Lovely spacious comfortable house with small garden in quiet rural Norfolk village opposite lovely, welcoming village pub. Covid 19 cleaning regime. self check in and social distancing respected.

Cots and high chairs available.

Four bedrooms. Bedroom 1 with 4 poster bed and ensuite, Bedroom 2 with double and single bed, bedroom 3 with double bed, bedroom four with 2 singles and 2 good quality futons. Additional folding bed and child's foam bed also available.

The name of our house is confusing as it implies it was the home of the village school teacher. As far as we know it never was. It was built in 1844 as a Wesleyan Chapel. The design is typical of early Norfolk non conformist chapel architecture. In 1851 there was a religious census made (the only time this has ever happened). It records that an average of 70 people attended services at this chapel and records that on Sunday 30th March 1851 52 people attended the morning service and 46 in the afternoon including 12 Sunday scholars. In the 1880s the congregation became more numerous and affluent and then built the more traditionally designed Chapel which still stands next door.

This building was used was then used as a Sunday school and chapel rooms. Older residents of the village remember going to the Chapel services and the Sunday school and have happy memories of the Sunday school outings to Hunstanton. (The really canny ones used to go on the church treats too!).

Now a very comfortable house with large lounge with log burner, 4 good sized bedrooms. will accommodate 8 adults with ease with 2 older children/ teenagers and younger children including babies.

Bathroom facilities include: Ensuite to main bedroom with shower,hand basin and loo. Main family bathroom has roll top bath with handheld shower, handbasin and loo .There is a third loo downstairs .

Well behaved pets welcome. Lovely dog walks. Pub welcomes children and dogs(not compulsory!,).

There is room for double airbed in the lounge to give extra flexibility to the sleeping arrangements
