Nestled in the sleepy village of Little Barningham, this delightful holiday cottage blends original character features with contemporary style for an enticing Norfolk escape. Providing accommodation for up to five guests, this light and welcoming property is perfect for couples or small families seeking a tranquil base within easy reach of the area’s many attractions. After a busy day exploring, return home to snuggle in front of the wood burner or enjoy a cuppa or glass of wine on the sunny garden bench.

Set down a quiet lane and overlooking fields, this two-storey cottage has been renovated to a high standard. Original latched doors and exposed beams add character, while light walls offer a sense of space.

Hadn't been to North Norfolk for 20 years and it remains very special (ideal for cycling as well). Little Barningham tranquil & quaint.

A very quiet rural location. Lovely view from lounge onto grassy hill. Saw deer there and an owl flying over at dusk. Cottage is very cosy and comfortable. No mobile coverage but wifi is good.

The cottage was absolutely perfect, thank you. We had a fantastic time. The location is lovely and peaceful and our two small children loved seeing the deer, pheasants and rabbits. There is a lot to do in the area without having to drive too far. We are already considering booking again!

Such a fab holiday had here. The property had everything we needed and more. The local areas of Holt, Sheringham, Cromer were great for walks, and The Pigs at Edgefield was great for dinner! Couldnt have asked for a better base to explore North Norfolk.

Wow what a fabulous home. We have made great memories here with the kids and will treasure this forever. The house was well equipped and had everything we needed for a great stay. The layout of the house is brilliant and works great with the kids. We especially liked Holt, Sheringham and Cromer for shops, restaurants and walks.

What a beautiful place to stay for Christmas! The home had everything we could have asked for and the location with wildlife was a huge bonus. We had lovely local walks in the crisp and fresh air. We have had a wonderful time here and will recommend to all friends and family. Thanks so much for letting us stay in this wonderful part of Norfolk.
