  • 200 metres from the Norfolk Coast Path

Property code: OC-2290

A wonderful cottage that’s just 200 metres from the Norfolk Coast Path, one of the most scenic ways guests can explore this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The dog-friendly cottage features spacious living areas including a conservatory, versatile bedrooms and an enclosed garden home to a children’s play area. It is the ideal base for a relaxing family holiday or break away with a group of friends, within reach of lovely North Walsham, Cromer and Sheringham.

The beautiful flint and brick cottage stands off a quiet road surrounded by properties of a similar size and character. Light and bright, its interior is draped in tasteful soft furnishings spread about hard flooring on the ground level and carpets upstairs. The spacious lounge is perfect for quality family time after an indulgent meal prepared and served in the lovely kitchen/diner opposite. The conservatory offers a peaceful hideaway from all the hubbub, but for those parents plagued by messy children, a utility room nearby is ready and waiting to share the load. Upstairs, guests can get cleaned up in the family bathroom before a restful night’s sleep in either the en-suite king-size bedroom, the neighbouring double bedroom or the twin bedroom. The expansive garden is a place to play, eat and relax, and there’s also a small games room in the garage for those wanting to get competitive.

Trimingham lies just 200 metres from its eponymous beach, a vast stretch of dog-friendly shoreline built for long walks after a hearty meal. Mundesley (4 miles) is great for a wander around or a day at the beach, as are Cromer and Sheringham (5 miles). Farther inland, North Walsham (6.5 miles) offers a warm welcome and a true taste of North Norfolk’s culinary offering.

The cottage was very well equipped, ideally situated to explore Norfolk. A lovely large enclosed garden that was safe for our 2 dogs and our 2 small grandchildren. The added play room was well used by us all.

Dissappointed with this property. From the pictures we were expecting a home from home but what we got was somewhere that needs some tlc.

Impressive detached house in quiet village with lots of parking however some attention to detail needed with cleanliness. Lots of thick dust, cobwebs and spiders make the house feel dirtier than it is. Just needs a good hoover and cleaners to look up and move things when cleaning. It felt like it had been empty for a while. Bed lining and towels hRead moreowever were immaculate and smelt very fresh. No pillow case protectors though. Some fixtures and fittings need replacing (broken kitchen cupboard, panel behind toilet in ensuite keeps falling open when toilet brush is moved, open light fitting above shower, exposed wires in twin room on light fitting) lightbulbs needed replacing as they didn't work on arrival (outside light above back door, lamp in dining room, wall light in living room), broken guttering above conservatory and exposed wires in ceiling light in twin room. House is spacious and nicely decorated with a lovely big garden. The garden is not secure for small dogs as wire fencing behind trees at the bottom has large gaps. Seating area under gazebo couldn't be used as very overgrown and unkept with dirty furniture. Location is good for exploring Norfolk by car. Disappointed that the sea can't be seen like the picture shows as it makes it feel as though the sea will be at the bottom of the garden which it is not. A large farmed field and copse of trees are in-between. Came home late one evening to find glass in conservatory door shattered. Some investigating the next day lead us to believe potentially a gardener had mowed the grass and a stone had flicked up. A complete and unfortunate accident but some prior knowledge that a gardener was due would have been nice. Owners quickly had someone out to assess it and make it secure it however remained unusable for most of our stay. Welcome pack of biscuits, coffee, milk, teabags and soft drink a nice touch. Really good information book provided for guests. I feel bad and disappointed that my review sounds so negative as we really enjoyed our stay as we would return and recommend if small improvements were made. Hide

We really enjoyed our three generation holiday in this spacious, homely and very well equipped holiday home. The location was perfect for coastal walks and visits to towns and National Trust properties in the area. It had a lovely garden and a games room which provided perfect relaxation at the end of each day. Highly recommended.

Beautiful cottage, nicely decorated. Had everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing week away. The children and the dog loved the large garden and we all enjoyed the table tennis and darts in the garage. It's an ideal base for Cromer, Sheringham and Mundesley. Lengthy walks on the doorstep. We'll be returning. Thank you
