Stunning, dog friendly 3 bedroom/3 bathroom cottage close to beaches & short stroll to pub
This beautifully converted Georgian coach house is located next to the 14th century church, close to the village green and a short stroll from Banningham Crown, our award-winning, dog-friendly village pub with a great selection of local ales and lovely garden.
The Coach House is very dog friendly and we like to pamper our guests' pooches by providing items to use during their stay to make the holiday easy and relaxing, such as
Water/feed bowls, feeding mat, leads, treats, toys, crates, holiday tags, poo bags/bins, towels, sofa throws and much more. We also provide information on the best dog friendly walks, beaches, restaurants etc so that you can make the most of your stay.
The Coach House is in a great location with easy access to beautiful beaches, the Broads and Norwich and offers a real escape from it all.
Reclaimed exposed timber beams, a secluded, walled south facing lawn and expansive outside seating area make this a perfect location to sit back, relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. The ideal base for your Norfolk adventure.
The main access into The Coach House is via the Games Room which houses the table football, additional television and slouchy beanbags for children to chill out on. There is a downstairs cloakroom and large cupboard to house outdoor coats, buckets and spades, crabbing equipment etc. There is also access to the first floor Barn Bedroom via the second staircase. Both staircases have doors at ground floor level so access to the first floor can be controlled.
The spacious sitting room has an inglenook fireplace and woodburner plus direct access to the terrace outside. Three 2 seater sofas and large coffee table form a sociable and relaxing entertaining area for friends and family to enjoy. There is a large screen TV, DVD player and selection of family friendlygames and puzzles. WiFi is superfast and available in every room of the house.
There is a large, open plan kitchen/dining area with a dining table for six guests and enough pots, pans and other equipment to make you feel right at home! Light fills the room via the French door which opens onto the terraced dining area with large teak table for al fresco summer dining. There is a barbecue and the lawn has reclining chairs for early evening cocktails or lazy Sunday mornings.
Upstairs there are three very spacious bedrooms all with king-size Hypnos beds and each bedroom has its own shower or bath room. The master bedroom is vast and has a beautiful en suite shower room. The Church Bedroom has pretty views of the 14th century church tower - but don't worry there are no bells rung! The Barn Bedroom can be converted to two single beds on request. All of the beds have crisp white sheets and we supply fluffy white towels and complimentary toiletries.
We also supply a comprehensive welcome hamper so that you can relax the moment you arrive. Your holiday can start straight away with a cup of tea and piece of home-made cake, or something stronger if you prefer!

Family Christmas
The Coach House was perfect for our family get together, warm, comfortable and full of character. The hosts couldn't be more welcoming and also provided a welcome hamper. Totally dog friendly. Beautiful village pub just around the corner which serves excellent food. Just what we needed and we would highly recommend.

A break with three dogs!
We had a good week with our dogs, two of which are getting on a bit now, helped enormously by decent weather. Whilst there are limited suitable off-road dog walks in the village (which is the only reason for slightly downscaling the location), it was easy to take them in the car to a wide variety of excellent dog walking venues, including NT properties, a number of beaches and the Weavers way. The cottage itself met our needs perfectly and we were impressed with the thoughtful provision of items to make our (humans and dogs) stay comfortable. The cottage is very convenient for the village pub where we enjoyed good meals on two occasions. We certainly plan to return at some point.
We stayed at the Coach House for a long weekend, just the two of us and our dog and we had the most relaxing time. It's spotless, well equipped and just stunning. We will be back with the extended family!

The Coach House June 2025
Excellent dog friendly accommodation. Very clean & comfortable with attention to detail. Especially good for the dogs with enclosed garden with plenty of dog accessories.
Accommodation is ideally positioned for touring around Norfolk and is a short walk to lovely village pub.
Really appreciated the accommodation information sent in advanced as it helped plan out our holiday.
Would strongly recommend this or the adjacent property to anyone planning a get away to Norfolk.

Fantastic find
This is one of the nicest holiday homes weve ever stayed in. Serena had thought of everything to make it a fabulous break away. From the moment we made contact, she was exceptionally helpful and considerate at every stage and we wanted for nothing. The house was immaculate, spacious and beautifully decorated. Exceptionally dog friendly and most importantly completely secure within the garden. The location is perfect for exploring all of north and central Nofolk. Will be certain to return as soon as we are able.

Lovely Relaxing Stay.
We booked The Coach House for a last minute 4 night stay as the 3 of us needed to recharge our batteries and hoped a change of scenery would help.
Everything was made stress free and easy by Serena.The booking process and pre arrival info was excellent. We had no need to contact her during our stay as her online guidebook covered everything.Importantly though she made it clear that if we needed any “hand holding” we only had to message or ring her. - Perfect.
We had lovely sunny weather so enjoyed our complimentary Prosecco (thankyou) on the terrace but could have been equally happy had it been cold and wet sitting by the log burner in the beautiful ,cosy ,relaxing lounge.
The location was perfect for our trips to Norwich, The Broads and the many beaches and villages.
Suffice to say we arrived tired and somewhat battered by life and left relaxed, happy and rejuvenated by our stay. Thankyou Serena.

A week in the country
This cottage was just amazing; so much thought has been gone to equip it for families and dogs. It is about 8 miles south of Cromer and took us only 20 mins to get to the coast.
The three separate grondfloor rooms were ideal, all had doors opening on to the private secure garden. Even the dogs loved the freedom to roam around the house and garden.
The kitchen was great, plenty of room for all of us at the table and plenty of space around to prepare and cook food. It was very well equipped with good crockery, glasses, pots and pans, utensils and appliances.
The children loved their ‘own’ staircase, their room adjoined the master bedroom which also had access to the other staircase. The other double bedroom was accessed by this staircase too. So lovely to have 3 bathrooms, a real treat.
The walled garden was great, theres a patio area with a generous sized good quality gas BBQ and a lawn which was ideal for 6yr olds cricket.
We all loved our stay and Serena, our host, checked in to ensure all was well. We took away some lovely memories from our family holiday there.

Truly doggie friendly
We had an amazing and super relaxing stay. Everything we had hoped for and such a good set up for our dog too. Completely secure garden (we have a spaniel).
Everywhere we went throughout the stay and everyone was dog friendly, even the butchers in Aylsham who invited him in. Expect everyone to stop and chat to you and your dog.
The cottage was cozy and tranquil and we were provided with the most fabulous welcome hamper, tiger bread (one of our favourites), juice, milk. Cereal and...a bottle of prosecco (also one of our favourites). The dog had his own hamper too, which included treats, bowls, tags, towels, lead, toys.
The app had everything we needed.We used this to help plan trips out but also on our second to last day to find a vet (our dog went lame at the end of a beach walk, we used the app to find the closest vet to the beach we were at. The good news was he was 100% sound by the time we got to the vets).
One one day we left the car behind and walked Weavers Way to Blickling estate, then round Blickling Park and then to Aylsham. Highly recommend this walk and Blickling Park. Aylsham is lovely too, we were very lucky as it was their Christmas light switch on. We then got a taxi back to the cottage, our hot tip is, if you need a taxi book in advance as we nearly had to walk back from Aylsham in the dark (approx an hours walk).
Our favourite beach was Wells, such a large oien expanse of sand, ideal spaniel space.
