The Old Smithy still has the original sign over the door and whilst packed with period features, has been stylishly renovated to create a light, airy and comfortable cottage. Ideal for 2 to 3 guests with a lovely open plan living area, a large wood burner, two double bedrooms upstairs, both with a bathroom and a downstairs shower room. Located in the picturesque village of Great Walsingham, The Smithy is the ideal place to relax & unwind. With the a stunning beach only 5 miles away, the cottage is a perfect base to explore all the lovely places North Norfolk has to offer.
Inside you will find:
A good size entrance hall will plenty of space for hanging coats/storing boots etc.
The open plan living space, is both cosy and sociable, with defined spaces for sitting, dining and kitchen. This charming room retains beautiful features like solid board flooring an exposed brick wall and original Crittal windows with shutters. This is a wonderful space to relax, curled up in front of the wood burning stove in the cooler months, with a book or watching the smart TV and to enjoy a tasty meal, seated at the dining table, that has been prepared in the well equipped kitchen. There is also a small utility room with washing machine & dryer.
There are three bathrooms in the cottage, one for each bedroom and a shower room downstairs.
Heading upstairs:
From the hallway is the staircase leading to the two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, due to the age and nature of the building, all these rooms have restricted height in places.
The first and smallest of the two bedrooms has a rather unusual - but handy - layout. There are two doors to this room, allowing access to either side of the bed, which is tucked under the eaves (this means that the end of the bed is at the wall, so if you are very tall, this is not the bed for you!). On both sides of the bed is a dressing space with a window, so this is a lovely light room. The bathroom for this bedroom is opposite and has a bath with and held shower attachment, WC and wash hand basin.
The second bedroom is a good size again with restricted height in places, with a double bed. There are good storage and hanging spaces provided in the fitted wardrobes. The third bathroom is off this bedroom with free standing bath, hand held shower attachment, WC and wash hand basin.
Quality linen & towels are provided.
Outside
There is parking for 1 car outside the cottage.
Although there is no garden, directly outside the front door is an area with a bench so you can sit outside. Should you wish to park on the green then there are further chairs and a table that can also be used at the front to enjoy a glass of wine while taking in the view down to the village green.
