No. 2 Badger Sett-UK443072 bedrooms, Sleeps 6 + 1 Baby.

If a quiet Norfolk base with a little indulgence sounds right, this 2-bedroom cottage near Dereham makes an easy choice for couples, a small family or friends, with space to sleep 6 thanks to the double sofa bed in the living room.

A kingsize room and a twin are upstairs, and families with young children are well provided for with a cot, highchair and stairgate available.

What sets this stay apart is the sense of calm: part of a small cluster of holiday homes in a rural spot known as "Middle of Nowhere", yet still well placed for walks and cycling from the doorstep.

Dog owners are especially well catered for too, with 2 small dogs welcome and extra treats for them on arrival.
