The location is highly praised for being great for exploring the Norfolk coastline and being central in North Norfolk. The proximity to local history and walks adds to the appeal. Parking difficulties due to narrow roads are a slight concern.

The cottage is noted for its comfortable beds and furnishings, with a powerful shower and a large table suitable for work. The overall comfort level is deemed very satisfactory by guests.

While the cottage is well-equipped and generally appreciated, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a non-functioning oven, a bathroom door without a lock, and a garden in need of tidying. These issues suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.

There are no mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

    Lovely place, great location. Very clean.Just a few things that wasn’t great…No lock on bathroom door, oven we couldn’t get to work which made dinners difficult, kettle was in desperate need of descaling and to park your car you need to drive through 2 houses which if you have a 4x4 or large family car it literally leaves a few inches either side. Would stay again

    Excellent location to explore the Norfolk coastline and historic houses. Very comfortable and well equipped cottage. We had a very enjoyable stay.

    We had a lovely stay at the cottage, beautiful area and near to all the coasts etc, the cottage was clean and welcoming, well layed out and beautifully decorated, the only issue was that the bathroom sink would not drain properly, and maybe make people aware that parking for one car means one car, there is no where else to park as on very narrow roads, but other than that we loved it and would recommend.
