    “What a beautiful cottage!”

    !! Located in a very peaceful & pretty village, the Croft exceeded our expectations in every way. Bright & airy, with the sun blazing in from every angle during our stay, the cottage is also very tastefully furnished, cosy, well equipped & immaculately clean. We used it as a base to explore Norwich; the Broads, incl. Ranworth mere; the North Norfolk coast and the Suffolk coast incl. Sutton Hoo, Aldeburgh & the lost village of Dunwich.

    !! Located in a very peaceful & pretty village, the Croft exceeded our expectations in every way. Bright & airy, with the sun blazing in from every angle during our stay, the cottage is also very tastefully furnished, cosy, well equipped & immaculately clean. We used it as a base to explore Norwich; the Broads, incl. Ranworth mere; the North Norfolk coast and the Suffolk coast incl. Sutton Hoo, Aldeburgh & the lost village of Dunwich. Evenings were spent walking out directly on paths & trails in all directions, with sightings of red kite & a little owl among the wildlife. Would recommend without hesitation!

About the location

WATTON

Swaffham 10 miles; Thetford 15 miles; Norwich 23 miles.

The well-served market town of Watton is in the district of Breckland, just less than 25 miles from Norwich. Perfectly positioned for access to the whole of Norfolk and North Suffolk, this town is thought to be where the 'Babes in the Wood' were abandoned in Wayland Wood. You will see on the town sign that there are two babes, and a hare jumping over the barrel reflecting the town name; wat being the local dialect word for hare, and ton for barrel. There is a traditional market held every Wednesday morning with produce including freshly caught fish, and there are two supermarkets and a number of independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs to enjoy. Within reach is the popular Thetford Forest Park, a number of golf courses, other market towns and not forgetting the cathedral city of Norwich. A convenient base for your Norfolk adventure.

This property has a Good Housekeeping Bond of £100
