Heath Cottage

Mattishall, Norfolk

If youÕre looking to escape the hustle and bustle, Heath Cottage puts you at the heart of the countryside, with plenty of local footpaths and bridleways to explore across acres of fields and farm land. Despite the feeling of being away from it all, the cottage is on the outskirts of the village of Mattishall, and youÕre within easy reach of some of NorfolkÕs most historic towns, including Dereham and Wymondham. The county town of Norwich is also just a 20-minute drive away.

Inside this semi-detached cottage, youÕll find plenty of room for you to all relax and enjoy your time away. ThereÕs a sitting room with a wood burning stove to keep you cosy in the cooler months, along with a separate snug and a sitting area in the kitchen too. Two of the bedrooms have zip and link beds that can be converted to twin beds if required.

Despite being thoroughly and tastefully renovated, the property has retained many of its period charms, including its wooden beams. The delightful, enclosed garden is accessible from bifold doors in the kitchen. On a sunny day, thereÕs nothing better than to open the doors fully and enjoy life al fresco on the terrace, complete with hot tub and table tennis, surrounded by the birdsong.

Within an hour's walk of Heath Cottage are the Victoria Inn in Hockering; The Honingham Buck in Honingham; and in the other direction is The Lodge Griddle and Grill in North Tuddenham, all between 2 and 3 miles away.
