2 Bedroom Cottage in Thetford

This welcoming cottage from 1862 is all wonky beams, cosy corners and charming Norfolk character, and with four pups invited too, it means the whole family can enjoy an outdoorsy break in East Anglia. Set in Saham Hills, you've got a variety of local walks available, plus Thetford Forest is 7 miles away for pine-scented trails and the kind of peace that makes you forget your phone exists. The shop is 2 miles away, and you're 1 mile from a pub or restaurant for a post-walk pint and something hearty. For the wildlife watchers of the group, head to Weeting Heath (16 miles) or RSPB Lakenheath Fen (19.5 miles), and stroll the lakeside tracks at Lynford Arboretum (11 miles). And, if you fancy milling around the Georgian architecture and lively market, Swaffham is just 8 miles away.

This delightful semi-detached hideaway delivers the perfect blend of traditional appeal and contemporary comforts. Enter and discover an open-plan kitchen/diner, where you can make a cup of tea or start whipping up a feast using the ample appliances. Use the four-person dining table to enjoy delicious meals or play board games in the evening. When you’re ready to switch off, retreat to the cosy sitting room, where a smoke effect electric wood burner steals the spotlight between sink-into sofas and the TV. Finishing this floor is the WC. Upstairs, two thoughtfully presented bedrooms await: a super-king-size with en-suite shower room and WC and a super-king-size zip-and-link. Look up, and you’ll spot exposed beams and a soaring vaulted ceiling that instantly makes the space feel special. These are served by a bathroom with a bath, shower and WC.

Outside, the hot tub lures you to enjoy a night time soak and stargaze. When you’re not dipping in the bubbles, enjoy you private garden and dining furniture and tuck into an al fresco breakfast. There’s also a handy shared utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer.
