2 Bedroom Cottage in Loddon

A spacious barn in the tranquil countryside between Rockland St Mary and Loddon in the Yare Valley, just 11 miles from the historic city of Norwich. Ideal for a small family or group keen to discover The Broads and the surrounding countryside, the barn features an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, underfloor heating and a large enclosed garden perfect children’s games.


Located along a narrow, tree-lined country lane, the single-storey barn has a frontage which is a striking - but equally tasteful - contrast to the large bright rooms found inside. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a welcoming space, one for the dog to make its own. It features the original beams and bathes in natural light pouring in from large patio doors and windows looking out onto the countryside beyond. This area is a wonderful gathering point throughout the day, whether enjoying a lazy brunch, an afternoon gaming binge or an indulgent supper and drinks. The barn’s en-suite king-size bedroom and twin bedroom are beautifully appointed and are just a few metres away from the large family bathroom. Children will be in their element in the enclosed garden, split between a large lawned area and a patio from which older and wiser heads can enjoy the sights and sounds of the countryside.


The quiet lanes and gently undulating countryside around Claxton are fantastic for walking and cycling. The barn lies between the village of Rockland St Mary (2 miles) and Loddon (4.5 miles), a small town which is the perfect launch pad for discovering The Broads via the River Chet. Nature lovers will be in their element at the nature reserves that follow the River Yare (4 miles) or Whitlingham Country Park (9.5 miles). There are family- and dog-friendly attractions in Norwich (11 miles), a fascinating city worth a day of the holiday alone.
