"Great cottage in a good location close to beach and amenities."
The cottage was very clean and welcoming the out side area is lovely one improvement I would recommend would be to make the grass area part of the enclosed garden we will definitely be returning
Thank you for your lovely comments. Completely agree about fencing in the side grass area but unfortunately not possible as it is managed by the local allotment association and forms part of the Common. We look forward to welcoming you back to Beck View and Sheringham again soon. Property Owner

"Overall, a lovely, characterful cottage, situated very well."
It lies on the Beeston Common, close to the beach, Sheringham town centre, and the Beeston Bump. No shortage of things to do and a comfortable place to spend a few days or a week.

"Lovely cottage in a lovely area."
Proximity to the coast and town a bonus, with plenty of areas to walk the dog.

"A nice house, I'm used to a small house, and steep stairs, so not a problem for me."
I didn't like the floorboards upstairs, much prefer a carpeted floor. Nice downstairs, and i got the heating to work....shouldn't need it in July though!

"Characterful, comfortable and well appointed cottage in lovely location."
Lots of personality and personal touches that added to its charm. We had a great time and all loved it, the enclosed garden was perfect and our dog enjoyed all the places for walks that were accessible from the garden gate. We would definitely recommend and book again.
Thanks for your feedback and we are so pleased you all had a great time and enjoyed the walks and the cottage. We look forward to welcoming you to Beck View again soon. Property Owner

"I enjoyed my stay."
The location was great. The cottage was good for what I needed. The only area that could do with some improvement would be the shower. The water pressure and flow was poor. Overall good value.
Glad you enjoy your stay. The shower has now been replaced (early July) so we look forward to you booking again soon. Property Owner

"Good location and overall a good property."
Unfortunately there was a lack of attention to detail regarding cleanliness. There were numerous cobwebs around the home. The shower and downstairs toilet had obvious areas that had not been cleaned for some time. We were not able to use the kettle at all during our stay as it was full of limescale as were the taps in downstairs toilet. It was a shame that basic things such as these (which should have been picked up) tarnished what would have been an otherwise very pleasant stay. These things are resolvable so hopefully will get addressed in future.
Thanks for your comments. North Norfolk is a very hard water area so unfortunately limescale is a problem in the Sheringham area. The Bosch kettle was only purchased in April 23 so I was surprised to read you felt you couldn't use it however I have arranged to have a new descaler installed which should solve the problem. We look forward to welcoming you to BV again soon Property Owner

"Beck View is a lovely cottage to stay in."
Unfortunately the weather was not on my side during my 3 night stay but obviously in the good weather the local walks with my dog would have been even better. The cottage is situated well with regard to the town and other nearby places to go. So all in all a good cottage the have a holiday in.

"We loved staying in this cottage, a family of four with a four year old and six year old."
My daughter thought the house was "amazing" and wanted to move in. The cottage faces Beeston Common which is a dog walkers' paradise and looks over allotments at the back. We only had to walk 8 minutes to the beach and about the same to a playground with a pirate ship. Lots to do in the local area.

"The cottage was smaller than expected, Not an issue but the entrance hall very small, nowhere to hang wet coats or dry a dog."
The downstairs toilet had no heating, a heated towel rail would be useful. The stairs were steep but not unexpected, but alarmed that the main bedroom entrance was right at top of stairs worried of the risk of falling down stairs if getting out of bed during night as there was no dimmed light to leave on. Could be rectified by adding dimmer switch to hall light. Tried leaving the bathroom light on but the bathroom fan could not be isolated from the light and fan was very noisy so could not be left on, so I left a torch alight on the landing. Bed in main bedroom we found to be very uncomfortable, No allocated parking space for this cottage, but was ample parking space along track, but several houses appeared unoccupied, suspect during peak season parking maybe an issue. Cottage was in walking distance of town and beach, plenty of dog walking from the door.
Thank you for your recent feedback. We were surprised that you felt you needed additional lighting on the stairs as there is borrowed lighting from the street light but glad you made use of the torches provided and something we will certainly look at for future guests. We are glad you parked okay. We haven't had an issue with parking (even in peak season) and don't believe guests have either. There is amble parking for the row of cottages and it is well signposted as 'Residents only' therefore shouldn't cause issues for guests or locals. We hope to see you again in Sheringham soon.

"It is a lovely little house, clean and comfortable full of amenities."
Our drawbacks were 1. My old age. I struggled to walk up the slope to get to the car. 2. My son’s asthma, which was aggravated by the grasses of Beeston Common, so we left a day early. What an shame! Apart from these problems we were very happy. Many thanks from Audrey Tarry ( aged 91 )

The property
Beck View is a well-presented, end-of-terrace cottage in a tranquil spot along a quiet road, overlooking Beeston Common and its wonderful brooks, less than half a mile from Sheringham town centre in Norfolk.
With access to a beach less than half a mile away, Beck View provides a great family home for those looking to escape to Norfolk.
Upon arrival you are greeted by an off-road parking space, so you can easily unload your belongings.
Step inside and discover the lounge, where you can put your feet up beside the woodburning stove and relax; continue through to the kitchen/diner, a light and airy space equipped with all the essentials for home-cooking, perfect for when you’re not sampling a local restaurant.
A patio door leads out to the enclosed garden with furniture, providing an idyllic spot for an evening drink whilst you ponder on the holiday thus far.
Alternatively, the front gravelled garden with views overlooking the common is an ideal spot for breakfast in the morning or enjoying a good book while catching the warmth of the sun during the summer months.
Head upstairs and find the master bedroom, housing a king-size bed with lovely views over the common which can be enjoyed from the table and chairs within the room, whilst there is also a twin and sleek shower room.
The land adjacent to the cottage also has a handy washing line and the surrounding network of streams provide an idyllic ambiance.
The Blue-Flag Beach is just a short walk away, so be sure to remember your seaside essentials!
Also in the same direction is the train station, where the Poppyline Steam trains regularly run from Sheringham to Holt - which is renowned for its selection of cafes, independent shops, antiques and regular annual events such as The Viking Weekend and the 1940s weekend which regularly attract thousands of visitors and transform the town.
Close by are stately homes such as Blickling Hall, Felbrigg Hall and the royal residence at Sandringham, whilst Beeston Common and Blakeney Nature Reserve are perfect for wildlife lovers and those looking to get outdoors!
Local shops and eateries can be found in the town centre, or head further afield to Cromer, Southrepps, Overstrand and Mundesley for more amenities and attractions.
Make Beck View your next escape to Norfolk.

About the location
SHERINGHAM
Cromer 4.8 miles.
Sheringham was originally a small fishing village on the North Norfolk coast, but with the arrival of the railways in 1887 it prospered and grew into a popular holiday town. Sheringham has been awarded ten consecutive European Blue Flags for cleanliness for its beach, along with awards from Britain in Bloom, Anglia in Bloom, and Best Coastal Resort. Enjoy walking along the East or West promenades, offering sea views with blue skies and red sunsets, a beach with a silver-pebbled shoreline leading to golden sands with rock pools and streams next to ochre cliffs, local fishing boats and a RLNI lifeboat station with museum. This attractive traditional seaside town also has the 'Little Theatre', open all year round, seaside gardens with seating, a model boating lake, independent shops, tea rooms, steam railway, golfing, amusement arcades, and fish & chip shops selling locally-caught fish.
