About this property

Located in Denver, a quaint village in Norfolk, is this stone-fronted two-bedroom dwelling, Lily Cottage. Enjoying a rural setting, situated near River Great Ouse, whilst within proximity to local amenities and featuring a contemporary finish, an enclosed garden, and a sleek kitchen/diner, the cottage welcomes four guests and well-behaved dogs, inviting both families and groups. Use the kitchen/diner as your social hub, to cook, dine and plan your trip, before heading outside to soak up the Norfolk sunshine within your own private garden, both child and pet-friendly. As the nights become colder, make use of the electric effect woodburning stove whilst lounging in front of the Smart TV, before retiring to two spacious bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite; a ground-floor bathroom completes the cottage, adding an element of convenience for all your guests. Within Denver, you'll find an array of amenities to ease your self-catering stay, including the local post office, The Bell Inn pub and restaurant, and Blackstone Engine Bar. Within walking distance you'll also arrive at Denver Windmill, an iconic local landmark with a new tearoom called Violet's, or perhaps take a stroll alongside the picturesque River Great Ouse, whilst Discover Downham will be accessible by car, ideal for those interested in history. You will also find fishing lakes and a golf course in Denver and for those foodies there are some great restaurants just 2 miles away (Allium, Cave Kitchen, Naxos). Travelling towards King's Lynn, enjoy tours of True's Yard Fisherfolk Museum, encircle the grand ruins of Castle Rising, or follow the guided tour around Stories of Lynn - Museum and Old Gaol Cells, featuring old jail cells and artefacts. Reaching Norfolk, appreciate your countryside backdrop by visiting Gooderstone Water Gardens & Nature Trail, perfect for hikers, before arriving at Cambridge, a hub of both heritage and education; The Fitzwilliam Museum, the University Museum of Zoology, and Cambridge Science Centre are musts if you're in the local area. Tour Norfolk with Lily Cottage as your base. Lily Cottage is also just 2 miles away from the local train station with direct links to Cambridge and London as well as being just 35 minutes away from the coast making it the perfect base for those that wish to explore whilst on holiday.

Between Downham Market and Southery, in the county of Norfolk, lies a little community called Denver. On the River Great Ouse, the little community of Denver Sluice Viewing Area is well known for its lovely architecture, particularly its 19th-century windmill, which is still standing today as a well-known monument. The Bell Inn pub and the Latin American restaurant Bandido are two nearby dining options. The neighbourhood post office is also a good place to get the necessities. Downham Market, a thriving community just outside the village, offers a wealth of services and attractions, including tours of the Discover Downham museum and walks through the Willows Nature Reserve, while King's Lynn can be reached by along the River Great Ouse Path.

  • Claire

    It is well maintained, clean and well stocked with glasses, mugs, utensils etc and we were kindly left some goodies and tea/coffee was provided. Would be lovely to visit in the summer and take advantage of the large garden. Unfortunately the wifi was down for the duration of our stay. The owner did try to rectify this and kept in communication, but unfortunately it wasn't fixed until we left and also meant no access to TV due to the set-up. It did impact our visit as we were all on the same mobile network and had very little signal, which made communication with family we were visiting more difficult. Would recommend Luke's taxi's from Downham Market who helped us with travel while we were there.

    Very Comfortable. The owner was very understanding following a breakage. Excellent secure garden for the dog.

  • Tracey

    Would be nice if the main bedroom had a bigger bed (so used to a Superking). The bath towels were tiny too. The en-suite was a great space although there was quite a potent smell in there, certainly nothing was bad in this property that would not let us come back to it, thoroughly recommend it to anyone else. Would also have been nice to get live tv (free view at the very least) we could use the Smart TV, but live TV was not available on ITVX (missed Emmerdale and had to watch on catch up next day) we did log into our Netflix account though so no deal breaker. Lovely cottage
