neverthtless, a great stay.

  • Douglas

    Although on a B road, the insulation is so good that we hardly heard the traffic. Reversing into the parking space is a challenge, but there is the option of parking further up the road.
