About this property
Situated in the genteel coastal village of Heacham, Cheney Hollow is a traditional Norfolk carrstone and flint detached cottage full of charm and character, set in mature landscaped gardens. This dog and family-friendly cottage was originally three farm labourers cottages, now converted into a larger fully modernised property within easy reach of some excellent pubs, world-renowned birding locations, and many other attractions.
The bright triple aspect kitchen/ breakfast room forms the heart of the home, and is well-equipped with an Aga and Neff double oven, plus all the essentials any enthusiastic chef could need. There is plenty of space for everyone to spread out, with a choice of reception rooms, a games room hosting a small snooker table and football table, a playroom for younger children, as well as a large enclosed garden featuring a terrace and lawns. Three generous first floor bedrooms all have access to an en-suite bath or shower. For larger families, there is a sofa bed in the conservatory/ playroom which is suitable for accommodating two extra children, if required.
Cheney Hollow is located between the two shingled sandy beaches of North Beach and South Beach; ideal for long beach walks with the dogs. Heacham has many footpaths to discover, and a great beach side promenade that stretches all the way to the iconic carrstone cliffs of neighbouring Hunstanton. Look out for popular Bordoli's pizza truck that visits the village on a Wednesday evening, and be sure to sample the gooiest of treats from Breakfast and Brownies on the high street. There is also a great antiques shop and cafe to be found next to the Tesco Express. For a larger supermarket, Lidl is located on on the road to Snettisham, and there is a big Tesco in Hunstanton, which also has EV chargers in the car park and a fuel station. For a special culinary experience, head inland to the village of Docking to sample the delights of the Nest Farmhouse, run by a Michelin star award winning team, or head further along the coast from Heacham to Old Hunstanton to find Michelin restaurant, The Neptune.
For larger groups the neighbouring cottage, Badgers Den, can be booked with Cheney Hollow. Cheney Hollow is also available as a sleeps two option, Cheney Hollow (2), or sleeps eight option, Cheney Hollow.
