Traditional Norfolk cottage tucked away on a quiet lane in Sedgeford

Off Piste Cottage is located in a conservation area and sits on a peaceful country lane opposite the village church. Enjoying a slightly elevated, sunny position, the cottage is just three miles inland from the coast. Historically linked to one of the local country estates, the cottage has been simply but stylishly refurbished. Comfortably furnished and decorated to reflect the cottage's charm, character and original features and enhanced by splashes of colour, family antique furniture and personal wall art. All rooms are sunny and bright. On the ground floor, the kitchen, which overlooks the south facing, private enclosed garden, leads through to a cosy snug with wood burning stove to light during chilly months, making it the most convivial room for enjoying autumn and winter evenings. A separate sitting room, with feature fire place, benefits from a widescreen television with a full Sky package to enjoy. There's also a family bathroom on this floor with a walk-in shower as well as a bath. Upstairs you find the three bedrooms - a double, twin and single. The garden features a sheltered patio and bench seating, where you can relax in the afternoon and evening sun while taking in the countryside views. Off Piste Cottage is a short drive away from the West Norfolk coast, with the renowned 'winter wildlife spectacular', where tens of thousands of waders gather and whirl around the Wash estuary in winter. It's also a great base for seeing and hearing the mass gatherings of geese in winter as they feed in the fields around the village and noisy skeins fly overhead to and from their roosting sites. With lovely walks available from your doorstep, where you are bound to see hares and other wildlife, it really is a great base for naturalists. You're also close to pretty villages and the Victorian seaside resort of Hunstanton. The beautiful north coast beaches are just a little further around the coast.
