About this property

Yew Tree Cottage, Blakeney, Norfolk

Located at the centre of the quintessentially Norfolk coastal village of Blakeney, Yew Tree Cottage is a charming traditional brick and flint cottage. Near to the bustling harbour yet tucked away from the main street, this idyllic hideaway offers a magnificent experience of what coastal life used to be like in this stunning area of Norfolk.

Beautifully constructed from traditional materials, Yew Tree Cottage has been lovingly curated to blend original features with modern conveniences. With original artworks and sculptures displayed throughout, the cottage perfectly embodies contemporary living by the coast. The expertly designed bespoke galley kitchen boasts oak worktops and is well-equipped with modern appliances. Parquet flooring leads through to the serene dining room with seating available for four guests around a delightful farmhouse table. The sitting room offers ample comfortable seating appointed with a cosy wood burning stove. For warmer summer days, the door opens to a courtyard garden. Typical for cottages of this era, the bathroom is located on the ground floor, and features a bath with shower over.

The original cottage stairs to the first floor are very steep, but offer a sensor light and hand rail. Upstairs, the master bedroom is comfortable and romantic, styled with attractive furnishings to compliment the original features, including an ornamental fireplace and wood panelled latched doors. This room boasts a king-size bed dressed with sumptuous bedding and fine linens. Decorated with a coastal theme, the second bedroom hosts twin beds. Located on a loke with no passing traffic, guests are guaranteed a peaceful sleep.

Outside, the fully enclosed courtyard garden offers table and chairs with an accompanying charcoal barbecue. Please see Additional Information for parking advice.

Yew Tree Cottage is set back from the High Street off a small loake (lane), we recommend that you don't try and reverse into the loake to unload, it's very tight.

Set back off the main street yet located close to Blakeney harbour, a mere one minute walk leads to the village quay, pubs and amenities. Yew Tree Cottage is ideally located as a base from which to explore this area of the coast which boasts an exceptional culinary scene, picturesque villages and stunning beaches.

Additional Information
Sorry, no pets.
The duvets and pillows are a mixture of feather and synthetic.
Please Note: Towels are not provided at Yew Tree Cottage.
Norfolk Winder stairs are, as with older character cottages, enclosed, steep, curved and narrow. At Yew Tree Cottage they are carpeted and have an automatic light, rope and wooden hand rail.
Please note, there is no starter pack (which includes tea, coffee, sugar and milk) or welcome hamper provided at this property.
Parking in Blakeney: The closest parking is about 120 yards up the High Street from the cottage - this is a pay and display car park. A few free spaces are sometimes available on the quay, and there is ample parking in the National Trust controlled Carsner car park by the channel. Please note that at very high tides sections of this car park will flood. At busy times the Village Hall car park is free, safe and reliable. Yew Tree Cottage is set back from the High Street, on a small loke (lane). We recommend that you don't try to reverse into the loke to unload as it is very tight

Getting costly & lacking basic provisions
No logs or kindling for burner provided & fire had not been cleaned out by previous user. Given the cost of renting this property a basic grocery welcome pack would not go amiss as is provided at other holiday lets we have stayed in

Beautiful cottage and surroundings in which to spend 34th wedding anniversary.
We absolutely loved everything about this cottage; the decor, furnishings, kitchen equipment. We just want to inform (not complain) that the double mattress of the bed feels as if it needs replacing. Not a big deal and we will happily book again. Thank you so much.

Wonderful bolthole
We had a fantastic few days at yew tree cottage walking the coastal path and watching the amazing array of birdlife along the coast. The cottage is in an ideal location with lots of lovely walks from the door and we’d love to return in the summer to enjoy the pretty secluded patio. The cottage decor was beautiful and evenings in front of the log burner with a glass of wine and a good book were a perfect way to end our day. My only suggestion, would be to make the arrival instructions clearer with the exact location of the loake and position of the cottage - after a long drive and battling with North Sea winds it is not ideal wandering up and down trying to find where you are staying !
