  • Appealing brick and flint Cromer cottage set in a charming row where fishermen once lived
  • Airy accommodation with a maritime feel and a pretty, cottage-style, courtyard garden
  • Superb for exploring the town, spending time on the beach and heading out along the coast

Property code: OC-1635

A breezy fisherman’s cottage set in a leafy corner of Cromer on the glistening North Norfolk Coast. This charming retreat is perfect for a couple or young family seeking a seaside getaway with their faithful companions. Slip into wetsuits and attempt to tackle the foaming swells crashing ashore Cromer Beach (700 metres) or cheer on from the sandy sidelines, then delve into an al fresco lunch on the secluded patio.

This well-presented property features an airy coastal interior with clean lines, sea blue tones, and calming nautical artwork. Slip off sandals at the door then potter in the bright shaker kitchen as you rustle up a dinner spread of locally sourced seafood. Top off glasses with your favourite tipple then delve into a celebratory meal gathered around the wooden dining table. Retire into the lounge and sink onto the squishy sofas with a brew while your pups snooze on the rug. Get competitive with a family games night or snuggle up with a film on the TV. There is also a handy utility room for sprucing up any sandy outdoor gear. As night falls, ascend the stairs and slip into the soft sheets of a sunny double with a wrought iron bed frame and a cosy single room for the little one. Bask in the balmy Norfolk climate as you recline in the lush courtyard garden with a frothy coffee.

Scoff a soft scoop ice cream and watch the waves lapping below as you saunter along Cromer Pier (500 metres) then gear up for an afternoon of crabbing. Follow the scent of fresh bakes then settle in for a spot of afternoon tea in one of the welcoming cafes peppering the high street (300 metres) or stroll the golden shoreline of West Runton Beach (1.5 miles).

Fire was reported not working by last occupants, still was not working. The small bedroom there is not enough room to swing a cat and no heating. Stairs unsafe as no handrail all the way only a small one at the bottom and an upright one at the top, very steep.

Very comfortable dog friendly cottage with a nice enclosed garden it is well equipped however a small freezer compartment in fridge would have been a bonus. It is as described a very steep staircase but plenty of handrails and a small second bed big enough for an adult of 5 ft 2 overall very happy with our stay

We had a wonderful week-long stay at Horseshoe cottage. The location is perfect for both Cromer town and the beach, and the nearby park/meadow was useful to take the dog. The cottage itself was cute and clean and we were very comfortable there (we were 1 x couple with a dog.) The garden was more private than I thought it looked from some of the phoRead moretos - the dog liked exploring the bushes and the patio by the house was a lovely place to sit with a coffee. The locked outhouse was big enough to store a surfboard which was handy too. I would recommend (for small families like ours!) Hide

Cottage was comfy enough for a short break, every thing you need is there. Enclosed rear garden and a short walk from seafront. Street parking near on impossible, closest place is Morrisons were you can book via a few Apps. Electric heaters take some getting used to.

You often see a cottage or hotel online, looking so clean and perfect, only to be slightly disappointed by reality. In the case of this great little cottage, it was as clean and perfect as I imagined. Also the location was amazing for shops and basically everything in Cromer. So much thought has gone into providing everything you will need, by the Read moreowner and the cleanliness was outstanding to be honest. The neighbours were also very friendly and welcoming. Im so glad we chose Cromer and Horseshoe cottage. Hide
