About this property

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the market town of King’s Lynn and approached by winding country roads, is this well-presented, semi detached cottage, The Artist's Retreat. Surrounded by fields and farmlands this spacious accommodation is perfect for a family seeking a tranquil retreat in which to explore the delights of this corner of East Anglia. After soaking up your wonderful surroundings, be welcomed into the compact, yet well-equipped kitchen which comes with everything you could possibly need to prepare a picnic for your countryside rambles or a delicious home-cooked meal for those relaxing evenings in. From here, you will find a well-presented dining room which leads into the inviting sitting room, where the open fire takes centre stage before the plush sofas, where you can look forward to sinking into and soaking up the views from the characterful sash windows. After an action-packed afternoon, venture up the staircase to retire to one of the bedrooms, each boasting a refreshing colour palette, and elegant furnishings. Choose between a king-size double, a standard double and a single, designed to ensure a flexible sleeping arrangement to suit the needs of your group. If you can tear yourself away from this wonderful property, a short car journey will bring you to the town of King’s Lynn, where you will be delighted by the selection of bistros and eateries that await you to cater to every taste, in addition to shops for picking up the essentials. For those feeling adventurous, head to The Walks where you will find a magnitude of opportunities for walking and cycling, or brush up on the local history by discovering Castle Rising. During the summer months, head to the coast where you will be spoilt for choice by the glorious North Norfolk beaches, as well as the beauty of the RSPB Nature Reserve being in close reach where you can discover nature like no other. With the picturesque city of Cambridge being just a scenic train journey away too, The Artist's Retreat is a superb base for exploring the delights of this wonderful location.

King's Lynn is a seaport and market town resting on the River Great Ouse, just 15 miles away from Hunstanton. Within the town you will find a magnitude of merchant houses, art galleries and museums and the Custom House, built by Henry Bell in 1683 displays the maritime history of King's Lynn. The surrounding Norfolk countryside is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, renowned for its sunsets and lovely beaches.

    We have stayed with Sykes Cottages many times and this was definitely not up to the usual standard. The owner was really unhelpful and completely unwilling to listen to any complaints. This is a lovely little cottage, in a great position,and could have been perfect but for many deficiencies in comfort. We have emailed Sykes with a full report

  • Shirley

    Our host, Bridgit, was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay and returned home thoroughly relaxed.

  • Carole

    Comfortable beds . Water pressure not a problem. Kitchen fully equipped. A toilet brush would be useful by both toilets.! A lovely quiet place plenty of room for parking.
