Head out on long country and woodland walks from this exceptional holiday home near the village of Hemblington, in Norfolk. Sleeping four guests and welcoming one canine companion with open paws, the luxurious, two-bedroom cottage comes with access to a shared indoor swimming pool. It is 9 miles from historic Norwich, with its castle, cathedral, art galleries and museums. There is also an abundance of shopping areas within the city. Venture 3.5 miles to Brundall to hire a cruiser to explore the Broads or 16 miles to the beach at Winterton, where you can sometimes spot grey seals. Find a plethora of family attractions in the area, including the woodland theme park of Bewilderwood, 8 miles away.

Make your way into this 21st-century retreat to find yourselves in a light-filled kitchen/diner, where bi-folding doors can be pulled right back on summer days to bring the outside right in. Discover you have everything in here to help you whip up delicious meals with the fresh Norfolk produce you have sourced; there’s a double oven with microwave, plus an induction hob, integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Set the table in the room to sit down to meals together or step out into the fresh air to dine outside. Discover an adjoining utility room with a washing machine and dryer, plus a back door to the garden. Head through to the lounge afterwards to open the bi-folding doors in here too and perhaps find a film to enjoy together on the Smart TV. There is also a shower room, with a large walk-in shower and WC downstairs. Wander upstairs at the end of each exciting day to lay your head in either the comfortable king-size bedroom or gorgeous twin, each with a TV. There’s also a family bathroom with shower over the bath and a WC.

Relax out in the garden, which is not enclosed, whenever the weather permits. Fire up the BBQ and cook supper out in the fresh air. Take a scenic walk beside the lake or through the woods, supervising children and your dog at all times. There is no fishing, swimming or boating in the lake but guests to this cottage do have a private picnic area. Parking for two cars comes with the property.

This property is a gem. The location is lovely, the cottage is very well equipped and was spotless when we arrived. We felt very relaxed. The owners are friendly and on hand if needed. They are not intrusive though. Perfect. The added bonus is the lovely swimming pool.

We took our 13 month old and 3 year old dachshund for a week in Peaty cottage. It couldn't have been a better holiday. The property is beautiful, well decorated, clean and well laid out. The kitchen is well stocked which was helpful for us when cooking for ourselves and baby as we couldn't always eat out with nap times. The cottage is reallRead morey well laid out for babies, we asked for the highchair and travel cot even though sometimes they're not great. Despite being a bit worried about it, the travel cot was better quality than ours and the high chair great. There wasn't a huge amount of ornaments or anything for toddlers to break, ours was mostly into the coasters. Outside is a little risky with a walking toddler, but it is absolutely stunning. Gorgeous scenery and a little gardeny bit at the back. Honestly if you're happy just running about after your little one there's no reason not to enjoy outside. Beware of goose poo though, we learned the hard way! The hosts were great, introduced herself and asked if we needed anything but weren't intrusive and we felt like we had privacy and peace whilst we were there. Totally dog friendly - even a lead in the cupboard - but again, with the garden not being enclosed it would depend on your dog. We have a needy dachshund so he doesn't stray far and doesn't like water (if you've a spaniel I'd be careful of the lake!!) It's well situated for days out, beach trips, national trust things etc. We used the pool on a rainy day which was great - they're doing some work on the loo/changing area but it's so close to the house so this wasn't an issue. All in all I couldn't rate our stay highly enough. Written this super long review for other parents/dog owners because it can be hard to find suitable places... This is it. Clean, spacious, bright and airy, with extra nice touches on arrival. Absolutely perfect! Hide

We booked a last minute break and have really enjoyed our time at the cottage. Its such a calm, quiet and relaxing place. The cottage is immaculate and we have loved the little gestures of wine, milk and blueberry cake. The children loved the lake, the pool and most of all trinny the dog. We will be back again soon.

One of the best properties we have ever stayed in. Didnt need to leave cottage at all if we didnt want to. Immaculately clean, very comfortable. Loved walking around the lake each day and sitting in the garden - watching the ducks and geese turn up each day.. We will defiantly be returning.
