Fo'c'sle, Wiveton, Norfolk

Fo'c'sle is a delightful detached timber clad retreat, located in the heart of the North Norfolk countryside just a short drive to the coast and one of North Norfolk's best restaurants, the Wiveton Bell, making it ideal for couples to both relax and explore this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Fo'c'sle, (pronounced Folk-sall), is an old fashioned word for forward castle, the part of a ship with the sailors' living quarters. Set in the heart of the Glaven valley, you don't have to worry about the sea conditions to enjoy this peaceful hideaway!.

Attractively furnished with many of the finishing touches coming from the local potttery/gallery "Made in Cley", the open-plan ground floor offers a well-equipped compact kitchen, a bright kitchen/dining area with double doors opening into the private courtyard and a cosy sitting room with wood burning stove.

On the first floor you are greeted with a large bedroom with picture window providing lovely views over the church and valley and a comfy king-size bed and en-suite shower room.

The cottage is looked after by the owners who live next door, who can give great tips on what to do and where to go in the local area.

Nestled between the coastal villages of Blakeney and Cley-next-the-Sea, Wiveton is an ideal location to enjoy the beauty of the Glaven valley with its wildlife, birdlife and walking opportunities, whilst being located just one mile south of the coast road. There is an excellent bus service operating along the A149 coast road, the 'Coasthopper' which is great for walkers in that the bus route shadows the Norfolk coast path. This enables one way walks to be undertaken with relative ease and is a great way of visiting the coastal villages without the need to use your car. The Wiveton Downs is a registered "Dark Skies" site where it is possible to see the northern lights, or aurora borealis, and this area of the UK boasts some of the darkest skies in the country being that it is unaffected by light pollution and so making it ideal for star gazing.

Cosy and compact
This property was ideal for a couple quiet relaxing break. The property has a little sitting area outside which is secluded with only the property owner or postman walking past. It was lovely and clean.

Small but perfectly formed home from home
A super friendly and welcoming host and cottage in this fabulous part of the world. It would have been useful to know grounds aren’t enclosed for the purpose of our dogs needing to be monitored and not venturing onto the road but that didn’t detract from the fabulous experience of staying here
