About this property

Ringstead 2.5 miles. Perched upon tranquil grounds in Hunstanton, Norfolk is this quaint single-storey cottage, Woodpecker. Welcoming four guests to bask in the delightful surroundings of the Norfolk Coast AONB, Woodpecker enjoys a peaceful, enclosed garden, two wonderfully-appointed bedrooms and inviting living spaces, ideal for individuals who are desperate to escape the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life. Enter the property to discover a pleasant and well-equipped kitchen/diner hosting all the necessary appliances to make your self-catered stay a success; kick back in the appealing living room and catch up on your favourite show with use of the Smart TV as the designated chef prepares a tasty dish. Relish family mealtimes at the dining table, or when the weather permits, venture to the enclosed garden to tuck into a feast as the sun sets. When the night rolls in, retire to one of two bedrooms, either a king-size or a twin, both thoughtfully decorated with a light and airy interior; when morning comes, freshen up in the family bathroom or for a slow start, indulge a long soak in the bath. If you can tear yourself away, venture into the village of Ringstead, an area peppered with walking trails, restaurants, pubs and of course, the beautiful pebbled Ringstead Beach where you can swim, kayak, windsurf or simply admire the beautiful coastline. Well-positioned to explore the gardens at Norfolk Lavender as well as Ringstead Downs, you will never be short of things to do here. Further afield in Holkham, Holkham Hall and Estate awaits, a stunning Palladian country house where you can tour the grounds, embark on a deer and wildlife safari, and delve into Holkham’s rich 400-year heritage and innovative future. For history buffs, spend the day in King’s Lynn admiring Red Mount Chapel, traversing Lynn Museum or take a relaxing stroll along the River Great Ouse.
