Superb accommodation for up to 8 adults yet still cosy enough for just a couple. 4 bedrooms and 3 reception rooms and kitchen-diner. It's a quintessentially English country cottage with all the mod cons and some nice surprises. Renovated a few years back in keeping with the original design and character, featuring oak beams throughout. Fast broadband WiFi. Two Smart TVs. CD/video player + dozens of DVDs and novels to keep you entertained. Central heating throughout, with radiators each having their own thermostats in every room, and wood burning stove in the lounge. Layout Enter into the kitchen with an linked dining area and big farmhouse table. Off the hall way is a Family bathroom and two downstairs bedrooms one with a en-Suit. Three connected reception rooms. The main sitting room has windows and glass doors to 3 sides. The lovely oak beams, brick fireplace and soft lighting all give it that real English cottage ambiance. Between the main lounge and sun room is the second reception room which is a good play area for Children, or a quiet place to go perhaps if you need to work a while. The sun room at the west end of the cottage also has windows and glass doors on 3 sides with panoramic views over the grounds and to the fields beyond. You might be amazed what goes by if you keep a watchful eye; an otter deer and stoat have been seen recently. Upstairs are two large bedrooms one double and one twin at opposite ends of the house, both with dual aspect windows and country views. Shower room with WC. Outside is a large enclosed games barn, having its own wood stove with seating. Sleeping Arrangements There are two large bedrooms upstairs, one double and one twin room. Two Smaller double bedrooms downstairs one with en-suite WC wash basin and rainfall shower. Exterior Delightful country cottage tucked away in its own 2 acres, quietly located in the middle of a 200 acre grassland farm. Just the place to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the Broads National Park a peaceful retreat next to nature. By the back entrance there is a decked area with outdoor seating and a large hot tub. Tucked away in the garden is the summer house, The Haven, with views of the large level lawn. If you need it there's a dog kennel and run. The River Waveney (300 yards away) runs past the farm and is navigable for yachts and cruisers from the Broads to here, and we have some mooring points on the edge of the meadows our side. Canoes can also use the upper reaches of the river from the bridge at Geldeston Lock towards Ellingham Mill where motorboats don't The River Waveney (300 yards away) runs past the farm and is navigable for yachts and cruisers from the Broads to here, and we have some mooring points on the edge of the meadows our side. Canoes can also use the upper reaches of the river from the bridge at Geldeston Lock towards Ellingham Mill where motorboats can’t reach. Over half a mile of private fishing on our estate is available to our guests. Bring your tackle for the chance to catch pike, roach, chub and bream. For walkers the Angles Way happens to cross the farm. It's a 93 mile trail which has been sometimes voted the best waterside walk in Britain. Another popular idea is a fifteen minute level walk across the fields and footbridge to The Locks Inn Community pub at Geldeston which one of the most unique pubs you'll have ever found with a very interesting history. It is so remote it doesn't get mains electricity! Local Area Convenient for the picturesque market towns of Beccles and Bungay for shops and eateries, the Norfolk Broads and the coast. Farm shop 1/2 mile Beccles 3 miles Bungay 3 miles Southwold 17 miles Snape Maltings & Aldeburgh 20/25 miles Norwich 18 miles Getting there Locks Lane is not signed off the main road in Shipmeadow, however you will see signs for Nunnery Farm and firewood. Follow the Lane past the two Farm entrances, continue past a field, then bear left onto a track. Then on your right is a wooden gate to Locks Lane Cottage. Parking is around the back, near to the back door. Accessibility Unsuitable for severely Disabled with steps up to the Cottage. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Food and drink - Coffee/tea maker - Dishwasher - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Games - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Boat - Kayak - Fishing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,938 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114100000/114090400/114090339/cbb38359.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mallard Beccles - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Parking included [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=114090339&PinnedHotelID=114090339&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112470000/112465100/112465098/aadcfd4a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Large Victorian family home, hot tub, 5 min walk to beach, pets, sleeps 11, BBQ Gorleston-on-Sea - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=112465098&PinnedHotelID=112465098&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91650000/91644000/91643968/8e0682ec.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### New!
