Six on The Green

A period cottage facing the village green, ten minutes from Sandringham.

Look round
The cottage

Old stone, high ceilings, and a green to wake up to

Six on The Green is a two-bedroom period cottage on the old part of North Wootton's village green — a handful of houses, the former schoolhouse, the church, and a lot of sky.

Downstairs there's a sitting room with unusually high ceilings, a period fireplace and a wood burner, and a kitchen breakfast room that opens onto an enclosed garden. There's a cloakroom off the rear hall. Upstairs, the principal bedroom sits above the sitting room and looks straight out across the green; there's a twin room alongside it and the family bathroom between.

The house is understood to have once formed part of the Castle Rising Estate, and is thought to have been the original manor house before it was divided into two cottages. Castle Rising itself, with its enormous Norman keep, is a mile and a half up the road.

It's four minutes' walk to a pub and a shop, ten minutes in the car to Sandringham, and under half an hour to the beach at Hunstanton. King's Lynn station is four miles away, and King's Cross an hour and forty minutes from there.

Room by room

What's where

Sitting room

High ceilings, a period fireplace and a wood burner, with logs provided from October to March. A smart TV, and enough room to spread out with the papers on a wet afternoon.

Kitchen breakfast room

Generously equipped and set up for people who actually want to cook — dishwasher, decent pans, proper knives. Room to eat in here, or carry it out to the garden.

Bedrooms

The principal bedroom sits above the sitting room at the front, with a super king bed and a view over the green. The second is a twin. Four in total, comfortably — two adults and two children, or two couples who don't mind sharing a bathroom.

Bathrooms

A family bathroom upstairs between the two bedrooms, and a WC on the ground floor — which you'll appreciate after a muddy walk, and so will the dog.

Garden

Fully enclosed and laid to lawn, with a barbecue and somewhere to sit out. Enclosed matters if you have dogs: no lead needed at seven in the morning.

How booking works

  1. Send us your dates. It takes a minute and costs nothing.
  2. We confirm availability and the exact total, normally within a few hours.
  3. A 25% deposit secures the dates, plus a £150 refundable damage deposit. The balance is due six weeks before you arrive.
  4. Book inside six weeks and it's simply paid in full.
  5. Directions, the door code and our list of local favourites arrive the week before.
Book direct

Always 10% cheaper here than on the booking sites

You'll find us on Airbnb too, and we're glad if that's how you found us. But the booking sites take their cut of every stay, and it's built into the price you see there. Come to us directly and that comes off instead.

10%

Off the rate you'll pay anywhere else. Not a promotion — it's how we price.

£0

Booking fees, service fees, cleaning fees. The price we quote is the price you pay.

24 hrs

To reply, at most. You're emailing the people whose house it is, not a call centre.

Stayed before? Get in touch — returning guests get another 10% off.

The area

What's on the doorstep

North Wootton is in Domesday as Wdetuna, the settlement near the woods. It still has woods, a green, a church, a pub and a shop — and the marshes run west from the village all the way to The Wash.

Our favourites

Where we'd send you

There's a longer version of this in a folder in the kitchen, but here's the short one.

Sunday lunch

The Black Horse, Castle Rising

A mile and three quarters away, next to the castle this cottage is said to have belonged to. Aged steaks, fresh fish, and a roast on Sundays worth booking ahead for.

The big one

Snettisham on a rising tide

Time it right and tens of thousands of wading birds lift off The Wash at once. Check the tide tables before you go — it only works on the big ones.

Walk from the door

Ling Common and the marsh

Woodland one way, big skies and saltmarsh the other. Both start at the end of the lane, and neither needs the car.

Us

Who you're booking with

Six on The Green is let directly by us. We're not an agency and we don't have a portfolio — there's one cottage, and it's this one. If something isn't right while you're here, you can ring us and we'll come round.

Good to know

The practical bits

Arrival & departure
Arrive any time from 4pm, and leave by 10am. Further details will be provided upon booking.
Dogs
Two dogs are welcome, at £20 each per stay. The garden is fully enclosed and there's a doggy shower outside for muddy returns. We ask that dogs stay off sofas and stay downstairs.
Payment & cancellation
A 25% deposit confirms the booking, together with a £150 refundable damage deposit which is returned within seven days of your departure. The balance is due six weeks before arrival. If you book inside six weeks, the full amount is payable at the time of booking. Cancel more than eight weeks ahead and we'll refund everything.
Accessibility
There's one step up to the front door, and a WC on the ground floor. Both bedrooms and the bathroom are upstairs, and the staircase is a period one. Do ask if you'd like measurements or photographs of anything specific before you book — we'd far rather tell you now than have you arrive to a surprise.
Getting here
About two hours from north London by car. By train, King's Cross to King's Lynn takes an hour and forty minutes, and the cottage is four miles from the station — ten minutes in a taxi. Once you're here you don't strictly need a car: the pub, the shop, the church and the woods are all on foot, and there's a bike you're welcome to borrow. Two off-road parking spaces if you do drive. We send full directions, including a what3words pin for the front door, the week before you arrive.
