About this property

Orchard Cottage (BT), Burnham Thorpe, Norfolk

Spacious, comfortable and well-equipped, you will find this super brick and flint detached house tucked away in a quiet backwater of this pretty 'Burnhams' village (once home to Admiral Lord Nelson) which enjoys very easy access to both the coast, rural North Norfolk and the chi chi neighbouring village of Burnham Market.

Orchard Cottage has a very welcoming and relaxing home-from-home feel which greets you as you walk in the front door. The house is well proportioned and furnished in a slightly more traditional style which is a lovely contradiction to the current Scandi trend, but 'hyggae' is well and truly evident all the same! On the ground floor there is a large well-equipped breakfast kitchen with a very handy adjoining utility room (perfect for drying coats, boots and damp dogs), a super dual aspect spacious and bright sitting room with two seating areas, an open fire and doors leading into the garden. There is an additional television room/snug which is ideal for younger members of the family to use or anyone who is looking for a quiet place to read, study or work. There is also a single bedroom and cloakroom. On the first floor you will find three further bedrooms (two king-size and a twin) and two bathrooms (one is en-suite). Outside there is a generous-sized enclosed garden; perfect for soaking up warm, sunny days and allowing children and dogs to run around safely. In autumn and winter great skeins of geese fly straight over the house.

Orchard Cottage is a truly lovely Norfolk hideaway, which will suit all manner of holidaymakers; one or two families, couples and friends around the year. Ideally tucked away on a quiet back lane, yet you really are not too far from everything you might want to see or do, be it shopping, walking, enjoying a fabulous meal out, birdwatching, cycling or sailing. If you would like to bring your boat along, there's plenty of room for it on the driveway - nearby Burnham-Overy-Staithe has wonderful sailing. Holkham Hall is just down the road, where you can hire bikes to explore its stunning deer-filled parkland, and a visit to the wide, sandy far reaching beach at Holkham Bay is a 'must-do' at any time of the year.

Additional Information:
One well-behaved dog welcome (small additional charge). Two small dogs will be considered.
Duvets and pillows are synthetic.

Perfect base for exploring North Norfolk.
Orchard Cottage offers an extremely comfortable, well equipped and picturesque base from which to explore the many delights of North Norfolk. We particulary enjoyed walking in and between 'the Burnhams' and visiting the superb beaches at Brancaster and Holkham. This was our first visit to this area of outstanding natural beauty, it won't be our last!

Spacious house in the country
Lovely well equipped spacious property in the countryside. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Burnham Market, but easy enough to get to. A wood burner would be a much better option than an open fire, and some updating needed in some rooms (primarily kitchen and bathrooms) to make the property more accessible for all ages.

Lovely cottage
This was one of the best cottages we have had in many years of October holidays. Everything you could possibly need was provided. Beds very comfortable, lots of space, hooks on the backs of doors (! - not always provided), good lighting, seats outside front and back. Generally excellent. The only quibble was the rather poor shower arrangement in the master bedroom. Altogether we would thoroughly recommend Orchard Cottage - and the local pub is very good too.

Great cottage for large family with pet dog in lovely quiet location
This was our second weeklong stay in Orchard Cottage. Even though the weather was unremittingly dull, we have had a very enjoyable week. The cottage is spacious and has a large enclosed lawn at the back, which makes it ideal for dog lovers. Its location is in a quiet village, near enough to Burnham Market, Holkham Hall and Wells-next-the -Sea to enjoy their facilities, yet far enough from the madding crowds; and the Lord Nelson pub has reopened after several years of furlough. There are some easy going walks in the immediate area, though one requires transport to get to more interesting hiking terrain. Our only complaint is that we haven't been able to retrieve property that we left behind at the cottage, despite repeated requests over the past 6 weeks, which we presume is a fault of Norfolk Hideaways rather than of the owners.
