Reviews

Access to the cottage was across the front of four cottages and around a corner, then across a courtyard, not easy with luggage or in the dark, and with a dog, with very limited lighting. Tiny scruffy private courtyard, not the one shown on the website.

Mrs M,

Location, location, location. 5 minute walk down to the mud flats at Stiffkey and 5 minute walk to the Red Lion. The cottage is perfectly suitable for two people, is well equipped and makes good use of the space available. The shower unit and sink are either side of the corridor connecting the kitchen and bedroom which works out fine if you close the doors to create a bathroom area. Plenty of space for car parking on Green Way but be aware that there is a short walk past the front and around the back of a row of cottages to get to the property so no unloading straight from the car. We really enjoyed our stay and would book again.

Mr L,

Surprisingly comfortable and well equipped characterful small cottage. Friendly, welcoming neighbours. Excellent location for coastal walks in both directions. We didn’t use the car all week thanks to the coasthopper bus pulling up outside. Great stay, thank you.

Mr H,

As a couple with one medium size dog (beagle) the cottage met our needs perfectly… for a February stay, cottage was warm, cosy & comfortable… kitchen very well equipped should guests plan to self cater… easy walk to local pub & to Stiffkey Stores. Dog walk to coastal path directly from cottage; handy for exploring the area, bus stop at end of short driveway.

Ms R,

We found the property without any problems within a lovely garden with some lovely plants a real cottage garden. Was really quiet and relaxing, the adjoining neighbours were very helpful and friendly. So close to Cley & Titchwell wildlife reserves which I really enjoyed. Would definitely consider returning for another stay.

Mr C,

The cottage was lovely, clean and comfy. Amazing how you fitted so much in. Not sure about sharing space outside with others. We do like a garden when on holiday., so wouldn't use this cottage again.

Mrs Yvonne A,
