    “We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this clean, comfortable and spacious cottage, situated in a great location for exploring the North Norfolk coast.”

    The kitchen is very well equipped with a generous supply of all essential crockery, cutlery, pots and pans etc, and incorporates a large dining table. The living room is comfortable, although the 2 sofas have deep seats, which can prove a slight issue for shorter people. The room would also benefit from an additional chair with more back support, as there is ample space. We had warm weather during our stay so cannot comment on how effective the wood burner in the living room is, but we did ...

    The kitchen is very well equipped with a generous supply of all essential crockery, cutlery, pots and pans etc, and incorporates a large dining table. The living room is comfortable, although the 2 sofas have deep seats, which can prove a slight issue for shorter people. The room would also benefit from an additional chair with more back support, as there is ample space. We had warm weather during our stay so cannot comment on how effective the wood burner in the living room is, but we did have the heating on low on a couple of occasions due to some cooler evenings, and it seemed to be very efficient. The owners had left a very comprehensive information pack, providing instructions on the cottage itself as well as very useful information about the area, recommendations for visits etc. This was most welcome (not every cottage we have stayed in has provided as much as this) Outside there is an unexpectedly long garden, with a seating area and tables. The cottage interior has a nice traditional feel to it, with modernisation clearly having been done without compromising too much of its original look and feel. The friendly village of Briston has a well-stocked local shop incorporating a butcher, bakery and general store within easy walking distance of the cottage. We thoroughly recommend this cottage for a relaxing stay in this beautiful part of Norfolk

The large village of Briston is situated in North Norfolk and offers an excellent local store, a superb butcher's shop, in addition to a pub, a pub/cafe, a fish shop selling lobster and the famous Cromer crabs, a sport playing field and a large village green. Located in a wonderfully central position, the village provides a good base from which to explore the surrounding area. The historic Georgian market town of Holt, with its tempting tea rooms and enjoyable shops, is less than five miles away, and Blakeney National Nature Reserve, with its fantastic bird spotting opportunities, less than ten miles away. Whether it’s boat trips and seal spotting around the coast, a day exploring some of the many historic towns in the area, or a day at the seaside resort of Sheringham that you’re looking for, this lovely location has lots to see and do.
