Fakenham House | Dog-Friendly historic cottage and beach hut at the gateway to the Norfolk coast

2 Bedroom House in Fakenham

Cromwell Cottage is a 17th century cottage reputed to be the oldest surviving building in Fakenham. Named as it is reputed that Cromwell's troops stayed here in the civil war.
At over 400 years old, the property is packed with character, including beams, inglenooks and original oak panelling in the hallway and master bedroom, it also features several witches marks carved onto the beams hundreds of years ago, near doorways, windows and fireplaces to ward off any evil spirits. We challenge you to find them all!
It has now been converted into a cosy holiday home, sleeping 4+2 with all the amenities you expect for a relaxing break. Featuring Egyptian cotton linens, spa-quality towels, a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and the all-important Nespresso coffee machine!
We also have a beach hut situated on the beautiful Wells next the sea beach, a 15min drive away from the cottage, this can be rented by the day by guests at preferential rates - enquire for more details.
The cottage has recently undergone a series of renovations and now features a brand new high-spec kitchen, integrated appliances and quartz worktops
The lounge has an original feature fireplace with a modern wood-burning stove. Wood, kindling and firelighters are provided. There are Smart TVs in the lounge and master bedroom. Both has access to Sky movies, entertainment and full Sky Sports package through NOW TV app.
The property has 2 large bedrooms. The master bedroom on the first floor is approx 275 sqft with a king size bed. Due to the rooms large size, there are also 2 single chair beds that can be made up as singles, or as another king bed, and there is a screen to provide some privacy - perfect for children or a girls weekend! The main shower room is on this floor.
The second floor has also been recently renovated, it must be noted that it is up a narrow staircase with limited head room, but opens up into a spacious room. This room has a kingsize bed with a brand new ensuite shower room
We welcome well-behaved pooches, and there is a secure garden perfect for relaxing.
Positioned right in the heart of Fakenham, known as the gateway to Norfolk due to its easy reach of coastal towns and villages such as Wells-next-the-sea, Holkham, Brancaster, Burnham Market, Holt, Cromer and Sheringham, which are all between 15-30min drive, Cromwell Cottage is the perfect base for a relaxing Norfolk escape.
Please note, due to its age, whilst the property has stunning 9-12ft ceilings on the ground and first floor, the staircases are very steep and there is reduced height access at the top floor on entering the room and then separating the bedroom and ensuite. This may make it unsuitable for those with reduced mobility and young children

Summary: A short stay to explore the Norfolk coast. I loved the attention to detail and decor of the cottage. If you like historic buildings then this place is for you! The top floor room has an old beam across it and is a struggle to get into but the kids liked it so that was a win. The cottage is quite dark inside and just enough social space for two adults and two kids. The courtyard garden is lovely and a great sun trap. Thanks for having us.
