A short drive brings you to some of North Norfolk's finest destinations, including the vast sandy beaches along the coast and the impressive Holkham Hall estate, set within extensive parkland, woodland and coastal landscapes—perfect for a full day out exploring.

Whether you're looking for coastal walks, wildlife, or simply a peaceful retreat, this cottage offers the perfect base to enjoy everything North Norfolk has to offer.

Excellent location for exploring the North Norfolk coast

Lovely cottage, it was very relaxing and the selection of local books was a bonus, more of a personal touch. Home from home. Thank you for the Apple Juice and goodies.

Warm, cosy, well equipped cottage

Quiet, cosy cottage with everything that we needed and parking right outside the house. Walking distance to the village shop and pub. The generous welcome pack was much appreciated too! Would definitely recommend.

A small but characterful cottage in a very agreeable location

The cottage is adjacent to stiffkey stores which was very convenient & close to the small stiffkey river which was ideal for a picnic. It is is set in a gravel cul-de-sac with other period properties. Located close to beautiful beaches including Holkam, Wells & Blakney. The wildlife is fabulous & each morning & evening we were entertained by a number of Swifts & Swallows. At nightime an Owl would hoot tunefully behind our cottage. The coast is rich in birds & wildlife. It is a very picturesque area & very unspoilt & natural. We would certainly return.
