Cosy Cottage in North Norfolk, great for exploring the whole area & Dog friendly
The perfect cottage to wind down, relax and go slow. Situated in central North Norfolk, walks along the coastlines of Holkham, Wells, Holme next the sea, Weybourne are all within half an hours drive.Historical houses of Blickling, Felbrigg again, half an hour away. Bird watching, dog walking,Fakenham Races, artisan shopping ~ we are closely positioned to it all. Norwich is 40mins away & has all the charm a vibrant city needs.
The famous Thursford collection is just 15minutes away from the cottage, and is a perfect base for visiting this show stopping venue.
Coffee stops, farmers markets, country pubs with fireside seats are a plenty here in North Norfolk and most take your dogs on board too. No one is stuck for things to do here - and if nothing’s what you crave for, then there’s no place better.
2 comfortable bedrooms, with a double room overlooking the garden, a twin front bedroom with adult sized single beds, this room still has it’s original fireplace (non working) in it, there’s space for a travel cot here too.
A Mira power shower over a bathtub is upstairs too, all the comforts of a traditional bathroom but with modern luxury.
Steep staircases are very common in Norfolk cottages, ours has handrails on all aspects, please be mindful of this, and being able to step into the bathtub, when booking.
The cottage has a secure garden, with a BBQ seating area too for the summer months, a hot & cold dog washing station outside to rinse off those sandy toes is available for all guests.
“Cosy & comfortable, well equipped & friendly” are what past guests have said in their reviews, so what are you waiting for?
Grab the dog lead, a picnic bag and come to the North Norfolk district - you won’t regret it!

About the host
Hosted by Jayne Klein
We love Norfolk! We relocated here 18months ago and renovated Little Birch Cottage during 8months of 2025.
We live next door in Birch Cottage with our 3 Spaniels and chickens. (If they’re laying well you’ll have eggs for breakfast on your first morning)
We’re passionate about making your visit welcoming and comfortable, Norfolk is the best place to slow down and take a breath, relaxing and enjoying all the lovely scenery around you.
We particularly like to welcome those who work in emergency services and the military as we once worked in them, and know how important it is to take breaks away and recharge.
A welcome hamper will await you on your arrival, and useful information on where to go and visit while you stay.
In the winter months fire wood for your first burn in the log burner is complementary with further nets available to purchase.

What makes this property unique
Recently refurbished and renovated, Little Birch has oodles of charm of a Norfolk farm workers cottage but with the luxury of modern life, power shower, central heating and comfy beds.
Built of red brick and flint with its own driveway and situated just out of the main part of the village ~ and 22minutes from the sandy beaches of Holkham and Wells.
