About this property
Diss 5.3 miles. Enjoying a central position within South Norfolk, just a few miles away from the market town of Diss, is this well-presented lodge resting within a secluded position on the grounds of the owners property, Someplace Else. This romantic retreat is ideally placed for a couple seeking to explore the Norfolk Broads, the Thetford Forest Park or head to the glorious coastline. Soak up the countryside setting before stepping into the open-plan living room, where you will be delighted to find all the essentials that you could possibly need during a week-long break. Here, you will find a well-equipped kitchen complete with all the essentials to rustle up a home-cooked meal that can be enjoyed at the dining table. After dinner, look forward to curling up on the leather sofa to plan the days ahead whilst the woodburning stove fills the room with a gentle warmth during those chilly winter months. The interior is completed by a spacious double bedroom, which benefits from ample storage to house your personal belongings, a TV for those relaxing evenings in and a window that offers delightful views for you to wake up to each morning. To the outside you will find a decked area, where you can soak up the surroundings and catch the final glimpses of sunshine during a balmy afternoon. If you can tear yourself away from this romantic retreat, a short walk will bring you to the local pub where you can enjoy a delicious evening meal.
