A really nice apartment, with plenty of space and in a great central location. We didn't bring a car so avoided what would have been very tight parking. The only omissions I noticed were an extra set of front door keys, and a decent pair of kitchen scissors. Will definitely look to re-book on our next trip to Cromer.
