Fantastic house in a great location. Close to everything in Sheringham, but still a quiet street. Clean, fresh and nicely decorated. Had a wonderful week with family here. Mattresses could be more comfy, but still slept well and would definitely stay again.

Scira is a lovely cottage in a great spot.The bathroom downstairs needs blinds so does the kitchen/garden door for your privacy leaving the bathroom.The 3 chairs in the lounge are not very comfortable. Needs a second sofa. The toilet upstairs could have done with a good clean, dust and marks on shelving and top of tiles.The parking is on the road and away from the cottage. We had no problem finding a space. We booked a week but stopped a fortnight, the weather was brilliant. Don't be put off with the comments, it was very nice and quiet. It was a very nice stay thank you.
