Priory Cottage in Beeston Regis
Beeston Regis, Sheringham, Norfolk
Description
"A hidden gem in a quiet location but walking distance to the town and beaches of Sheringham"
Priory Cottage is a single-storey building, originally part of the historic Abbey Farm's stable complex.
The entrance leads into a hallway with hooks for coats and plenty of room for shoes and wellies.
From the hall, to the right, is the well equipped kitchen-diner with scrubbed table and chairs, electric cooker, microwave oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. An iron and ironing board are stowed in the cupboard.
Further along the hall is the light and spacious living room with French doors leading onto the east and south facing patio, well situated for morning coffee and evening aperitif.
A cosy gas stove offers additional warmth in the winter months.
Left from the hall are the bedrooms and bathroom/lavatory.
The twin room houses two painted single beds, each having a bedside cabinet, and has a built-in wardrobe.
The master bedroom, with its painted kingsize bed and Hypnos mattress, is comfortable and bright. It has a built-in wardrobe, bedside cabinets on either side of the bed and a dressing table.
The single room is found down a step through the original brick and flint archway, and has the interesting feature of old wooden tack posts protruding from one wall. This cosy little room has ample space for its single painted bed, dressing table and wooden clothes valet.
Also on this "level" are the separate loo/hand basin and the bathroom. The bathroom has a sloping roof but has been well planned and space is utilised perfectly. A superior Aqualisa shower rises at the head of the enamel bath, and there is a traditional heated towel rail/radiator for warmth and drying those thick snuggly premium towels, as well as a heated mirror (no mist!) above the basin.
All bed linen is 100% cotton, with pure new wool duvets (cool in the summer heat and warm in the winter chill).
The cottage benefits from gas central heating, constant hot water, smart television (with Freeview), free Wi-Fi broadband access and has a stock of various board games..
Sleeping Arrangements
1 kingsize double, 1 twin and 1 single.
