Enjoy a stylish stay on the Norfolk coast at this light, bright, country-style cottage in Bacton which is ideal for families and couples looking for adventure. Retaining much of its original charm, there are a range of beautiful features throughout from a traditional wood burner and wooden flooring to cast iron fireplaces and more. Located within 200 metres of the nearest sandy beach, you needn’t travel far for a day at the seaside with a fish and chip shop also within easy reach for a perfect pairing.

Filled with natural light thanks to the conservatory-style doorway, the living room is a lovely space to kick back and relax with two comfortable sofas and a characterful wood burner set into an exposed brick fireplace offering warmth in the winter. The terracotta tones add to the charm of the room and will ensure you feel at home from the moment you step inside. Thoughtfully designed with family cooking in mind, the kitchen is a space that is sure to set your creative juices flowing, paired with a romantic table and chairs for two. Up the steep cottage stairs you’ll find the two bedrooms, style keeping in with the rest of the property, one furnished with a double bed and the other twins which offers flexibility in the sleeping arrangements. Outside, the garden is an oasis of calm, enveloped by plant life with a table and chairs for a spot of al fresco dining.

You could embark on an invigorating walk along the Norfolk Coast Path between Bacton and Cromer with opportunities to stop off at Mundesley Beach and Overstand Beach for an active day out, or simply take a drive to Cromer for a quintessential British beach day out. Fun for all the family can be found in Wroxham (12 miles) with opportunities for treetop adventures at BeWILDerwood, boat tours of the Broads and friendly farm animals at Wroxham Barns amongst the activities on offer.

This is a beautiful old cottage, unspoilt, comfortable and in a great location with the beach 5 mins walk away down a quiet lane. Lovely secure private sun trap of a garden to the rear and comfy outdoor furniture, very relaxing to sit in after any visits out. This was our 6th visit and have booked again for the end of Sept.

I really enjoyed my stay at Fishermans Cottage: it's in a perfect location close to beautiful Bacton Beach and Walcott Sands and is cosy, warm and comfortable. It's well equipped, dog friendly with fresh, light decor with a 'fisherman's' theme. The owners are friendly and accommodating. I will definitely book again.

Lovely,cosy albeit very small authentic cottage which is around 2 minutes walk from the beach. Please be aware the stairs are extremely tricky if you have any mobility issues, so we did struggle with this. The property has a small kitchen with all amenities but a very small fridge freezer so hard to shop for a few days with 3 adults but obviously rRead moreoom is an issue for anything bigger. It has a lovely homely feel and close to everything you need. Hide

We stay at Fisherman's Cottage regularly. It's lovely cosy cottage in a fabulous location about a minister's walk to the beautiful quiet clean sandy beach. The cottage has a personal feel to it which makes it really welcoming - home from home. Highly recommended!

Very perfect little cottage with a suntrap of a courtyard garden. Pet friendly and within a stone's throw of the beach. Have to say we found the stairs quite steep!

Our stay at Fishermans Cottage couldnt have been any better. We had a very comfortable stay, we slept so well. We didnt want for anything in the cottage as everything had been thought of. The beach, being only a two minute walk away, is amazingly clean with such lovely soft sand that seems to go on for ever, our dog loved it. The Poachers Pocket isRead more just a five minute walk and is a very dog friendly pub, with a convenience store a bit further on. Hide
