Tucked away in a quiet spot behind a former inn, this cottage is just a short walk from the centre of the lively market town of Aylsham. Home to weekly food and produce markets together with an array of shops, cafes and pubs, the town is full of community spirit. A five-minute drive will bring you to the impressive National Trust Blickling Estate, a breath-taking Jacobean mansion surrounded by historic parks and gardens of ancient yew hedges and Bure meadows. While a 30-minute drive south will bring you to the bustling county capital of Norwich, head north to the spectacular Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to experience Norfolk’s wildlife, sandy beaches and quaint coastal towns.
Inside, this cottage is brimming with traditional charm, with exposed beams, cottage windows and cosy room proportions throughout.

The sitting/dining room next door is a good-sized room with exposed beams, a feature fireplace and electric woodburner, perfect for those cosy evenings in.
