Open plan living space.

Dining area.

Enclosed front garden with patio, barbecue and garden furniture. Private parking for 1 car. Bike store. No smoking.. Sitting pretty in the North Norfolk village of Trunch and close to both the stunning coastline and the beautiful Broads, the Maltings really is quite the find. Don’t be fooled by the fact that this property sleeps just two. It is very spacious light and airy and has been decorated and curated to a very high standard to offer stylish luxury accommodation for couples seeking a truly gorgeous getaway. The owners are happy for an older child to join their parents in this lovely holiday home and have thoughtfully added a good quality sofa bed to the property to accommodate this.
Formally the grain store it is attached the 200-year-old Brewery House and has bags of personality and offers charm in spades. And it has quite the pedigree too as it was previously voted one of the top 30 cosiest cottages in England, making this a must-book property! Here you will find a relaxing living room with a wonderful wood burner to snuggle up in front of, maybe with a great book or perhaps while you catch up on some boxset viewing in front of the Smart TV. Also on the ground floor you will find a contemporary, well equipped kitchen and a bathroom with twin basin units and a luxurious, deep feature bath with a rainfall shower above.
On the open-plan first floor you’ll discover a high-quality kingsize bed, which feels so spacious because of the exposed beams and vaulted ceiling and is perfect for long lie-ins. There is also a small bistro seating area at the front of the property, great for both a morning coffee and an evening sundowner. The beach is just 5 minutes away- head to Mundesley for its wide sandy beach and then take the pretty coast road, winding your way through Norfolk stone villages until you reach Cromer where you will find a host of great places to shop, eat and drink along with that famous pier. Two award-winning gastro pubs are within a ten-minute drive.
Head West a little further and take a seasonal boat trip to see the seals or do some crab-lining on Blakeney Quay.
Check out the Thursford Collection with its Christmas Spectacular or potter around the Georgian Town of Holt with its unique high street. You can also be in the heart of the Broads in around 25 minutes where you can charter a day launch or join a tour and make like Swallows and Amazons as you drift along these much-celebrated waterways. There are lots of great places to eat locally too, which is just as well as you will be sure to have worked up an appetite with all the sightseeing.

We loved our stay at The Maltings. The arrival treats were really kind and the cottage was clean and well equipped. The area was so peaceful and the people we met very friendly. We would highly recommend this cottage and hope to return.

The most beautiful little cottage with everything you could need and more. We stayed 10th-17th January and were greeted with the most amazing welcome pack and the cosiest of surroundings, warm, welcoming and peaceful. Beautiful beaches and countryside close by and a good base to explore what Norfolk has to offer further afield. Thank you for a lovely stay. Definitely recommend The Maltings.

We had a lovely time at The Maltings.
We had a lovely time at The Maltings. Such a cozy and comfortable cottage. With everything you could need. Dan and Sharron were great hosts and left the best welcome pack ever, it even included treats for our dog. There was so much to see and do around Trunch, and we only scratched the surface. We would love to go back. It was the most peaceful and relaxing location to return to each day. For once we feel fully rested after a week away. Just gorgeous. Thank you 😊

We have just returned from a week staying at the Maltings.
We have just returned from a week staying at the Maltings. The cottage is comfortable and has everything u need. The cottage is in a quiet location tucked away from the main road. There are lots of places to visit amazing fish and chips at Dave's in Sheringham or Mary Jane’s in Cromer, which is about 8 miles away. Also recommend The Gunton arms for a meal ,which is set in a deer park and worth a visit with fantastic food. Fulbrigg hall is also not far away which is NTrust . We will definitely return.
