A comfortable cottage to stay for a few days. Welcome gifts including milk in the fridge, biscuits, tea & coffee bags were appreciated. Also the flowers on the table. Wi-fi worked well. Outside seating was a treat in the hot weather. Very close to bus stops with buses every hour.

We love this cottage. Second visit for us and it felt like coming home. If you are looking for modernity with top range bathrooms and kitchens, then this place may not be for you. But if you want a cute but spacious, comfortable cottage with everything you need, and in a great location, then we fully recommend. Shops are walking distance, a pub next door, and miles of coastal path a 1 minute walk from the cottage. Nice and clean and a warm welcome too with biscuits of both the human and dog variety. We will certainly visit again!

Great stay in beautiful Norfolk. We were there to attend a friends birthday close by so the location was perfect! Lovely pub next door and everything very accesible! Also handy to have off street parking as there was a festival on at the pub so it was pretty busy but fun!
