The modest village of Wiveton holds various events throughout the year, creating great community spirit to enjoy. One staple afternoon would be the Jazz on the Green, where the family event sees many enjoy Pimms to the sound of toe tapping music, all underneath the stunning backdrop of St Mary‘s Church.

Being almost exactly one mile from the top of Blakeney‘s high street, Wiveton is not only popular for its severe lack of noise and light pollution making it a favourite for astronomers and bird watcher alike but also its easy and gorgeous walk to the coastline.

It is with a very heavy heart that the current owners have decided to pass the reins onto new custodians who will surely love and enjoy everything this brilliant cottage has to offer. There is capacity to take this holiday cottage as a going concern, but nonetheless the white goods and Rangecooker will remain to help the next owners get up and running here immediately.

With exposed walls, wood panelling and an abundance of Norfolk flint work, this utterly beautiful cottage is bursting with character. Its large and bright kitchen dining room offers a fantastic contrast to the cosier living room.

From here, access to the private patio via double doors really indulges you into the nature and tranquillity of this brilliant village.

There are plenty of options for car parking, immediately outside Clare Cottage, but should you require further space, there is a large village car park just opposite The Wiveton Bell.
