Property code: OC-1274

Spend quality time with your loved one in the Norfolk Coast AONB whilst staying at this charming cottage which is perfect for two. Boasting a pretty, private courtyard and characterful interiors, a romantic retreat here is sure to be one you’ll remember for many years to come. Right on your doorstep you’ll be able to access the Norfolk Coast Path, soaking up the scenery and keeping your eyes peeled for fascinating wildlife.

As you step inside, the living room welcomes you with a comfortable sofa and a quirky single seat, both of which encourage you to kick back and relax beside the electric flame effect fire. On the other side of the room, beneath the TV, is the charming dining table where intimate meals can be shared at breakfast, lunch and dinner. The kitchen is compact yet still has everything you’ll need to cook up a storm, with dual-aspect windows allowing the natural light to flood the space. At the end of the day, the bathroom is a great place to unwind in the bathtub to get yourself ready for a good night’s sleep. Take the stairs up to the mezzanine floor and you’ll find the double bed facing a lovely skylight where you can watch the stars before falling asleep. Outside is the courtyard, surrounded by exposed brick and lush green climber plants with a table for four to allow you to enjoy a meal alfresco when the sun is shining.

Pack a picnic and venture to Holkham Park (7 miles) for a day of walking through more than 3,000 acres of wildflowers, woodland and lake where you’ll be in awe of the scenery and architecture throughout. If you’re a seafood lover, Cromer (18 miles) is a must-visit to sample their tasty locally caught brown crabs, but also to visit the traditional seaside resort where you can spot the iconic pier, see Banksy’s Great British Spraycation piece and spend time soaking up the sunshine on the sandy beach.

Lovely cottage in an ideal location for walks on coastal path, bus service and local pub. Although small, fantastic use of space and great layout. Thoughtful welcome pack was a great gesture and much appreciated.

A very small property for the price commanded - we ABNB a lot and this I don't think presented value for money. Location good for walking both locally and further afield. Local pub Red Lion not worth the recommendations ( we have left a trip advisor post accordingly) food mediocre, service appalling.

Courtyard Cottage is a lovely place for a holiday for one or two fairly agile people. The setting is just beautiful, and close to a good pub and a shop selling lots of superb food. It is a good place to take one or two small pets as the courtyard is fully enclosed. There are a number of steps inside the cottage which could be difficult for some peoRead moreple to manage. It is tastefully furnished. The workspace with monitor and keyboard is a nice touch, and the welcome pack was very welcome! We hope to return soon. Hide

Charming little cottage , smaller than we'd anticipated as we came with 2 dogs , but with good use of space . The mezzanine bedroom was lovely,and the enclosed courtyard safe and secure. Also only a 5 minute walk to the the marshland/beach therefore not really a problem being in a slightly smaller property. Very cosy

Comfortable and attractive cottage which has a small living room which is not very light but the sheltered courtyard garden makes it ideal in the spring and summer months. The coastal path is literally 6minutes walk away down the quiet road the cottage is located on.

Fantastic location, a quiet friendly village. The cottage is less than 5 mins to the coastal path and 5 steps away from the bus stop where you can catch the Coastal Hopper bus However the cottage is in need of some TLC. An awkward layout which would not be suitable for an older person or someone with mobility issues, or someone who is taller than Read moreaverage Hide

Excellent location - lovely little cosy warm cottage - secure courtyard for dog and hose pipe to wash dogs muddy feet and our wellies was a very welcome touch. Great dog walks directly from the cottage door. Super little food and coffee shop just a short stroll from the cottage which was open every day and a lovely pub for breakfasts/lunches and evRead moreening meals also within a short walking distance. Ideal location for exploring the North Norfolk coastline and on the Coast-hopper bus route. Perfect for two adults and a small dog. Hide
