    We were really touched by all the efforts made to decorate the place and make it feel really festive! Heacham is really well placed for exploring the area and contains enough shops, pubs and takeaways for all needs within walking distance. An easy walk to miles of dog friendly beach too, and the enclosed back yard was perfect for the dog. Parking is possible round the back for unloading but we decided it was easier to park on the street at the front from then on and never struggled to find a space.

  • "The cottage was very clean."

    The kitchen was well equipped everything you could possibly need. The lounge was cosy, but the sofa throws were unpractical on leather and we spent a lot of time adjusting them, although the cottage sleeps 6 only seating in lounge for 4 adults. The steps are steep as described but the bottom 2 are small and extra care is certainly required. We parked roadside as the parking space was originally the back garden and access is extremely difficult if the neighbours car is on the their driveway.

    It was fully equipped with everything we needed and nearby a small Tesco, pubs and within easy reach of the lovely shingle beaches. The only problem was the very steep staircase which had to be climbed with some difficulty. This however was mentioned in the itinerary. A valuable suggestion would be for a downstairs loo. This would save having to go up the stairs each time and would also be beneficial if there are several people staying at Fearn cottage.

The large front room was well adequate for the family to enjoy their interests, and with the dining room, more games could be set up on a big table. The smart bathroom was well adequate for our age groups to use, The delightful kitchen had all we needed to make our own meals , and in the village (town?) there were well enough shops to provide for our regular needs. The book completed by earlier tenants was well enough completed to provide outside public houses for eating out.And a range of places to visit.

    Off road parking is a bit hopeful, maybe a Smart car or very small hatch and then you lose the garden space somewhat. Also the house next door actually has a designated space and if they parked there you would be lucky to get back out!! It didn't bother us that parking was roadside and on a first come first served basis as to how near but potentially it could annoy some clients. That is just a comment and did not detract at all from our enjoyment of Fern Cottage, the village and the surrounding area.

  • "Lovely cottage in a nice area , dog friendly."

    Lovely decorated beautiful summer house , unfortunately the dishwasher broke during our stay and couldn’t be fixed until the day we departed. Sofas in the lounge could do with replacing very soft and uncomfortable. Enjoyed our stay over all.

  • "We were very unlucky with the weather for the most part of our week’s holiday, so it was lovely to return to our cottage which was warm, homely and very comfortable after days out in the bleak cold of Norfolk."

    The kitchen was very well equipped, which was a great help as we had our toddler grandson with us and so needed to eat in each evening. The beds were extremely comfortable too and the only disappointment was that the poor weather prevented us from making use of the garden and summerhouse as much as we would have liked. It is a very convenient location for exploring this lovely part of the country.

  • "Fabulous accommodation, beautifully appointed."

    Comfortable throughout. Immediately settled into a relaxing break. Would recommend Fern Cottage and would stay there again.

  • "Fern Cottage was a lovely holiday base for our short break in March 2018."

    The cottage was decorated beautifully, warm and cosy and had everything we needed. The outside space was also fully equipped and safe for small and large dogs alike. The cottage is close to the beach, and you can walk to Hunstanton via the promenade which is suitable for pushchair. It has shops, pubs and food takeaways within walking distance and is a very pleasant area to stay. The on road parking was the biggest issue as the roads are narrow and you can only use the back garden for parking if the access is clear. In the height of Summer this could be a problem, but for out of season it worked well for us. We will be definitely booking again, a great cottage and good position for exploring the Norfolk coast - there are some great places to eat and out of season easy to get in without booking. A fabulous dog friendly cottage well worth visiting.

  • "Paul and Sue were brilliant and we can’t thank them enough."

    We decided to get married while we were on holiday and had a few things to check out with them and they were great with helping out. The house is immaculate and lovely and cosy (bring slippers though as the kitchen floor is a bit nippy). We will definitely be going back to this house m. We love Norfolk and being in Heacham means that we can explore the coast.

About the location

HEACHAM

Hunstanton 2.5 miles; King's Lynn 15 miles.

Heacham is a large village located on the West Norfolk coastline, on The Wash, boasting a lovely family friendly sandy beach, ideal for jet skis, kitesurfing and windsurfing. The village has many cottages built from Carstone, which is a feature of this part of Norfolk, and also offers a good range of shops, restaurants and country pubs. Within walking distance is Caley Hall, home to Norfolk Lavender with its sweet smelling lavender fields, and Heacham Hall, owned by John Rolfe, who brought his young bride Pocahontas to England to live at the hall (in the local church of St Mary you will find a memorial to her). This part of Norfolk is renowned for its abundance of birdlife throughout the year, with several local RSPB sites, while within easy driving distance is Pensthorpe Nature Reserve and Gardens, as seen on BBC's Springwatch. Nearby Hunstanton offers traditional seaside entertainment including a sealife centre, while The Queen's Sandringham Estate is just a 15 minute drive.
