We had a lovely stay at Betty’s Cottage with plenty of room for the four of us.The house was beautifully presented with everything we needed and very clean. The views across the garden are wonderful, so peaceful. Fakenham is just a few minutes away for supermarkets and other shopping you might need. David and Julie were very welcoming and friendly with lots of local knowledge of the area.It’s a great location for exploring North Norfolk with so much to do and see. We were lucky to have very sunny weather and particularly enjoyed Brancaster beach.Would definitely stay againThank you for a great holiday

Vary well appointed and in a good position near Fakenham not far to the birding sights the beaches or the north north Norfolk railway to Sheringham. It was a pity that the local fish and chip shop had closed but otherwise a great holiday
