"The pictures of the accommodation we saw before arriving looked very nice – the reality was even better. The decor is delightful. There was everything here we could have wanted."
"Remus is if a very high standard, a five star rating in our eyes!"
"What a lovely place... we have been travelling all over the world and haven’t been to a place like this. Peaceful, stylish, fantastic view and the most lovely people around us".
This stunning property is on a picturesque Norfolk farm with views over a wonderful unspoiled valley, towards a remote church, with occasional horses and pretty guinea fowl wandering by. It’s a wonderful and relaxing place to stay - with a beautifully furnished interior and generous, well planned outside space. This atmospheric and top quality Norfolk holiday cottage sleeps 4 people and has wireless broadband access.
There’s a cosy living room with a wood-burning stove, two bedrooms with en-suite bath or shower rooms and a kitchen diner. Outside is a large patio area with garden furniture where you can enjoy gorgeous views over open countryside. There are footpaths close by for you to explore and a pub serving real ales within a 10 minute walk.
Living room: The front door leads into a entrance lobby with coat hooks and room to store outside boots. This leads into the cosy living room the focus of which is a brick chimney breast with a wood-burning stove, a 2 seater sofa with a matching armchair, a wicker chair with cushions and a coffee table. There’s a TV and DVD player and two windows with views of the lawn.
Bedroom : A large bedroom with a superking size bed. The bed can be separated to create twin beds on request at the time of booking.
En suite 1: This has a bath with a shower over, a hand basin, w.c. and towel radiator.
Bedroom 2: A double bedroom with a built-in wardrobe, chest of drawers, bedside tables and views of the garden.
En suite 2: This has a shower, hand basin, w.c. and towel radiator.
Kitchen Diner with patio doors to the back garden: The kitchen has built-in appliances including an electric hob and oven, slimline dishwasher, washing machine, and microwave. There’s a table with four chairs, and the patio doors give lovely views across open fields.
All the rooms have tiled floors and under-floor heating.
Outside: There is a large patio with a table and chairs for dining on warm days, plus off road parking. The patio is screened from the neighbouring holiday cottage, with both cottages sharing a large lawned area beyond this. Please note that traffic noise can sometimes be heard, depending on the wind direction.
Look out for the resident guinea fowl, chickens and ducks that graze on the lawn. The farmer told us that a chicken often visits his house to lay an egg in his armchair – that’s a good home delivery service!
Remus is one of a pair of self-catering cottages at Manor Farm in Larling, and they are ideal for a cottage holiday in Norfolk. Click here to see details of the second property, which sleeps two people. There are a number of footpaths and bridal ways nearby crossing open fields and countryside. There’s a pub within a ten minute walk which is owned by the brother of the farmer so you can be assured of a warm welcome. The farm is close to the A11 and convenient for trips into both Norfolk and Suffolk.
There are many local attractions in the area, including Thetford Forest which is ideal for walking and cycling (if you’re feeling more adventurous try the ‘Go Ape’ high wire experience at High Lodge where you’ll be fitted with a harness before tackling rope bridges, and zip slides high above the forest floor!). Then there’s Banham Zoo and Grimes Graves, a 5,000 year old flint mine where visitors can decend 30 feet by ladder to explore one of the excavated shafts. Further afield there’s Oxburgh Hall, a beautiful 15th century moated house owned by the National Trust, with secret doors and a priest hole; and then there’s Norwich with it’s beautiful cathedral, historic buildings and independent shops.
All prices include 100% cotton bed linen and towels, heating and electricity plus a welcome bottle of wine and biscuits to help you get your break off to a relaxing start.
