Property code: OC-2295

When you’re not busy strolling the country lanes around Great Plumstead, head into Norwich and take a walking tour of the cathedral (5.5 miles). Check out the ancient tombs, see the 6th-century bishop's throne and gaze upon the striking 315-foot-tall spire – the second highest in England. Alternatively, browse the works of Picasso, Giacometti and Henry Moor at the city’s Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts (9 miles), or let the kids run wild on the rope bridges at BeWILDerwood (9 miles). Alternatively, head to Great Yarmouth (18 miles) to wander along the Golden Mile’s promenade. Stay until the evening and you’ll see the seafront lit by twinkling decorative sails all the way from Britannia Pier to the Pleasure Beach.

Light, bright and beautifully-styled throughout, this grand house is the perfect place for families or groups of friends to get together to enjoy the very best of country living. Step inside and make yourself at home in the spacious sitting room, with plenty of comfortable seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner. It’s the ideal place to relax with your loved ones after a day of exploring. When it’s time to eat, head through to the large kitchen/dining area, where you’ll find everything you need – an induction hob, double oven, fridge, dishwasher, microwave and Nespresso coffee machine. There’s also a handy utility room with a washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer. Rustle up some dinner for your group and host a meal to remember around the table in the dining area, or head outside to the garden and dine alfresco. After dinner, crack open a bottle of wine and curl up by the wood burner in the sitting room, before retiring to one of the four lovely bedrooms on the first floor – a king-size bedroom with smart TV and en-suite shower room, one super king with a zip and link bed that can be set up as twin beds on request, another super king bedroom and one twin. Rounding off the first-floor layout is a chic family bathroom with a bath – a pleasant addition to the stylish shower room and separate WC on the ground floor.

Head outside and you’ll find a large lawned garden to the front of the property – a beautiful spot to enjoy your morning coffee. To the rear, you’ll discover a partially-enclosed space with a charcoal BBQ and garden furniture. It’s a great spot to sip a glass of wine as you whip up an al fresco dinner. Off-road parking is available for four cars.

The Firs had everything we needed for a family reunion and a party in Norwich. Excellent location, easy access to the City and the coast or Broads. A spacious, clean and well equipped holiday let. Would highly recommend The Lodge at Salhouse and Jasons fish and chips in Rackheath.

The property was quirky, comfortable, spacious, well equipped, clean and generally well presented although the untidy state of the gardens created an unloved vibe. The situation of the second shower room (as far as possible from the bedrooms) is a major inconvenience. The kitchen equipment was modern and good quality although quite complicated toRead more operate and required much study of the manufacturers instruction manuals provided. Despite it's good points Hide

The cottage is really well placed for exploring Norfolk with Norwich 15 minutes away and lots of other attractions on your doorstep - Wroxham, Bewilderwood, Blickling, private swimming pools and more. Its a very clean and very well equipped cottage, we didnt miss anything which meant it was very easy to cook while we were away. Its very spacious anRead mored comfortable too. It has a Nespresso coffee machine that takes Vertuo pods which cant be bought in supermarkets, so just remember to buy some beforehand if you want to use the machine. That said there is also a cafetire so plenty of options! Hide
