Flint Cottage is a charming holiday retreat located in West Caister, near Caister-on-Sea in Norfolk, set against the serene backdrop of the Norfolk landscape. This single-storey cottage, which accommodates up to six guests, is situated on a quiet country lane at the foot of a hill, providing stunning south-facing views. Its proximity to the Norfolk Broads National Park allows visitors to immerse themselves in nature, with opportunities for wildlife watching right from the windows or along the local footpaths and lanes.
The interior of Flint Cottage is designed for comfort and convenience, featuring a spacious kitchen diner equipped with modern appliances such as an electric cooker, microwave, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. The dining table, which seats six, offers picturesque views of the surrounding fields. The kitchen flows into a large living room, where guests can relax on comfortable sofas and chairs by the original brick fireplace, now fitted with an electric woodburner. This space is perfect for family gatherings, game nights, or enjoying entertainment on the Smart TV.
The cottage comprises three bedrooms, including two king-sized doubles and one twin room, all characterized by charming small steps that enhance the Victorian cottage's unique character. One of the double bedrooms includes an en-suite shower room, while the other features an en-suite WC and basin. The main bathroom is equipped with a fitted bath and overhead shower, ensuring ample facilities for guests. A large garden extends from the living room, complete with a furnished patio area and a charcoal BBQ, while a 'wilderness' area with fruit trees invites exploration and wildlife spotting.
Flint Cottage also offers off-road parking for two cars and is conveniently located just a short drive from Caister beach, making it an ideal base for families eager to explore the Norfolk coast. For larger groups, Flint Cottage can be booked alongside the neighboring Dairy Cottage, which accommodates dogs, providing flexible lodging for up to 12 guests. However, potential visitors should note that the cottageās rural setting may result in unreliable Wi-Fi and slower internet speeds than usual, a consideration for those who may prioritize connectivity during their stay.
