Just around the coast from Holkham the pretty harbour town of Wells-next-the-Sea also offers a sandy beach, this time with a string of colourful beach huts running along the edge of the dunes. For a different kind of day out, the historic properties of Holkham Hall, Houghton Hall, and Sandringham all make for interesting and relaxing day trips, or alternatively why not take a guided boat trip out to see the seal colony at Blakeney Point?

We had a wonderful holiday at Toolmakers cottage recently with our Dachshunds! The cottage is beautiful, very well organised and equipped with everything you could possibly want. Everywhere was very clean and all appliances worked well. The garden is large and has several different areas including a patio area with some super comfy seating. The ComRead moremon is just opposite the cottage and we had some really pretty walks and didnt use the car at all whilst we were there. Would definitely visit again. Hide

Beautiful cottage set in a quiet little village. Gorgeous view from the master bedroom window over the fields and natural watering hole for coots, moorhens and curlews. Pretty back garden to sit and relax in the evening watching the sparrows nesting in the hedges. An ideally situated cottage to explore north Norfolk.
