Surrounded by countryside, South Creake is a typical North Norfolk village with the River Burn flowing beside the green, where there’s a children’s playground, tennis courts and a bowling club. The village’s medieval church hosts concerts each summer as part of the North Norfolk Music Festival, while neighbouring North Creake has a friendly pub/restaurant and, a little further on, a quaint pop-up café and range of independent stores sit close to the ruins of Creake Abbey (2.5 miles). Fakenham (6 miles) is a thriving market town home to the only National Hunt Racecourse in Norfolk. Alternatively, take a 4.5-mile drive to Burham Market to find upmarket boutiques, galleries, antique centres, and eateries. The Holkham Estate (8.5 miles) has sweeping sands, a stately home and nature reserve, while Wells-next-the-Sea has a characterful quayside where you’ll find fish and chip shops plus boat trip opportunities.
Located along the main coastal road through the village, this handsome holiday home has a brick and flint facade that’s synonymous with North Norfolk. Step through the front door into a charming sitting room, with a three-seater sofa and loveseat arranged before the wood burner and Smart TV. Stylish flooring, ceiling beams and a calm colour palette make this the setting for companionable evenings; choose a book from the shelves or open the bi-fold doors onto the rear garden, and you can unwind in true home-from-home comfort. Self-catering is fuss-free in the chic kitchen, which has all the essentials for preparing tasty meals as well as a coffee machine for your morning cuppa. Adjacent, the dining room is simply divine, with an exposed stone feature wall and generously sized dining suite. When it’s time to sleep, a curved, cottage-style staircase winds up from the sitting room to the first-floor landing. There’s a rope handrail on one side to aid your ascent; a chair by the landing window makes this a cosy spot to rest or read, and there’s hanging space for clothes too. Beyond, there’s a choice of two blissful bedrooms, each with a double bed and space for your belongings. A feature fireplace in one of these rooms evokes the period of the property. Completing the comfort for all, the bathroom is a chic space, with a Bluetooth speaker so you can listen to your favourite playlist as you freshen up.
Fully enclosed with willow fencing and with a gate giving direct access to the parking spaces immediately behind, the courtyard-style garden here is a beautiful space. Fire up the charcoal BBQ and enjoy al fresco dining on the patio. For more intimate moments, the gravelled area features sheltered seating complete with somewhere to rest your drinks, and lights for after-dark ambience. If you’re holidaying with four-legged friends, the dedicated dog shower will make light work of washing muddy paws at the end of each day’s adventures.
