About this property

Feltwell 4.2 miles. Tucked away in the civil parish of Methwold near Feltwell in Norfolk, is this superb two-bedroom character cottage, Chalk Cottage. Dating back to the 1850’s this historic cottage takes its name from its make-up of chalk and flint and enjoys an idyllic location with a private enclosed garden and easy access to Brandon and Thetford, making Chalk Cottage an ideal dwelling for a family of four or two couples with two furry friends who are looking to explore Norfolk. Be welcomed into the spacious living/dining room, where you can look forward to curling up on the plush sofas and relaxing in front of your favourite film on the 48” TV with Sky, as the woodburning stove crackles nearby. Pop on your chef’s hat and take your place in the well-equipped kitchen, with washing machine, fridge/freezer and electric oven and hob, ensuring you have everything you need to whip up culinary delights. Fold out the conveniently stored dining table, uncork a bottle of wine and settle down to savour a delicious meal before toasting to a wonderful holiday. If the weather is nice, why not make dinner an alfresco affair on the private patio? Make your way up to the first-floor where you will find a bathroom where you can pour in the bubbles and indulge in a soothing soak in the bath, as well as two-well presented bedrooms, a double with wall-mounted TV, ideal for those lazy Sunday mornings and a triple bunk which is suitable for both adults and children, both with plenty of storage for your belongings. Take advantage of Chalk Cottages’ location with the well-loved chip shop of Rumbles just a stone’s throw away, as well as The George, a village pub which also serves tasty food and local ales, both perfect options for when you fancy a night off from the kitchen. For keen anglers, there are two fantastic fishing lakes nearby, Thornham Fishing Lakes and Fendick’s Fishery, where you can find your catch of the day! After days of exploring, why not treat your guests to a pamper or relaxing massage at the Hythe Court Spa? Just a short drive away is the agricultural village of Feltwell, where you will find a delightful selection of convenience shops where you can pick up ingredients to recreate your favourite holiday meals so far, welcoming pubs and an excellent 9-hole golf course. Walkers and cyclists will delight at the close proximity to Thetford Forest Park, which offers scenic trails, including the Thetford Heath National Nature Reserve, offering superb views, opportunities to spot the local wildlife, as well as the popular Go Ape where you can explore the forest walking along the treetops!

    Perhaps needs some instructions re bins (what to put in which bin and whether bin/s needed moving for collection) as recycling bin had been messed up, with general rubbish, prior to our visit and bin men refused to empty it. Seemed to be quite full so I assume that isn't the first time they refused to empty it. Ended up taking our recycling home with us, didn't have time to empty out the bin ourselves and sort it.

    We liked the added touch of coffee, tea bags and milk available. We left the place as we found it, floors all hoovered and washed etc. It's nice to be nice and we had a nice time. Thanks again. Will definitely return. Best wishes Russ

    Especially nice for our dog as the garden is totally enclosed so could just leave the back door open and he could come and go as he pleased. Cottage nice and cool inside which was a bonus as we were there in the Sept heatwave
