Beautifully appointed cottage only a couple of minutes'walk from the town centre. Reserved parking is a few minutes walk away, but unloading is possible in front of the cottage and there was space around the back to store our bikes. Great cycling down quiet roads directly from the property.

Lovely cottage with all the facilities we needed for a fantastic break for the 3 of us and especially the dog. Great location with everything in walking distance. We walked to the country park and to the train station and caught the steam train to Sheringham. The allocated parking was close and easy to find with the supplied instructions.

A lovely cottage, very well presented and in a great location. But, there are only wooden blinds in the bedrooms, no curtains which we found a real issue, especially as there is a street light opposite the front bedroom window which remains on all night, unfortunately. Otherwise couldnt fault it.

A very well presented cottage in a lovely location just a few minutes from the high street. It was great having the allocated parking, even though it was 5 mins walk away, as parking is difficult in the narrow streets. The small courtyard was lovely to sit out in during the evenings. We should point out that there is no dining table at the propertyRead more so unless you are eating in the courtyard you have to sit on bar stools at the island unit which isnt that comfortable for any length of time. Also, if you are 6 foot or more you will not fit under the shower head in the ground floor bathroom! Hide
