Willow Cottage (2), North Creake, Norfolk

Deceptively sized inside, Willow Cottage looks charming and cute, and still delivers big on character, comfort and personal touches inside and out. Furnished with an eclectic mix of vintage and contemporary styles, and with a decked area of garden backing onto a stream, Willow Cottage is a hidden treasure conveniently located for exploring the coast and countryside around North Creake.

This gorgeous Grade II listed abode is over 200 years old and was built circa 1800 at the end of George III's reign so comes with all the charm and history you could want. The slightly uneven floors, walls and staircase are testament to its long history. Although it looks small from the front it is big inside and offers a relaxing stay for couples or a family wanting to be in a great location not far from the best beaches in North Norfolk and the uber chic village of Burnham Market, with its numerous restaurants, galleries, shops and deli's/café's.

Willow Cottage is furnished to a high standard with decor and artefacts that the owner has collected over a number of years. Every effort has been made to make each room different and welcoming. The wood burning stove is perfect for cosying up in front of during winter evenings, and the bespoke kitchen is both practical and stylish. Step out into the garden which will positively enchant you on warm sunny days when you can soak up the sun's rays, or find a shady spot in which to dine alfresco. Split into two, the garden runs down to the River Burn and has an enclosed area which is safe for dogs and children. The decked area which backs onto the stream is an idyllic and tranquil spot in which to sit on a summer's evening with a glass of wine or two. Also featured within the garden is a shed filled with an abundance of games for both children and adults to enjoy.

For larger groups, this property is also available to book as a sleeps four or sleeps six option, listed as Willow Cottage (4) (North Creake) and Willow Cottage (North Creake).

When we arrived we found towels left laying in the bath unfolded and was uncertain if cleaned. One bed had covers pulled back as if indicating it was not changed. House needed much better cleaning as there was dust, dog hairs and cobwebs in each room which was dissapointing to find in such a nice house. House was very pet friendly and garden well fenced in. The area was purfect for exploring the coast and local villages. We found some great dog walks around the village. The house had very tight and steep stairs not ideal for young children or older folk. However we enjoyed our stay and with a few improvements it could be a perfect place to stay!
