Mr Clayton
Lovely, very spacious cottage in a peaceful little village, just a walk away from the seaside town of Sheringham. Comfortable beds and furniture with great views out to the surrounding area. Roadside parking is easy and close at hand, and there is a lovely, fully enclosed private garden area - great for dogs. Access to Sheringham Park, with a friendly little NT cafe, is close at hand - great for walks or runs.

This holiday cottage is beautiful! The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully furnished. The beds were extremely comfortable and offered a great night sleep. The location was lovely although surprisingly busy with the traffic coming through. This did not spoil our holiday in the slightest. The kitchen was well equipped although we did have to babysit the washing machine during our stay as it was loud and trying to vibrate out of its cupboard. If left it would surely do some damage. The house is right next to Sheringham country park which was fantastic to visit with the dog and children. Also the Dales hotel was within walking distance which had beautiful grounds and lovely food. The house was a good base for trips to Sheringham and Cromer and we even travelled further along the coast line to visit many other beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. Thank you.

This cottage is in a lovely, picturesque location a mile from the sea and with numerous walking and cycling routes in Sheringham Park on the doorstep and at Felbrigg Hall Estate nearby. It is beautifully appointed with many luxurious touches in its large rooms. Very comfy beds and sofas!
