If you're six foot tall or over you will bang your head on the ceiling going upstairs, you will bang your head on the door frames upstairs.the fence separating the yard from the pub is about 5.5ft tall therefore you can see everyone in the pub beer garden and they can see you.the lounge isn't big enough for two settees.we rang the owners twice, left a message twice on the answer machine and the didn't bother replying.great location, the noise from the pub is what you'd expect being next door,so it didn't bother us.Great shower,great location,everything you need in a kitchen

We had a lovely stay at Seashells Cottage in Cromer. The cottage was very clean, well equipped, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is brilliant – just a short walk to the seafront and pier, and very close to the Co-op and other amenities.The cottage is next to a busy pub, so you will hear some noise, but this didn’t bother us at all. In fact, we enjoyed the atmosphere. The owner was also very kind and helpful. We would happily stay here again.
