Lovely cottage with everything you’d need, great location as a base to explore the Norfolk coast. Same as all the other reviews parking is a test especially with a larger car because of the arch so requires confidence.We would definitely return if we were to visit the area again.

Lovely comfortable cottage with everything needed for the stay. Clean tidy and beautiful, quiet location and perfect for exploring the area. Turning into parking area at back is very tight through the archway but fine once through. Kitchen tap had persistent drip and outside light didnt work but that being said would not hesitate to stay here again.
