The cottage was perfect and delightful with the house being very picturesque with plenty of internal room and two bathrooms. Also the pub almost opposite the cottage was a good watering hole and the food was good.The location was ideal for exploring the Norfolk Broads and we clocked up many miles (both on land and on the rivers) and visited plenty of places. The beaches were magnificent and towns like Norwich with its Cathedral, Cromer, Great Yarmouth and Caister-on-sea did not fail. National Trust places we visited were quite magnificent and a trip to Sandringham is a must.For 8 days we packed in many trips and the cottage always provided a haven for tired travellers. A great time and a super cottage.

We stayed at the cottage for four days as a family of four adults and three children, and overall, it was a lovely break. The location was brilliant — peaceful, scenic, and convenient — and the cottage itself was well set up, with a neat and pleasant outdoor seating area. Despite our group size, the space didn’t feel cramped at all, which made for a comfortable stay.That said, the cleanliness on arrival was disappointing. The cottage hadn’t been properly cleaned, which was particularly frustrating with small children in tow. In hindsight, I wish I’d contacted the owners straight away to request a re-clean. Additionally, the highchair provided was unusable due to how dirty it was.One thing that would have been helpful ahead of time was more information about the bedroom layouts. One of the children’s rooms was located on the ground floor, right by the front door — not ideal for younger kids and something we would’ve liked to plan for in advance.Overall, the stay had a lot of positives, but a few key details let it down.

Highly recommend

What an amazing find Sea Holly cottage was!! The house is gorgeous, communication from Owen was great from the start when we had a question about bed set up. Location is perfect, walk to the beach and the cafe there for breakfast. And cross the road to the pub for dinner and a drink in the sun! House itself is so comfortable, plenty of lovely comfie chairs inside and out- the small garden was a sun trap, wish we had a bbq with us that would have been perfect! Kitchen was very well equipped, only thing no pods for coffee machine and dishwasher which would have been super helpful - but that’s definitely nitpicking. The beds were comfie, and the downstairs room was perfect for my disabled mum as it was right by the toilet/shower and meant she didn’t have to climb stairs. It was a small room but perfect for what we needed. Really loved the property, will definitely stay again when we visit the area next!

Perfect location, but not ideal

The property location is ideal in a small village close to the beach. Cleanliness in the bathrooms and kitchen was very good, however the living rooms had a doggy smell which was engrained into the furnishings.

Beautiful Thatched Cottage

We spent a lovely long weekend in this beautiful cottage. We were five adults and our dog and there was ample space for us all. The cottage was very well equipped and the location was perfect. A lovely pub just opposite, fish and chip shop round the corner, a well stocked shop and the beach barely minutes away. We will definitely return.

We have stayed here before and enjoyed it. A bit of a bugbear on this trip was the creaking and stretching of the building at night which was sufficient to wake us.

Had a great week staying in this house. It's set up well with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The area has terrific dog walks, either across the countryside, the dunes or gorgeous beaches. In fact, the whole town seems to have dogs !
