Joy's Cottage

About this property

Tucked away around the corner from the heart of Snettisham is this beautifully appointed, pet-friendly cottage in Norfolk, Joy's Cottage. Thoughtfully decorated throughout, this semi-detached cottage offers an enclosed garden, high-quality facilities and is within easy reach of local amenities for a family or group of five's staycation. Park on the roadside in front of the cottage and follow the shared path up to the entrance; there's a handy, private outbuilding to store bikes and golf clubs during your stay! The interior of Joy's Cottage has been wonderfully designed with an industrial and contemporary theme throughout, along with heritage colours and everything you need for a self-catering holiday.

Be welcomed into the kitchen/diner, a spacious room to socialise with your loved ones and cook your favourite meals in the well-equipped kitchen. Keep the family chef company at the breakfast bar before setting the table for everyone to enjoy a hearty meal together. Whether it's curling up with a good book or catching your favourite show on the Smart TV, the sitting room provides cushioned seating, a rustic coffee table and a woodburning stove. Dine alfresco on summer evenings in your very own, private enclosed garden with outdoor seating; turn on the fairy lights for a festival feel and toast to your retreat, whilst your canine companion is welcome to stretch their legs.

Complete fun-filled days with a relaxing soak in the sleek bathroom, housing a bath and shower over to suit all guests. Three bedrooms have their own unique theme, solid wooden beds and industrial-style lighting; choose between two doubles and a single, each with storage space and a high-quality finish. The peaceful village of Snettisham is a superb location along Norfolk's coast; a convenience store, two pubs, an antique shop, The Old Store Café and The Old Bank, an excellent restaurant, are all just around the corner. As featured on BBC's Springwatch, 'Wild Ken Hill' is within walking distance of Joy's Cottage, a 4,000-acre rewilding and regenerative agricultural project, welcoming dog walkers and nature lovers alike.

Snettisham Beach is also nearby, home to an internationally renowned RSPB nature reserve attracting keen bird watchers every year to see the migrations across the continent! A little further along the Norfolk Coast AONB are the stunning beaches of Holme, Holkham and Blakeney, all scattered with numerous other wildlife sanctuaries and attractions. Budding historians can visit beautiful National Trust properties such as Oxborough and Blickling Hall, and also Sandringham House and Gardens. Those seeking a little more can visit the bustling cities of Norwich, Cambridge and Ely, whilst The Broads National Park are within driving distance for unforgettable landscapes to explore.

However, you wish to spend your holiday, make Joy's Cottage your home-from-home in Norfolk.

Snettisham is a classic Norfolk village. The historic structures are known as "gingerbread houses" throughout the neighbourhood. General stores, a Post Office, two inns, a restaurant, and a regular bus service to the bustling, family-friendly seaside town of Hunstanton and ancient King's Lynn are among the village's facilities. The church of St Mary, which stands alone on top of the hill, is well worth a visit, especially to see the intricately detailed tracery flowers on the west window. The old Peddars Way public footpath runs near the settlement, and there is an rspb bird sanctuary close to the beach.
