Layout

Enter into the kitchen with an linked dining area and big farmhouse table. Off the hall way is a Family bathroom and two downstairs bedrooms one with a en-Suit.

Three connected reception rooms. The main sitting room has windows and glass doors to 3 sides. The lovely oak beams, brick fireplace and soft lighting all give it that real English cottage ambiance. Between the main lounge and sun room is the second reception room which is a good play area for Children, or a quiet place to go perhaps if you need to work a while. The sun room at the west end of the cottage also has windows and glass doors on 3 sides with panoramic views over the grounds and to the fields beyond. You might be amazed what goes by if you keep a watchful eye; an otter deer and stoat have been seen recently.

Upstairs are two large bedrooms one double and one twin at opposite ends of the house, both with dual aspect windows and country views. Shower room with WC.

Outside is a large enclosed games barn, having its own wood stove with seating.


Sleeping Arrangements

There are two large bedrooms upstairs, one double and one twin room. Two Smaller double bedrooms downstairs one with en-suite WC wash basin and rainfall shower.


Exterior

Delightful country cottage tucked away in its own 2 acres, quietly located in the middle of a 200 acre grassland farm. Just the place to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the Broads National Park a peaceful retreat next to nature.

By the back entrance there is a decked area with outdoor seating and a large hot tub. Tucked away in the garden is the summer house, The Haven, with views of the large level lawn. If you need it there's a dog kennel and run.

The River Waveney (300 yards away) runs past the farm and is navigable for yachts and cruisers from the Broads to here, and we have some mooring points on the edge of the meadows our side. Canoes can also use the upper reaches of the river from the bridge at Geldeston Lock towards Ellingham Mill where motorboats don't The River Waveney (300 yards away) runs past the farm and is navigable for yachts and cruisers from the Broads to here, and we have some mooring points on the edge of the meadows our side. Canoes can also use the upper reaches of the river from the bridge at Geldeston Lock towards Ellingham Mill where motorboats can’t reach.

Over half a mile of private fishing on our estate is available to our guests. Bring your tackle for the chance to catch pike, roach, chub and bream.

For walkers the Angles Way happens to cross the farm. It's a 93 mile trail which has been sometimes voted the best waterside walk in Britain. Another popular idea is a fifteen minute level walk across the fields and footbridge to The Locks Inn Community pub at Geldeston which one of the most unique pubs you'll have ever found with a very interesting history. It is so remote it doesn't get mains electricity!
