A good base to explore north Norfolk. The downstairs living space is generous and the accommodation is accurately described. It is a very pretty dog friendly cottage.

Stunning little cottage in a really quiet location. It was very conveniently located to the whole of the North Norfolk coast . Nice pub in the village. It was a shame not to have a little welcome basket as most other cottages do, with some nice Norfolk produce. We would love to come back sometime.

A lovely cottage warm and cosy in a great location for exploring north Norfolk. Good pubs nearby ( the pies at the 3 horseshoes were smashing). There were no footpaths near the cottage but lots of nice walks within a short drive and the beaches were dog friendly. So a really nice dog friendly stay.

Note checkout is 9.00 not 10.00 like other places. This should be made clear before booking not afterwards. Apart from that Cottage was lovely and a good location for visiting places in north Norfolk. Carpenters Arms well worth a visit for eating out.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this very pretty cottage but does have a few drawbacks. However nice and warm and in a good location. Unfortunately we had limited access to back garden when we were there as grass had been reseeded so couldn't let dogs out there. In a good location for accessing coast and country.

A really lovely cottage that was perfect for us and our two dogs - the gardens are enclosed back and front and the cottage is very comfortable but also practical with wooden floors/tiles downstairs. It was very well equipped and good to have the utility area/downstairs loo. A very quiet location close to some amazing beaches. We have already recommRead moreended it to a couple of friends who have dogs and would love it. Hide
