Poppy Cottage is very well situated in North Norfolk. Its a very quaint, well equipped cottage and we were very comfortable staying there for a week. We had a query about linen whilst we were there and this was rectified very quickly through the owner with no fuss. I would recommend staying here - and it helps that there is a lovely friendly pub/reRead morestaurant at the end of the road! Hide

We had an excellent week staying at Poppy Cottage it was warm and cosy but if you have difficulty with stairs these are very steep. The area has so much to see that you did not need to be on the road for too long before you found somewhere to visit The three horseshoes is only a few steps away and the village Butcher, Bakers and general stores are Read morevery handy with all you need. The Steam railway and National trust are all nearby. This is our first time in the area and look forward to visiting again. Hide
