About this property

This lovely mid-terrace dwelling, Holly Cottage, is situated on the outskirts of the market town of Swaffham in Norfolk. This delightful holiday home is an ideal base for couples sharing or small family of four with plenty of things to see and do within easy reach; one well-behaved dog is also welcomed. Once you have parked your car at the front of the cottage, enter the small porch, where you can leave your shoes and coats before reaching the kitchen, well-equipped to rustle up delicious meals. From the kitchen is a spacious sitting room with dining area, featuring a woodburning stove, and plush seating, along with enough dining space for all guests. On a sunny day, let the outside in by opening the French doors that lead out onto the garden, complete with a lawn, decking, furniture, and a firepit, a great place to enjoy an alfresco meal at any time of the day. Leading off the kitchen are stairs to the first floor, where you will find two bedrooms, a master double and a twin, together with a compact bathroom with corner bath and shower over. Within walking distance is Swaffham, with its independent shops and pubs, and you're close to stately homes, coastlines, wildlife reserves, the wonderful Norfolk Broads, and the cathedral city of Norwich. Experience all of this at Holly Cottage. Note: This cottage can be booked with Refs: 931499 and 934591, together they sleep 14.

Swaffham is a market town in Norfolk with beautiful Georgian structures housing stores, taverns, and restaurants. There is a vibrant Saturday market there as well as a farmers' market twice a month. Swaffham is located on the edge of The Brecks, a rural region of agricultural, heathland, and forest environments. The Brecks is peppered with towns and villages to explore and is full of activities for walking, cycling, horseback riding, and more. Go Ape high wire adventure is available in Thetford Forest, and it's simple to take a journey to Norfolk's magnificent shoreline or Broads. Swaffham and Norfolk make a great year-round base for the entire family with National Trust estates, maritime, farming, and aviation museums, or zoos, nature preserves, and adventure parks to visit.
