The wide beaches of the local coast are close by at Old Hunstanton, Holme-next-the-Sea, Thornham,  Brancaster and further afield at Holkham, Wells & Blakeney. Great for family days out, rock pooling, sand kiting, wind surfing with some amazing evening sunsets.  Less than 3 miles away, Thornham a popular coastal village, has a high quality deli/restaurant, several pubs. Drove Farm Orchards nearby, has several retail outlets & also a farm shop, cycle hire, Eric’s Fish & Chips & Pizzeria & also Mimms Ice Cream Parlour, serving treats & coffee. The RSPB Bird Reserve at Titchwell is just a few miles up the coast and the elegant Georgian village of Burnham Market with its eclectic shops and galleries should not be missed.

The cottage was well equipped and overall very comfortable except for rather hard mattresses. Great position and close to Hunstanton. We really enjoyed our stay with close family and the layout suited our family really well. Very good value. The Gin Trap in the village had amazing food and Eric's fish and chips at Thornham were also a big hit.

Lovely spacious cottage in a very picturesque village. The local pub - The Gin Trap was perfect for an evening drink and the local general store sold absolutely everything! There were 4 generations staying at the property and the downstairs bedroom and ensuite was a real bonus. Hoping to all go back again next summer!

Lovely spacious and well equipped cottage, with each room having its own bathroom. Perfect location for visiting beautiful Norfolk. Off road parking for 4 cars which worked really well for our group of 4 couples. Owners were helpful and promptly answered our questions.
