About this house rental

Waterside is a beautifully sweet, flint fronted detached bungalow, set in a glorious private garden in the rural location of Wiveton. Within easy walking distance of the two popular coastal villages of Cley-next-the-Sea and Blakeney, the North Norfolk coastal path, and an award-winning gastro pub, this hideaway is wonderfully dog friendly too.

As soon as you walk into the front door of Waterside you will realise you have made the perfect choice for your holiday. The bungalow is all on one level (although there are steps within the garden) and evokes the feeling of your very own private, welcoming and peaceful country house hotel. Decorated and furnished in a relaxing and sophisticated, low key style, the sociable living areas are spacious, and the four inviting bedrooms (one king, two super-king/twin and a twin) all come dressed in top quality bed linen and have seriously comfortable mattresses. The sitting room is a lovely light-filled room with windows to two sides, french doors to the front garden and a wood burning stove to light on chillier days. The open-plan L-shaped dining kitchen has a very well-equipped kitchen at one end, with full length windows and door leading out to the patio and garden, and dining area at the other where windows also overlook the rear garden. Half way between the two is a separate utility room with a further door to the patio. Waterside is enclosed by an east-west facing garden. The rear garden is where you will want to spend most of your time. Here you can enjoy an outdoor lunch sat on the large curved patio overlooking the spacious lawned area below.

Wiveton is a pretty hamlet of detached houses and cottages, just a mile south of the main coastal road that runs between Blakeney and Cley-next-the-Sea - both of which are within reasonable walking distance of Waterside. In Cley you will find tea rooms, a couple of galleries, Cley Windmill where you can have a fabulous meal overlooking the marshes, and there's a super delicatessen to tempt your taste buds, which also sells fruit and veg. Blakeney, the bigger village of the two, has shops, galleries, pubs and The Blakeney Hotel (a must for afternoon tea), a small supermarket and a petrol station. So much so, it's now essential to book ahead in the height of summer! The Coasthopper bus services runs regularly along the coast road throughout the year and is a great way of visiting all the other coastal villages without the need to use your car.


Additional Information:
Two well behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge).
Travel cot and high chair available on request. Please bring your own linen for the travel cot.

This was our second stay. We loved the bungalow and surroundings so much that we decided to visit again. In fact we’ve booked to go back in June. The bungalow is very spacious and beautifully decorated throughout. The beds are very comfortable which makes all the difference when you’re away. Very well equipped. Lovely wrap around garden. Just a mile from Cley and Blackney with lovely walks. A bird watchers heaven. Our only suggestion is that there is only one shower. The bigger bathroom has a huge bath and it’s a shame a shower isn’t in the big bathroom as there is plenty of room. Looking forward to visiting again in June.

Second year of staying at Waterside with friends. The house is beautiful and very spacious. Cannot fault anything. We enjoyed the new log burner as it works so well. The local pub/restaurant is our favourite local spot. Many lovely walks around the property, like Cley and Blakeney. Loved exploring Holt too (around 15 minutes drive). We will come back no doubt.

We stayed for Christmas and could not have asked for a better place. Location is great for dog walks, garden and frontage very spacious and peaceful. We saw a muntjac in the garden and lots of pheasants! Lounge and kitchen are great spaces to relax in, plenty of room yet very homely and charming. There is nothing I could fault at all and would love to go back.

Wonderful quiet village location with walks to Blakeney, Cley village and marshes from the door. Mature secluded gardens with goats next door! Very comfy beds and a stunning oval bath. We were toasty in October and barely needed the woodburner. Highly recommended.

A wonderful property and with everything you could wish for at a high standard. Slight issue with drain in garden from kitchen which was overflowing with waste which was quite unpleasant.

8 of us came to Norfolk for a painting holiday and we were not disappointed. I had selected Waterside for its location - near Cley windmill, Burnam Ovary Staithe estuary, Blakeney mudflats and so on as ideal spots to paint. Also a property with accomodation for single residents. The weather was glorious and we produced lots of work. We ate out either at lunchtime or evening and were never disappointed with the local pubs and cafes. When we cooked at home in turns there was everything we could need, always suitable sized pans and dishes for catering for 8. We found only having one shower for all of us quite challenging! (the hand held one over the bath didn't seem to work efficiently|)Also I had asked several times before arrival that the large zip together beds be made into singles and we arrived to find only one of these had been made up that way. Two very good friends volunteered to share the large king sized and we didn't really want to ask housekeeping to come back in late in the afternoon, so we managed. Thank you so much for a delightful, comfortable holiday home. We all loved it.
