This was a lovely cottage and in an excellent position, only a very short walk to the beach and town. Some nice nautical touches in the decoration of the property. Beds were very comfortable and soft furnishings of good quality. We brought our small well-behaved dog and we were delighted to see that she had her own treats in the welcome pack.

Lovely little cottage, in the middle of everything, yet quiet later at night. Would definitely recommend

Perfect little cottage in a fantastic location right in the centre of Cromer. The cottage was modern in amenities (kitchen, bathroom, TV etc) and cosy and quaint in character. Location for the beach, pubs, restaurants, coffee shops and other shops could not have been better. Parking was on the road and not at the actual property but this was not a Read moreproblem and we enjoyed free parking for the duration of our stay. Patio/garden area was great. Beds comfy. Highly recommend. Hide
