There were only two of us staying but there would be plenty of room for a family and the kitchen was well equipped. The garden is a good size although we did not use it due to the time of year. There is easily space for two cars on the driveway. I called the owner to get the key press number and he was very pleasant and informative. A great location for Cromer and the surronding area.

It's in a quiet location with an easy walk into Cromer and also a 10 minute walk to Roughton Road railway station which we used for trains to Norwich and Wroxham. We would certainly recommend it and hope to stay there again
