Had a lovely time at this comfy, clean cottage. Everything you need in the kitchen to make some lovely meals. Location is very central which is great for exploring.

Excellent position in Sherringham including for parking but only for one car on premises not two. Lots to do within very easy access, including shopping and eating. We expected a better welcome pack including fresh milk and felt a slight refresh of some items in the property was due.

This was our first visit to Sheringham & on viewing/booking 'The Boat House' we were not disappointed with our accommodation. It certainly has the 'WOW' factor from pulling up outside, to entering the property & reaching the top of the stairs to the lounge area, which is an excellent open space with plenty of light flooding in through the balcony doors. This just draws you to the Balcony which is great place for 'people watching', especially as were here for the 1940's weekend. The location is perfect & has the added bonus of it's own parking spot. We loved our time here, so much so that we have booked a return in September 2025
