A lovely quirky, off grid cabin with visible history. The location is wonderful. The beds were very comfortable. The sun room was great with plenty of seating. The decoration is charming - so nice the original gas lights are still there ( not for use!) The gas fridge is small by nature.

If you love beach living and being right next to the sea, then this is the place for you. Glamping but without the tent.

Location is fantastic. Imediately next to beach (front), lake (rear), coastal path and Snettisham RSPB reserve. Cottage is as described. Photos are accurate. It was very clean and comfortable if a bit quirky.

A charming, cosy, and simple retreat. The cottage felt very personal, and reading the story behind its name 'Gaggy' was such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommend and would love to return.
