The quiet rural mid Norfolk village of Thuxton is set between two market towns, Dereham and Wymondham, both offering good shopping facilities and traditional weekly markets. Thuxton village is fortunate to have its original pretty railway station, now a private residence, which is part of the Mid Norfolk Railway, an 11 mile restored train line from Dereham to Wymondham. Undergoing restoration is a further 6 miles of line to County School, home to a visitors centre and the well-known former Watts Navel School. A great day out can be enjoyed at nearby Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse, a fascinating journey through time and rural Norfolk life. Just outside the market town of Fakenham you can visit Pensthorpe, home of BBC Springwatch, or visit one of the coastal RSPB sites. Spend a day visiting the city of Norwich, or just relaxing on the Norfolk broads, and don't forget to visit Norfolk's beautiful and varied coastline. There is so much to do around this part of East Anglia.
In a narrow country lane next to Thuxton village church is this delightful mid terraced former railwayman's cottage. This well equipped Thuxton cottage retains some original features, including a generous lounge with ceiling beams and an open fire. The attractive kitchen with dining area looks out over the fully enclosed garden with furniture, suitable for dining or simply relaxing. Pet lovers may be pleased to take advantage of the 2 dog kennels available in the large garden shed next to this Thuxton cottage. The village is surrounded by quiet country roads leading to the local market towns of Dereham and Wymondham, both offering good shopping facilities and interesting attractions. Within easy travelling distance from this Thuxton cottage is the city of Norwich with excellent shopping, 2 cathedrals, a castle and museums. The varied coastline near to this Thuxton cottage can offer you either a relaxing or a fun-filled day by the sea. Then, return to this charming Thuxton cottage to unwind by the open fire.

Previous visitors' comments about 5 Church Cottages:
The cottage was very comfortable and homely. We had a lovely week.
Mr Birnie, Oxford, February 2012
The location was just as we'd expected and the quality of the accommodation was to a very high standard. Very clean, comfortable, spacious and easy enough parking. We'd be happy to come again.
Mr White, Cambridge, October 2011
We wanted a quiet holiday in a nice country cottage where our two dogs would be accepted and this ticked all the boxes. The cottage was very comfortable, warm and well equipped with quite modern appliances and equipment, yet lost nothing of its charm because of that.
Mr Smith, Chelmsford, September 2011
5 Church Cottages had everything that was required, set in an idyllic place and close to places we wanted to visit.
