The Stables, Great Walsingham

The Stables is a charming 2 bedroom cottage snuggled in the tranquil village of Great Walsingham. This single storey traditional flint cottage is immaculately presented with a contemporary finish. The property has private parking facilities and is just one mile from Little Walsingham and five miles from the famous sublime North Norfolk Coast.
Great Walsingham quieter and more rural that its nearest neighbour, Little Walsingham. Despite its name this small conservation village sits in the vale of the River Stiffkey amongst a scattering of country cottages, farmhouses and timber framed buildings including 16th century Berry Hall where it is said that Henry V111 first met Anne Boleyn. A very short walk from The Stables are the Great Walsingham Barns, which houses a popular cafe and other well established craft based businesses.
Little Walsingham, a medieval village, is a centre of pilgrimage with two Roman Catholic Shrines. The village is also renowned for the 20-acre Walsingham Abbey ground containing the ruins of the Augustinian Priory dating back to 1153.
Little Walsingham supports an amazing number of shops mainly tourist/pilgrim shops but also an award winning farm shop, antique shops, tea shops and two public houses.
The Wells and Walsingham Light Railway links Little Walsingham to the coastal town of Wells-next-the sea, some five miles away.
The Stables is perfectly located for you to explore North Norfolk, it's stately homes, stunning wildlife and glorious beaches.

Walsingham trip
The Stables is an excellently furnished and spotlessly clean cottage. Comfortable furnishing. Peaceful environment. We were attending the annual South Wales Pilgrimage to the Anglican Shrine in Little Walsingham and it proved a good base. Would recommend this cottage.

Ideal property for a short break
The accommodation was very nice. Car Parking well organised. Helpful notes in the property for guidance on location & instructions on items in the property. Sadly the cleaning needed to be much better. The oven was (& still is) dirty with baked on grease on shelving. Not conducive to us using it with enthusiasm! The heating was efficient but automatically switched off at 11pm until approx 7am. No heating at all in those hours. So with zero temperatures outside was wrong. We were cold. The gutter exactly above the front door needs repair as it is dripping water continually.

Excellent communication from initial enquiry right through to entry details several days ahead of our stay. Accommodation was very clean, comfortable and well equipped, a real home from home. Being all on one floor proved convenient with children. Perfect, will definitely return for another stay in the future..!

Wonderful cottage in the perfect location.
We loved everything about this cottage. It was just so relaxing, peaceful, secure and exceptionally clean. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen/dining area was a delight. Great central location for exploring all areas and then relaxing back in this home from home. Excellent safe parking also. Will be returning to the Stables, for sure.

Perfect North Norfolk Retreat
The property has been redeveloped to a high standard and the furnishings are modern yet homely. The location was perfect as a base for day trips to all the North Norfolk sights along the coast. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to friends and family.
