The property

Brimming with over 200 years of character and charm, Forge House is a delightful, three-bedroom cottage, located in the Norfolk village of Cley Next The Sea.

Well-positioned within the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Forge House has been sympathetically-restored, retaining many original features, whilst ideally set for outdoor enthusiasts and keen birdwatchers.

Park up to the roadside and head indoors to be met by the well-equipped, traditional kitchen, housing all the essentials, including a washing machine and dishwasher.

Continuing through, find the living/dining room with plush armchairs to sink into, whilst the dining table is made for family meals with delightful beams overhead; if the weather allows, the rear garden offers a lovely area to dine alfresco whilst your furry companion safely roams.

As the night unfolds, head upstairs to relax in the sitting room, oozing a homely feel, or locate the snug for a reading nook, for some peace and quiet from the rest of the home.

Three bedrooms are on offer, a king-size, a twin, and a single, all serviced by a spacious bathroom, where you can prepare for your coming days.

The village itself is dotted with independent shops, lovely eateries, and traditional taverns, where you can stock up on the essentials at the Picnic Fayre deli, dine out and enjoy a tipple at The George and Dragon, tour the local book shop, or grab your walking boots and start your adventure across Cley Marshes.

Travelling west, Blakeney National Nature Reserve is also a must-visit for hiking and wildlife spotting, also offering the opportunity to board a seasonal Temple Seal Trip at Blakeney Point, before ending your evening with a delicious meal at The Wiveton Bell.

Beachgoers will enjoy the atmosphere of Cromer Pier and shoreline, with the Amazona Zoo nearby ideal for families, or for a day of history and beautiful architecture, tour the grounds of Felbrigg Hall, Gardens & Estate, with both lakeside and woodland views on offer.

All of this awaits at Forge House.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £300.
