Charming old cottage in a beautiful setting, located centrally for exploring the area. We found a lovely circular walk for the dogs from the door. Everything you could possibly need was supplied, an eclectic mix of very old and new. The bathroom and toilet has been renovated, the bed linen and towels excellent. It would benefit from a spring cleaRead moren both inside and out to make it a lovely holiday cottage. Hide

A beautiful cottage in a very quiet location. Everything you need is provided and the cottage is lovely and warm. We loved the original furniture especially the wardrobe. Lovely big, secure garden which the dog really enjoyed. We had a fabulous October break and would love to return in the summer to make the most of the garden.

I have stayed at Badger's Hideaway several times now and love it. Its located within 20-30 minutes of most tourist locations such as Wells-next-thesea, Hunstanton and Blakeney Point. The cottage itself is full of character with old beams and an inglenook fireplace, but with modern and fresh dcor. It has a huge garden which is great for enjoying theRead more summer days. The owners have also put together a really useful guide to all the local attractions (and there are many) to help you decide how to spend your time. Overall I would highly recommend a stay Hide
