As soon as you pull up to this elegant brick-and-flint farmhouse, you'll notice the traditional characteristics that make this home so charming. The whole family can take it in turns to relax in the luxurious hot tub after an alfresco lunch, while kids will love the games and the table tennis in the garden. Inside, you'll find wooden beams, brick fireplaces, and exposed flint walls. But period features are not all this house has to offer. Downstairs, there are two sitting rooms (both with wood-burners) and a modern kitchen diner. Grown-ups can sit back and relax in front of the fire in one living room, while the second is the perfect hideaway for children and pets with a chest full of toys. And if you don't feel like cooking, the village pub across the road is the perfect way to end the evening. There’s plenty to explore further afield including Cromer Beach, just over a ten-minute drive away.
