Set within the extensive grounds of a 16th-century Grade II listed home (which once served Bromholm Priory as a working farm), this little cottage makes the perfect setting for a rustic retreat on the Norfolk coast. And with direct access to Bacton beach as well as the use of a communal swimming pool, you’ll find yourself transported to a wonderful state of relaxation. Inside, the owners have retained the traditional features of this old stable building and added in a range of contemporary comforts. From the Tudor brick fireplace to the wooden beams and snug bedrooms, this is a wonderful place to get cosy and share quality time together. Outside, you’ll find a private garden with a barbecue – perfect for embracing the magic of outdoor living. From here, make your way to the thatched barn house to enjoy a refreshing swim in the communal pool or an energising workout in the mini gym. Children (and adults) will love the playful spirit of the gardens – there’s a giant chess set, seesaw and trampoline as well as a games room in the old gig house. Days can be spent hiking along the coast or following in the footsteps of pilgrims to... the ruins of Bromholm Priory – just a short walk away.
