Sedgeford is a picturesque village located in the northwestern corner of Norfolk, just a short distance from some of the region's most beautiful beaches, including Heacham, known for its renowned Lavender Farm. The village is conveniently situated only five miles from Hunstanton, which offers a variety of amenities such as shops, a golf course, a Sea Life centre, and a stunning beach. The ancient Roman road, Peddars Way, traverses Sedgeford and leads to the breathtaking Norfolk Coastal Path, inviting visitors to explore the remarkable Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which features numerous nature reserves like Blakeney Point and RSPB Titchwell.
The accommodation is a charming traditional carrstone cottage dating back to 1823, showcasing original features like exposed beams that enhance its character. Upon entering, guests are greeted by a bright and inviting lounge furnished with comfortable seating, a TV/DVD/Blu-ray setup, and an assortment of books, games, and maps, providing a cozy retreat after a day of exploration. A landline phone is available for incoming and emergency calls, ensuring connectivity when needed. The dining room is tastefully decorated and accommodates six guests, complete with a hi-fi system for entertainment.
The cottage boasts a spacious galley-style kitchen that overlooks the garden through a stable door, fully equipped with modern appliances including an electric fan oven, microwave, and large fridge/freezer. A utility room houses the washing machine and laundry facilities for added convenience. On the ground floor, there is also a shower room with a WC. Upstairs, guests will find three comfortable bedrooms: two doubles (one with a king-size bed and TV) and a single room with garden views, accompanied by a bathroom featuring a bath and WC.
Outside, the fully enclosed garden offers a delightful space for relaxation and outdoor dining, complete with a patio, lawn, garden furniture, and a BBQ, making it perfect for al fresco meals. The property provides off-road parking for two cars, although drivers of low-slung vehicles should be cautious of the driveway's incline. Additionally, visitors can meet the resident bears, Harvey and Harriet, who reside at Honey Cottage and enjoy accompanying guests on their adventures. This serene setting and well-appointed cottage make Sedgeford an ideal getaway for families or small groups seeking a peaceful retreat near the coast.
