Lilac cottage is comfy, cosy and well appointed. Its centrally located in the village which means everything is within easy walking distance. That said, it was nice and quiet. Everyone we encountered was friendly. A perfect location for a short break with easy access to the many North Norfolk beaches.

We had a lovely time in the cottage. It's the perfect location in the centre of the village. Very quiet with a nice dog friendly garden. Not far from the co op and the pubs where you can get lovely meals for a good price. Close to the coast and Sandringham. I can highly recommend this cottage, we will use again.
