The place was absolutely lovely. But unfortunately the hot tub didn't work for the majority of our trip which took the shine off the place a little. The owner tried his best but unfortunately due to the time of year could not get anyone out to fix it. Property was clean, comfortable and kitchen was well equipped.

We stayed in the cottage over Christmas week and had a wonderful time. The cottage was beautifully decorated with Christmas decorations throughout which was a lovely touch, also a thoughtful welcome pack was provided. The house was very clean, modern and spacious, and very well equipped with everything we needed. We went for walks around the fields and onto the marshes, the village is a short walk away and has a lovely little shop and delicious coffee and fresh pastries. Hot tub was great, so peaceful listening to the birds. Beautiful home in a lovely part of Norfolk. Thank you Patrick we had a great time.

We stayed for four nights this November and didn’t want to leave! We were celebrating a 30th birthday and made the most of everything- the marvellous garden, the top of the range hot tub, the BBQ and of course the surrounding salt marsh area, taking out the kayak and bird watching. The resident tawny owl made sitting out watching the stars a must too. Our host Patrick was very friendly and communicative making booking and organisation easy. The local amenities, Red Lion pub and Stiffkey stores are a must visit. Really hope to come again.

Great location; nice, well-equipped house

The location is exceptional - with a path down to the marshes from the back garden. The house is well-equipped with top of the range oven, dishwasher etc., plenty of crockery and kitchen utensils. Large garden at the back and a pleasant veranda at the front of the house. Four good sized bedrooms, only negative was the very creaky double beds. Host replied immediately to any questions and was very helpful.

Luxurious living surrounded by nature

This property was amazing: it was extremely comfortable and much higher quality than the photos portray. Had everything you needed including large, well stocked kitchen, enclosed garden for the dog, BBQ, quality, comfortable garden furniture front and back (to catch the sun in the morning and evening), outdoor hose to clean the dog (!) washing line post beach/marsh, and even mulberry trees in the garden! Absolutely stunning location looking straight out over the fields that edge the marsh at Stiffkey. Watched hares in the field from the bedroom window in the morning and Kestrels hovering over the adjacent field whilst sipping wine in the hot tub in the evening. Superb. Many thanks Patrick.

Most enjoyable.

We had a most enjoyable stay and loved the fact that we could open the gate and enjoy lovely walks. The garden is well fenced so there was no need to ever worry about the dogs. The cottage is very well equipped, clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend anyone to enjoy the bliss of this lovely remote spot.

Perfect Location

The cottage was warm and welcoming. The owner, Patrick, was responsive to all of our questions. All of the appliances were in good working order. Most importantly was the location of the property. We could walk out our door and go straight to the marsh. We spent six unforgettable weeks here and we recommend it highly.

Not as expected.

Property looked tired from outside, two old wooden chairs dangerous, under roof full of cobwebs. Cutlery, cups, and glasses dirty. Downstairs bathroom mirror light full of dust on top and didn't work. Floors polished but to slippery, especially with rugs on top. Downstairs double bed mattress didn't fit bedstead correctly, gap either end, and far to soft, also very squeaky. Website states hot tube, when you look at all 56 amenities states Spa whirpool, where was ? This was one of our key factors. Would not recommend, very disappointed.

Stiffkey marshes

This is a lovely property, of the beaten track but easily accessible to beautiful spots along the north Norfolk coast. The accommodation is spacious and very well appointed. The back garden has an impressive large round table and 8 comfy chairs. An added bonus is a gate that leads onto a pleasant walk. All in all a fantastic holiday spot.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location

We stayed in Mulberry Cottage as 3 generations of the family and one dog. The cottage had everything we needed and a lot more. We arrived with temperatures of 2c and snow but the cottage quickly heated up whilst we unpacked everything. The cottage was extremely spacious, especially the master bedroom upstairs which was so light and airy with brilliant views! The marshes are only a short walk away and you can walk for miles in either direction…we walked to Blakeney twice and Wells once, plus you can go towards the village with Stiffkey Stores about 10 mins walk away and the Red Lion about 15 mins walk way. Would recommend both! The kitchen was extremely well equipped with a lovely big double oven and massive fridge freezer. We wish the weather was better as the garden was lovely and our dog wanted to spend all day out there with his toys plus the bird life visiting the garden was amazing…will bring some bird food next time! Honestly one of the best places we have visited in North Norfolk and would love to return in the near future.

We spent the Christmas week here and chose the house for its location. The house is modern well equipped and very close to the beach. We spent our time exploring the area and relaxing. The only very minor discussion with everyone was that the sofa is not the best for comfort but don't let that put you off .
