About this house rental
Located on the edge of the much sought-after picturesque rural village of Great Massingham, The Cart Lodge is in the most beautiful of settings, positioned on the Peddars Way, and set in four and a half acres of private grounds, complete with resident alpacas. Within close proximity of the excellent village pub, this hideaway is ideally located for exploring rural and coastal Norfolk. Dog owners will enjoy the fully enclosed exercise paddock, and you can bring your own bikes..
Situated in rural farmland, the surrounding grounds are a true delight. The Cart Lodge offers contemporary and charming accommodation for up to four guests. With high ceilings featuring exposed trusses, the open-plan living environment comprises of a kitchen and sitting room with underfloor heating. This space benefits from ample natural light pouring through the large windows. The charming, well-equipped kitchen area provides everything that guests need to cater at home, with conversation and meals shared at the traditional farmhouse dining table. Comfortable sofas are offered in the sitting area, with french doors accessing the lawned quad courtyard beyond. To the rear of the property, the master bedroom has a Norfolk-made wrought iron king-size bed, with twin single beds offered in bedroom two. These rooms are served by a good sized family bathroom featuring bath with shower over. Outside, there is a shared lawned quad courtyard where guests can relax and enjoy a barbecue al fresco. There is private parking for two cars available. Dogs are very welcome at The Cart Lodge, and guests have access to the fully enclosed exercise paddock.

Despite arriving at the Cart Lodge the day after storm Eunice we quickly settled into a week of relaxation at an excellent location. Gill & David made us very welcome & we appreciated the lemon drizzle cake which was yummy. The Cart Lodge was very comfortable, dog friendly ( e.g. the enclosure to let dogs run around safely) & we especially enjoyed the under floor heating. Thanks too for arranging for us to meet the four Alpacas during our stay. Overall a wonderful week at the Cart Lodge, highly recommended.

We absolutely loved our stay in the Cart Lodge with our two dogs. The property was perfect for us, very comfortable, cosy but plenty of space, immaculately clean & we had everything we needed (loved the underfloor heating throughout!!). There was an enclosed paddock for our dogs to run around in and plenty of walks on the doorstep. We went to a dog friendly beach which was around 20 minutes drive away, it was only dog walkers on there and was perfect to let them off for a run. We can’t wait to come back for another stay!

Accommodation so comfortable and stylish. Lovely quiet location with handy dog exercise paddock and walks straight from the door to quaint Great Massingham which is a gorgeous village with duck ponds and a lovely pub. Handy drive to the coast . Owners so friendly and helpful. Came round with torches when we had a brief power cut in a storm. Lovely touches when we arrived, fresh flowers and a home made cake. Property beautifully clean and well equipped, with helpful literature and walks. Could not fault our stay.

A lovely cottage, set just on the outskirts of a quiet villiage. The cottage is very comfortable and has everything you need. Very
High standards through out the cottage.
The owners are very friendly and helpful.
A perfect place to go walking or just relax sitting outside the cottage. Where you will find a table, two chairs and a parasol.
The experience of walking the alpacas was great. I will definitely stay there again.
