  • "A lovely quiet and relaxing place to stay."

    Clean and uncluttered with a well equipped kitchen, excellent WiFi coverage and comfortable sofas and beds. Minor observations that didn’t detract from our holiday were that a few light bulbs that needed replacing, the outside photo showing comfortable recliners on the patio area were actually reserved for the owners use and were not included in our area. Apart from that, a great place to use as a base to visit Ely, Kings Lynn, Norwich, Sandringham and the North Norfolk coastal towns and villages.

  • "A superb spacious cottage."

    The property is beautifully maintained through out. It benefits from a wonderful view of rural Norfolk and although set in a truly rural location is only minutes from historic Kings Lynn and also easily within reach are Sandringham Royal Estate, the Victorian seaside town of Hunstanton and the North Norfolk coast. Should you stay at the cottage during the colder months of the year (as we did in December) it is very warm and comfortable with underfloor heating throughout. Should any problem occur with the property (we had absolutely none) Tony and his wife live next door and are very friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this property to all!!

  • "A lovely property, very warm and cosy, comfortable and well equipped."

    Very convenient location for exploring North Norfolk and coast. Even went to Sandringham to see “Illuminate” which was a spectacular light show in the park and a great way to start Christmas celebrations. The photographs do not do the cottage justice as it’s even better than we expected. Location is quiet and rural with lovely local walks. We had a glorious sunny week so the property lived up to its name with beautiful sunrises and sunsets across the big skies. Added plus we could charge our hybrid electric car easily. Had a Morrison’s delivery for basics on arrival plus used all the wonderful farm shops for vegetables, meat and fish. We would certainly stay here again on our next winter bird watching trip.

    Owner was friendly and had helpfully installed an outside electric socket, so I could connect and slow charge my electric car. Bonus was the wind turbine on site that produced zero carbon power! The beds were comfortable but the double bed in the master was a bit squeaky. The kitchen was well equipped but the pot and pans were in need of updating due to wear and tear. Some more non-metal utensils would be useful to avoid scratching.

This is right next to the owners' garden so you get to meet their dogs (through the fence). There is lots to do in the local area. We also found a couple of good pubs in a nearby village.

Stated location of the holiday cottage is 2 miles along Setch Road from the A10. In reality the cottage is just 1 mile, so you could easily miss the turning into the drive).

As no boat trips run in January we drove an hour and a half to Horsey beach to see the thousands of grey seals up close, an unforgettable experience.

About the location

KING'S LYNN

Sandringham 9 miles; Snettisham 13.4 miles; Hunstanton 17 miles.

King's Lynn is a historic, medieval port dating back to the 12th century, situated on the River Great Ouse. A treasure trove for history lovers, the town boasts grand merchant houses, art galleries and museums, and the Custom House, built by Henry Bell in 1683, which is a Grade I listed building. The town retains its original winding streets and alleys, and boasts good shopping facilities, with a combination of national retailers and specialist shops, along with a selection of pubs and restaurants. Much of the surrounding Norfolk countryside is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with the West Norfolk coastline within easy driving distance. Hunstanton, in particular, is renowned for its sunsets and lovely beaches. Boat trips are available from several points along the coast, while the Norfolk Coast Cycleway runs from King's Lynn to Cromer. The impressive Visitor Centre at The Queen's fabulous country retreat, Sandringham, is also a short drive away and well worth a visit.

This property offers the following short breaks:

  • Winter
  • Off-season
  • Last minute
