Description
This unique character cottage makes the perfect compact bolt hole, and is tucked away off the main coastal road yet within easy walking distance of the river Stiffkey, coastline, and beaches.
Currently run as a successful holiday let, Poppy Cottage is finished to a high standard throughout and offers a contemporary feel, whilst making the most of the original period features.
Relax in the cosy sitting room, listening to the crackle of the wood-burning stove, or cook up a treat in the fitted kitchen, overlooking the front aspect.
The dual aspect double bedroom enjoys french doors onto the sun terrace, a beautiful view to wake up to.
To the side of the property is a small private courtyard garden with paved sun terrace and ample space for a table and chairs, offering the perfect spot for relaxing and alfresco dining.
STIFFKEY Stiffkey, located between Wells and Blakeney, is one of the most picturesque villages on the north Norfolk coast. The river Stiffkey flowing west to east has carved a valley creating properties with stunning views and a short walk to the tidal marshes. The village is famous for its 'Stewkey Blues', a local blue cockle. It has a good pub, the Red Lion, with real ale and good food. There's also a general store and newsagents. The village is very well placed for the North Norfolk Coast. There is excellent sailing nearby, and superb coastal walks.
Just 4 miles away is the popular seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea, which is set behind a small harbour on the beautiful North Norfolk Coast - its beach was voted The Best British Beach of the Year 2016 by The Times. The town has a maze of narrow streets, old alleys and yards, filled with shops, pubs and cafes and there are many listed and impressive Georgian and Victorian buildings. The town has a doctors' surgery, library, community hall and primary and secondary schools, and, for those that enjoy the water a public house on a boat.
Wells-next-the-Sea is within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the heart of the Heritage Coast between Hunstanton and Weybourne. The beautiful sandy beach, with its pine trees, sand dunes and colourful beach huts, can be reached by a pleasant walk, car or alternatively you could just enjoy the Quay with its active fishing fleet and sailing club. Both Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham Woods are designated Nature Reserves, and walkers and birdwatchers enjoy the North Norfolk Coastal Path, creeks and marshes.
