A former stable and Coach House, the Gig House has been renovated for 2024 and curated with such love from the owners and it really shows. Dating back over 200 years and constructed from traditional Norfolk flint and brick this detached property offers a warm hug from the moment you step through the door.
Packed with original features but offering all the modern comforts that make for a great holiday, you are sure to fall for this charming property. These owners have thought of everything to ensure that this is one of the most well-equipped holiday properties to choose from. Perfect for a couple or a small family, this romantic retreat is also more than dog-friendly so your furry companions will find welcome hampers that make sure they enjoy their break just as much as you do.
The property offers two bedrooms upstairs (the twin room accessed throught the double room), with quality beds and comfortable mattresses, and downstairs you will find a traditional lounge with a wonderful wood-burning stove and Smart TV, alongside a pretty cottage kitchen and a convenient shower room. One of the biggest draws here though is the gorgeous garden, offering privacy within a paved terrace which is a real sun trap all day long, and an enclosed, mown, quatre-acre paddock, with an abundance of wildlife, and for the sole use of the cottage. This is a lovely cottage in which to unwind, where you can read a book you’ve been meaning to get to by the fire, or in the sunny garden find peace and quiet and indulge in a sense of calmness that may make it hard for you to tear yourself away.
Venturing out, you’ll find yourself less than a mile from both the coastal path and the wide sandy beach at Bacton, a firm favourite with the locals. The area is packed with lovely walks, cycle routes and wildlife viewing opportunities and a great perk of this property is that it is only a short walk from the coast and a short drive from the beautiful Broads too, making this the perfect choice for your Norfolk break. Add in history galore with numerous National Trust properties and small museums, as well as lots of family attractions such as BeWilderwood and so much more.

A very well equipped beautiful cottage in a very quiet setting. Loads to see and do within a short car drive or plenty of walks out of the front door. Definitely a chill out holiday.

Small cottage in an excellent location well appointed with most mod cons. Stairs are very steep but not a problem for able bodied. Parking could be a bit more accessible awkward turning at times.
