Thornham is a vibrant picturesque village that forms part of the conservation area on the North West Norfolk Coast. There is a wide sandy beach and a small harbour, both of which form part of a local nature reserve, a paradise for walkers and birdwatchers. There are so many tempting pubs/restaurants and eateries in the village. There is a lovely deli/village shop next to the children's playground and communal tennis court. There is also a delightful farm shop on the western edge of the village, with the Yurt restaurant, Gurney's fresh fish, Eric's fish and chips and an array of other shops. The coastal town of Hunstanton is just four miles away, it has a sandy beach, long promenade boasting stunning sunsets and many attractions for children. The Coast Hopper bus can take you to Wells-next-the-Sea where you can try crabbing on the quay, or spot seals at nearby Morston or Blakeney, or visit villages including Brancaster and Burnham Market - an excellent opportunity to leave the car behind and enjoy the scenery. Don't miss one of the best beaches in the UK at Holkham, where you can also explore the hall and vast parkland within the Estate. HM The Queen's Sandringham Estate is close by, as is the Titchwell RSPB Reserve, or head to Holme Dunes nature reserve, run by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust.

Lovely relaxed stay in a beautiful location. Welcome pack was a really nice surprise as was the cleanliness of the cottage throughout. Everything you could need from a relaxing cottage stay. The stairs might be steep for some, but the rope handle really helped and along with the low lintel doorway into the lounge/kitchen it certainly makes for a quRead moreirky characterful abode. Lots of useful material to read through available and many walks and eateries from the doorstep. Parking also handy and easy. Wonderful stay Hide

Beautiful little cottage which is very clean and furnished so tastefully. The lovely courtyard off the kitchen is a great sun trap during the day. The only setback is the staircase which is totally unsuitable for anyone with mobility issues.

Given the information above, I dont think it sensible to review our stay prior to our recommendations being implemented. Similarly recommend a friend would not be positive given our findings. I would be happy to discuss my comments with a lettings manager if you would like have more information on the matter.
