The Old Stable is a stunning single storey barn conversion, with views over open countryside. Located in rural East Somerton, the cottage is the ideal location to get away from it all whilst being close to the coast. It's a 5 minute drive to Winterton-on-Sea, where long sandy beaches await.
Inside The Old Stable you'll find a modern open plan living area with a comfortable sofa and Smart TV. Plenty of space is set aside for a dining area, and the well equipped kitchen contains a cooker, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher.
A separate utility room houses the washing machine, with a back door leading to a small yard with a lockable shed for bike storage.
The main bedroom has a comfortable king size bed, and the second bedroom has two 3' single beds which can be joined together to make one superking bed. A modern bathroom has a bath and separate walk in shower.
Outside there's plenty of outdoor space with a large garden and patio area, with a charcoal barbecue available from April to the end of September for guests. There's off road parking for 2-3 cars, and free wifi at The Old Stable. 1 dog is welcome at no additional charge. The garden is fully enclosed.
Robin's Rest which sleeps 2 is located next door, meaning these properties can be rented together, totalling 6 guests. Both properties are detached with their own separate enclosed gardens. Robin's Rest and The Old Stable also have their own three acre meadow. A private and safe area for you to exercise or walk your dog. If you wish, you can practice some golf on the mini 4-hole chipping area - just bring your clubs and balls!
The Old Stable is in a rural location close to East Somerton village and just 5 mins drive from the long sandy beach at Winterton-on-Sea.
The Fisherman’s Return pub in Winterton (dog friendly) serves good food, and there's also a village shop, Poppy’s post office and tea rooms (we can recommend the breakfasts), a fish & chip shop and Seal View café at the beach.
There’s an excellent choice of walks nearby and Winterton Dunes is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). From the end of November to the beginning of January it’s pupping season for the local grey seal colony, with literally thousands of them on Horsey beach just 10 mins drive from Winterton. It’s an amazing sight to see.
For cyclists there’s a great choice of routes and trails to enjoy. A little further afield the Norfolk Broads offers scenic boat trips or hire your own boat for the day. There’s also fishing, kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding available.
The seaside town of Gt Yarmouth is only a 15 minute drive away, with a sandy beach, end of pier entertainment, Sea Life centre, amusement arcades, pleasure beach, bowling, cinemas, Venetian Waterways, crazy golf and much more. Norwich is a 40 minute drive away, and offers shopping, museums, restaurants and a choice of theatres.
