    We have had the most enjoyable and relaxing stay - the house is so warm and has the most lovely vibe. A very happy week.

  • A & P

    Lovely house in a great location. The house is very well equipped and spacious, and a pleasure to come back to in the evening. Great walks at Blakeney and Burnham Overy Staithe. Very good meals at The Lighthouse, The Jolly Sailors and The Orange Tree, and a lovely coffee stop at The White Horse in Holme-next-the-Sea (also has a wonderful bakery). Great holiday, thank you.
