Positioned right in the heart of Fakenham, known as the gateway to Norfolk due to its easy reach of coastal towns and villages such as Wells-next-the-sea, Holkham, Brancaster, Burnham Market, Holt, Cromer and Sheringham, which are all between 15-30min drive, Cromwell Cottage is the perfect base for a relaxing Norfolk escape.

Please note, due to its age, whilst the property has stunning 9-12ft ceilings on the ground and first floor, the staircases are very steep and there is reduced height access at the top floor on entering the room and then separating the bedroom and ensuite. This may make it unsuitable for those with reduced mobility and young children
