Riverbank Cottage - Saxthorpe

About this property

Located in a peaceful village setting, this cottage is the perfect property for families and groups of friends looking for a relaxing getaway in the Norfolk countryside. Saxthorpe and its sister village of Corpusty are perfectly positioned for exploring the Norfolk coastline where you’ll find pristine beaches and the traditional seaside towns of Cromer, Sheringham, Blakeney and Weybourne (all within 15 miles). Nearby you have the National Trust attraction of Blickling Hall (4.5 miles) near Aylsham, and the heritage Bure Valley Railway (6 miles) that runs from Aylsham directly into The Broads National Park where endless waterside adventures await. Slightly further afield, Wroxham and the elegant Georgian market town of Holt both offer a great day out for the whole family (6.5 miles). For a day in the city, Norwich is just 17 miles away where you can discover daily markets, vibrant bars and eateries, and plenty of local history.

Step into the entrance space of this charming cottage where you can kick off muddy walking boots before heading through to the delightful lounge/diner. In the lounge space, you’ll find a Smart TV beside the roaring open fire – the perfect spot to get cosy for a family movie night. This room also offers access to the peaceful garden through the airy French doors. When stomachs start to rumble, lay the table before walking through to the well-appointed kitchen where you’ll find all you need to whip up memorable holiday feasts for the group. When day turns to night, follow the cottage-style staircase to the first floor and find three charming bedrooms, each with their own charming decor that invite restful nights of sleep. Served by the family bathroom, these rooms include two welcoming doubles and a cosy bunk bedroom that little ones will love.

Surrounding the property is a wonderful, peaceful garden that comes to life at the rear where garden furniture and sounds of the flowing river nearby invite you to start and end each day with al fresco coffees and dinners.
