Reviews

What a wonderful place to stay for a holiday. I have stayed in quite a few holiday let’s but this one has to be the best by far ! We stayed here for 7 nights in July with family and young kids. The cottage is amazing, clean, beautifully presented and really spacious. Has 7 large bedrooms which are tastefully decorated. Large spacious lounge and dining room and breakfast/kitchen room and huge garden with chairs and barbecue facilities so ideal for outside entertaining ! Good for kids with cots, high chair etc. Ideal location for exploring north Norfolk coast and also very close to Cromer to walk into via the beach or over the top of the cliffs. Overstrand itself is very quaint, lovely High Street and the beach is only a 5 minute walk. Also within 2 minutes is a great pub with family beer garden with kids play equipment (White Horse) and a village store. Can’t recommend this place enough. We all had a fab week and will definitely be returning again.
