We have thoroughly enjoyed our mini break in North Norfolk and your Lovely Cottage truly was!! Would certainly like to come back again.
Brenda & Mike Hertfordshire
We have been coming to North Norfolk for 26 years since our children were born. It is heaven on earth. Brancaster beach now a favourtie with Merlin for long walks and a swim. As for the food well paradise. Try Cookies Crab Shop at Salthouse, for crab baguettes to die for, go to Brancaster Staithes Seafood Shack. Lifeboat Inn at Thornham for mussels and cod in beer batter!!

Mr and Mrs R Bush
… Fantastic New Year. Thank you it really is a lovely cottage. Everything was perfect right down to the heaters being on so it was nice and warm when we arrived.
Mr B Amesbury
… Just a note to let you know we had a wondrous few days at Lovely Cottage - it's a wonderful place and the weather was glorious - heavy frosts, clear skies and hundreds of stars at night - having a good reason
to have log fires was an unbelievable bonus! Much thanks for the warm and inviting cottage.
Mrs J Haigh
… wanted to write let you know what a wonderful time we had at Lovely Cottage. Everything we needed was there - and more, and the evenings curled up in front of the log fire were memorable, especially as we had purchased a bottle of the famous Nelsons Blood earlier in the day!! . We will definately return probably in the summer to enjoy the beaches! Many thanks.
Mr A R Nelson
… apt name indeed, we had a great time (wild long windswept beaches, walking the dog, eating and drinking in local hosteries, mussels and seafood galore) Perfect. We came away refreshed. Thanks again, the cottage is the sweetest PLUS a REAL fire, yay!
