Petts Cottage is a traditional two-up, two-down small terraced cottage, located just a minute’s walk from the centre of Norfolk’s loveliest village, Burnham Market. In easy reach of all the shops, pubs and restaurants that make this village so special, and you are well placed for exploring the local area.
This mid-terrace cottage with two bedrooms is a good base for a short break or longer stay. Owned by the same family for many years, it is traditionally furnished with local finds and is suitable for a couple or small family looking for a good location. Enjoy the cosy wood burning stove in the cooler months, or cook up a storm with local produce in the modern well-equipped kitchen. It's so easy to pop to the bakers’ or one of the café’s or deli to buy croissants and coffee for breakfast before enjoying at the cottage and planning your day. On lazy summer days you can enjoy the fully-enclosed courtyard garden, ideal for a spot of sunbathing or dining al fresco. There's a utility room in the outhouse, so beach wear, soggy dogs and the like can easily be dealt with before sinking into the comfy sofas to relax with a film or book.
On arrival, park up outside and if you fancy, explore the coast by bus, foot or cycle. Or enjoy all the walking and history on your doorstep. A walk to Burnham Thorpe, where Admiral Lord Nelson was born, is well worth doing - be sure to sneak in a local ale or lunch at the famous Lord Nelson pub in the village. Walk eastwards to Burnham Overy Staithe to discover the picturesque little harbour, where you can enjoy a spot of crabbing and walk out to a stunning and secluded beach. Catch the ferry in summer to the remote and beguiling Scolt Head Island.

A, V & Polly the pup!
What we would have put in the visitor's book is - the cottage was well appointed, clean, comfortable, the open plan layout downstairs works very well and the outdoor space at the rear was nice and private, a good place for breakfasts and for a "sundowner". As for Burnham Market itself, it's a lovely village with quite a few thriving independent shops, we'd recommend Gurney's fishmongers, the Humble Pie delicatessen and Arthur Howell's butchers, we had a lovely meal at the Hoste Arms. A walk around "The Burnhams" straight from the doorstep is a particular delight at any time of the day - approx 4 or 5 miles depending on what route you take. Burnham Market is a great base for exploring the North Norfolk coast with lots of places in easy reach. Holkham Hall, Park & Walled Garden, Sandringham, Brancaster, Wells, Blakeney and Sheringham Park are all recommended. Thanks for a lovely stay in North Norfolk.

Lovely location in the heart of Burnham Market. Great cottage in a great location with Burnham Market on your door step. Our dog enjoyed with through lounge/kitchen leading to an enclosed, safe back garden. Plenty of kitchen equipment if you want to source some fine meat and fish from just round the corner, otherwise you're spoilt for choice to dine out locally or nearby. Half an hour walk to the marshes, where the views are to die for.

Unfortunately my wife was take seriously Ill whilst we were at Pete Cottage and was rushed to hospital. The concern, and support from Norfolk Holidays was second to none and were there to support us through a very difficult time. My thanks to them.
