Aptly named Mustard Pot Cottage sits amongst the woodlands of the Felbrigg estate, in the privacy of its own lawned garden. Besides its charming resemblance to a small condiment pot, the two-bedroom cottage is exceptionally cosy inside and oozes lots of quirky character. Intriguing octagonal shaped rooms, narrow winding stairs and arched doorways add to its charm, while bright and modern interior styling and an open fire in the lounge make for a comfortable stay.
The sweeping parklands, woodlands and lake of the estate are on your doorstep. There are lots of waymarked trails for you to follow, as well as a walled garden to explore. As a guest you’re invited to discover the elegant country house of the estate, Felbrigg Hall, free of charge.
Beyond the estate walls, North Norfolk’s heritage coast can be reached within a 10-minute drive. Head to Cromer for its sandy beach, 500 ft pier and links to the Norfolk Coast path. For a slightly wilder coastal scene, drive 30 minutes to Blakeney National Nature Reserve, where you’ll discover its unspoilt sand dunes, marshes and rare wildlife.
Self-catering cottage holidays in the UK and Ireland can still be a green option. You can have the comforts of home and the flexibility to do what you want; when you want - without the hassles of air travel!
