About this house rental

Located in the rural village of Warham, The Old School House is a simply beautiful conversion of a Victorian school. Enjoying a peaceful village location with wonderful open views across farmland, this hideaway boasts a heated outdoor pool, available from May to end of September, plus a piano, and is situated within a very short drive of the coast. Just perfect!

Of Norfolk flint construction, and with pale grey Georgian Crittall windows, The Old School House is as pretty as a picture. Once through the entrance door of the old boy's porch you will soon realise that the beauty continues within. There's no worry of feeling you are back at school. Far from it! The interiors are stylishly laid back, oh so comfortable, and designed with great flair. You will find divine fabrics, warm coloured walls and an eclectic mix of antique finds and painted French style furniture throughout, which cleverly allows all the rooms to flow seamlessly into one another. Artworks, modern and not-so-modern, adorn the walls, adding interest and colour to every room, whether it's the adorable children's bedroom with its hand-painted mural or the seriously grown-up superb master suite.

With three beautiful reception rooms you are really spoilt for choice. A stunning full-height sitting room with galleried landing has sumptuous sofas to sink into along with a wood burning stove to light on chilly days. There's also a second cosy sitting room with an open fire where you can settle down to watch television or maybe enjoy listening to the piano in the adjoining hallway (though you do need someone who can play - and well, ideally!). Finally, a lovely light-filled vaulted wooden dining conservatory has double doors leading out into the garden - just the spot for a long lunch on warm spring or summer days. The spacious kitchen is well-equipped and runs through to a dining area - a sociable, lazy Sunday brunch springs to mind.

With an en-suite double bedroom on the ground floor, three further bedrooms on the first floor (double, children's twin and super-king master) and two bathrooms (one is en-suite), this lovely detached house will appeal to families, friends and couples. Indeed anyone who enjoys peace, luxury, comfort and space. And, don't forget, a swimming pool too!

There is so much to keep you entertained at The Old School House, that you may very well want to stay put for your entire holiday, however, should you be keen explore this lovely part of North Norfolk, you will find plenty of things to do to suit everyone.

A lovely property, very well maintained with plenty of character. My wife and I had the best of both worlds, some time on our own before family joined us for a long weekend. We have recommended this property to all our friends and will hope to be back next year.

Absolutely stunning

What a beautiful end to the summer holidays for my daughters 9th birthday. This house is truly lovely, inside and out. It was fully equipped with everything you would need from children’s cutlery to board games for all the family to enjoy. One thing which I hadn’t noticed in the write up, it only has one television in the property. We would love to visit again. The children fully enjoyed hours and hours of fun in the heated swimming pool, thank goodness it was.... our visit was in August too. The decor, furniture and furnishings was very luxurious. The master suite was huge along with a master super king bed.

Country Cottage
Country Cottage
The property is big and spacious with enough living rooms that a large group could separate from each other to get their own space. It is a country cottage, however, and as such you should expect some "country cottage clutter". As someone who suffers with allergies I did have some issues with all the feathers. It seemed that if it could be stuffed with feathers it was. The cottage itself was clean enough but there were some maintenance issues such as a continuously flowing downstairs tap and broken blind but these are easily sorted. It was our first time in staying in a house that seemed to be someones home rather than a purely rental property which gave the property a very different feeling. To be honest I'm not sure that I liked it but that is just personal preference. There is wi-fi but it is pretty patchy and we didn't have any mobile coverage but then again you are in the middle of the Norfolk countryside. The pool is great for splashing around in but note that there are no sun loungers to sit beside the pool which is a shame. If you are looking for the cozy (cluttered) country cottage experience then this will be just what you are looking for but if you are looking for clean modern lines then perhaps look elsewhere.
