Barry September 2023

“Fab cottage in a good location.”

Lovely and clean and we were left a little welcome gift on our arrival. Had an issue with a smoke alarm whilst there messaged the property manager and it was fixed that day. The stairs in this property are very steep so beware if you have older guests in your party. Overall we enjoyed our time at Fern Cottage

- Barry, September 2023
Carol September 2023

“We love Fern Cottage ,unfortunately we had to leave early .”

We cannot fault anything. We packed in a hurry and left a couple of things behind but Housekeeper sent them to us and we received them the next day,what brilliant service that is. I cannot praise it enough would thoroughly recommend Fern Cottage

- Carol, September 2023
Catherine September 2023

“We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday stay at Fearn cottage.”

It was fully equipped with everything we needed and nearby a small Tesco, pubs and within easy reach of the lovely shingle beaches. The only problem was the very steep staircase which had to be climbed with some difficulty. This however was mentioned in the itinerary. A valuable suggestion would be for a downstairs loo. This would save having to go up the stairs each time and would also be beneficial if there are several people staying at Fearn cottage.

Peter August 2023

“Beautiful, spacious cottage in the lovely seaside village of Heacham.”

Perfect location within easy reach to popular sights. Property was clean, had all the amenities, and more than enough space for our family with teens. Would definitely stay here again.

Gill March 2023

“This is our second visit to fern cottage as we loved it soo much.”

Having two dogs I love that the garden is secure and we can let them out into the garden without worrying. The area is lovely and we can walk to several pubs or travel several miles to find yet more fabulous beaches, Sandringham or good food pubs. The cottage is beautifully maintained and was ready for us on our arrival.

- Gill, March 2023

Rachel January 2023

“A very welcoming and comfortable cottage.”

Lovely and warm when we arrived, very well presented with some nice touches such as the flowers, cookies and bottle of wine waiting for us. Everything you could possibly need provided - we didn't feel like we were missing anything. The cottage was like a tardis, there were 6 of us and we never felt crowded. Thank you for a great weekend away, would love to come again.

- Rachel, January 2023
Susan December 2022

“Perfect choice for our New Year break,cottage very comfortable had everything you could need.”

If I was being very picky a second toilet would be nice but did not spoil our enjoyment at all

- Susan, December 2022
Alexandria December 2022

“3rd stay at Fern Cottage, Heacham 3 out of 6 of the party were just about well enough after coming down with Flu.”

The 3 remaining eldery guest could not travel. Lovely home from home. Would not book through Sykes cottages anymore after a dreadful experience with insurance sold through their website that Sykes will not accept any help with when needing help. The insurance company will not reply to your queries for 6 weeks... and Sykes will not refund any monies if your party become ill and cannot travel due to illness. FERN COTTAGE IS PERFECT!!!! BUT I AM NOT IMPRESSED WITH YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE SYKES COTTAGES AND WILL NOT BE USING YOU AGAIN.

- Alexandria, December 2022

- Paula, November 2022
Fiona November 2022

“The cottage was great and met all of our needs.”

It was very clean and cosy. The only issue was the outside light kept coming on all night-we were concerned about the electricity bill for the owner!

- Fiona, November 2022
Chris October 2022

“Lovely, characterful cottage with everything you could need for a relaxing holiday.”

This was our first time in Norfolk and we found the cottage a great base to explore the local area with lots of helpful information provided on places to eat, visit etc. (including identifying dog friendly places, which was really useful for us.)

- Chris, October 2022
Peter September 2022

“Wonderful property.”

Heacham was a lovely quiet seaside village. Beaches were excellent

- Peter, September 2022
Georgina August 2022

“Very comfortable holiday house, great base for the area.”

Summer house area pleasant to read and enjoy a beer.. The low pressure of water in the shower is a bit of a problem when showering but we appreciate this is difficult to get on top of.Would definitely reccomend this place to friends and family.

- Georgina, August 2022
Victoria August 2022

“Beautiful property well cared for.”

The furniture and fittings are lovely. Loved all the pictures and beach references. Really enjoyed relaxing in the lounge. The beds were super comfortable and my eldest son loved having the double room at the top of the house. Everything we needed and would definitely come back. We didn’t find parking an issue at all and could easily park outside the property. The garden is secure and that was reassuring with our dog. Loved the summer house too. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

- Victoria, August 2022
Julie July 2022

“Lovely, clean and comfy cottage, great area and base to explore North Norfolk.”

We were a family of five plus dog which included 3 teens (19, 17 & 14). Could have done with a downstairs loo but other than that was well equipped. Dog was very settled there.

- Julie, July 2022
Alan July 2022

- Alan, July 2022
Dorothy June 2022

“Lovely cottage, very comfortable,plenty of room and very nice little garden with a patio and summer house.”

The DogOtel in Harpley do day care which was very useful when we wanted to visit a National Trust property.

- Dorothy, June 2022
Helen May 2022

“Really nice cottage, very clean and well looked after.”

Near to all the local amenities . My only issue was that for a three bedroom cottage we struggled to fit 4 people and a dog in the downstairs space, particularly the lounge , as it felt a bit cramped.

- Helen, May 2022
Heather April 2022

“Fern cottage was comfortable, clean and very well presented.”

We had a wonderful stay and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Heacham was a really friendly, and many locals gave tips and suggestions for where to go and when. Will definitely be back, thank you.

- Heather, April 2022
Gill March 2022

“Beautiful cottage within easy reach of the town and walking distance to the beach and the local pubs.”

Parking was on road but wasn’t a problem. Definitely one of the better ones we have booked.

- Gill, March 2022
Zoe March 2022

“We had a lovely stay at fern cottage, spacious, clean and tidy with everything we needed.”

- Zoe, March 2022
Nigel March 2022

“The cold water main in to the house, your told its a problem all over Heacham but it’s not as we have friends who have properties all over Heacham and they do not have the same problem.”

As a plumber I believe it to be a shared water main between the 4/5 properties in the row, it needs its own incoming main

- Nigel, March 2022
Michelle January 2022

“Lovely cottage, plenty of room for a big family or even two families.”

Clean, well equipped and nicely decorated. We stayed here for a month and felt at home. Heacham is a great village too and has a lot of local amenities.

- Michelle, January 2022

- Ann, August 2021
Ian August 2021

“Fantastic stay beds were very comfy and in a very quiet area.”

Towels were very helpful less to pack on our journey! Everything we needed in the house/kitchen. Parking was a worry before hand but always had a space outside. House was walking distance to supermarket, pub and beach. We had a great stay at Fern Cottage.

- Ian, August 2021
Tim June 2021

Audra August 2020

“Very clean cottage in a quiet road with local amenities and beach all in walking distance.”

Cottage had a lovely little garden which was dog friendly we had everything there we needed for a lovely relaxing stay .

- Audra, August 2020
Marie August 2020

“I have mostly good reviews regarding the cottage.”

I was pleased with the facilities this cottage offered and it was in a perfect position for visiting other areas. I was disappointed that there is no wardrobe space available, not all visitors live out of a suitcase or draw. The two single beds need updating as they are just a double bedbase separated,and one of them someone had tried to repair.

- Marie, August 2020
Steve July 2020

“A fantastic cottage with all you need, a great outdoor area and summer house for dining and chilling out.”

Location is very quiet and a 20 minute walk to the sea, we recommend you go there for the sunset! Parking can be a minor issue but other than that I can fully recommend this cottage.

- Steve, July 2020
Philippa July 2020

“Lovely cottage really doggy friendly it had everything we needed and more.”

We borrowed the crabbing buckets for our trip to Wells. It is booked already for the next break we were wanting which shows that it is really popular

- Philippa, July 2020
Tracy March 2020

“Fab fab fab.”

....... What a wonderful dog friendly cottage. Very clean and cozy. We have all had a FAB week which was most needed. We have all enjoyed the open fire on an evening with a glass of wine or two or three..... Thank you Sue & Paul for the wine and flowers such a lovely touch. Fern Cottage was like home from home. Best dog friendly cottage we have stayed in and we will be returning very soon. THANKS AGAIN TRACY MARTIN & BUDDY

- Tracy, March 2020
Roy February 2020

“The cottage is advertised with off street parking which is very hard to get a car in and you would be blocked in when Neighbours park their cars.”

Therefore we parked on the road outside the cottage.

- Roy, February 2020
Julie February 2020

“This cottage was lovely clean and cosy with no “damp musty smells” which we have encountered on many other self catering holidays.”

The garden was very secure which is important when you take a dog.A lovely break .

Sarah December 2019

“Beautiful cottage.”

Lovely touch of having Christmas decorations up. We loved our stay here

- Sarah, December 2019
John December 2019

“We had a fantastic Christmas staying in Fern Cottage.”

The house was very clean and cosy and well equipped for five people and our dog Lucy. It’s ideally located close to take aways, a well stocked Tesco Express and it’s only a 15 minute walk to the beach. The welcome bottle of wine, biscuits, tree with decorations were a thoughtful gesture. We would totally recommend this cottage to anyone else!

- John, December 2019
Katie December 2019

“We stayed in Fern Cottage in December.”

It’s a lovely Warm cozy cottage, close to local shops and a 15 minute walk to the beach. Its toddler and dog friendly with the stairs hidden away behind a door which was really helpful (the stairs are quite steep but have good handrails). Plenty of cooking pots etc DVD’s and games, we felt really at home there. I’d highly recommend a stay and am sure we’ll be back!

- Katie, December 2019
Tracey November 2019

“Had a fantastic weekend catch up with some girlfriends.”

The accommodation was spotlessly clean, very well equipped, cosy and perfectly situated for a weekend near the sea and amenities. Bottle of wine and fresh flowers on arrival, the little extra’s that make a big difference. Can’t wait to go back.

- Tracey, November 2019

Very comfortable and well equipped cottage in an ideal area for visiting a variety of stunning local beaches and other destinations

Susan September 2019

“This was our second visit to Fern Cottage, and everything was as good as before, even to the fact that bowls, towels etc are provided for the dogs.”

All the furnishings are comfortable and the kitchen equipment is plentiful and of good quality. And as for the cleanliness, it is outstanding!

- Susan, September 2019
Gill September 2019

“Lovely clean, bright, comfortable, welcoming, well equipped.”

Real home from home and the dog wasn't forgotten, with treats, spare bed, lead etc. etc. Lovely quiet area, bit of a walk to the beach but not a problem. Miles of clean beaches and endless skies, ideal for dog walks and nature lovers alike. Can walk to Hunstanton along the beach, have a snack and walk back with the wind in your face and the tide coming in. Lovely off season break!

- Gill, September 2019
Raymond August 2019

“We were so pleased on arrival at Fern Cottage, and immediately spread around the 3 floors to check out facilities, beds, the kitchen, and garden (as you do).”

We were 3 adults and 2 children (9 and 13). The older immediately found the TV game where he could play tennis, and both worked out quickly the means of using the Internet. The large front room was well adequate for the family to enjoy their interests, and with the dining room, more games could be set up on a big table. The smart bathroom was well adequate for our age groups to use, The delightful kitchen had all we needed to make our own meals , and in the village (town?) there were well enough shops to provide for our regular needs. The book completed by earlier tenants was well enough completed to provide outside public houses for eating out.And a range of places to visit. All in all the week was delightful plus sunny everyday - the dog really enjoyed his walks in strange streets. And with comfortable accommodation to receive each evening, we were well pleased. Certainly well recommended.

- Raymond, August 2019
Margaret June 2019

“Sadly we were unable to find the visitors book to record how much we had enjoyed staying in their cottage.”

There maybe one possible improvement in that small blinds be fitted over the two small windows in the roof room. With good weather the sun came streaming in at 5 a.m so whilst it disturbed the regular pattern of sleep it also was very warm on the face when waking. wouldn't even class this as a complaint but merely a suggestion. The cottage was beautiful and a credit to the owners.

- Margaret, June 2019
Chloe May 2019

“A lovely clean cottage, a great base to see Norfolk beaches.”

Outside space was nicely done even though it’s not a garden.The parking and stairs in the house may cause some people issues. Parking is on the road if you can get a space unless you can reverse into the outside space so then you lose your outdoor area.Stairs are very steep so might not be safe for some people with mobility issues. Well equipped for family and dogs.Also well decorated-I even hunted down where the pictures on the walls where bought from and purchased some!

- Chloe, May 2019
Jan May 2019

“Parking at the back of the property was not possible, but we had no problems parking on the road opposite.”

The twenty minute walk to the beach to watch the sun set is worth it.

- Jan, May 2019
Susan April 2019

“This was our second visit to Fern Cottage, as we had such an enjoyable time here last year.”

The cottage is comfortable, cosy and well equipped and it was a safe place for our almost 3 year old grandson. We plan to explore more of Norfolk next year and may choose a different area to stay, but we shall definitely look at using Sykes again to find a suitable holiday home as we trust the properties to be carefully chosen for their amenities and quality .

- Susan, April 2019
Phillippa March 2019

“Lovely property which was well equipped for all our needs.”

Great for exploring Norfolk.

- Phillippa, March 2019
Stephen March 2019

“The cleanest and best kept cottage we have stayed in to date Close to shops and a few minutes from the beach Superb”

- Stephen, March 2019
Jennie March 2019

“The cottage was lovely, as described excepting parking.”

Off road parking is a bit hopeful, maybe a Smart car or very small hatch and then you lose the garden space somewhat. Also the house next door actually has a designated space and if they parked there you would be lucky to get back out!! It didn't bother us that parking was roadside and on a first come first served basis as to how near but potentially it could annoy some clients. That is just a comment and did not detract at all from our enjoyment of Fern Cottage, the village and the surrounding area.

- Jennie, March 2019
Nicola February 2019

“Beautifully decorated and clean property.”

Parking was hard, we found a space quite far from the property but there is not much that can be done as this is the style of the street. I had to chase Sykes cottages on the day of arrival to get the keycode details for the property which wasn't good. The cottage was excellent and very comfortable, would definitely stay again.

- Nicola, February 2019
Julie January 2019

“Wow! What a delightful cottage!”

Nicely modernised but with respect for the lovely character of the property. Very comfortable beds, quiet location but handy for seafront strolls and the centre of the village. Charming decorative touches, too (the wooden seabirds narrowly escaped coming home with me!). Always so nice to find a shower AND a bath - and a real bonus was the open fire (with starter logs provided). Hope to come again. Thanks for a great stay.

- Julie, January 2019
Joan January 2019

“Superb time couldn’t ask for more”

- Joan, January 2019
Alan January 2019

“Beautiful Norfolk beaches and the welcome given to dogs on the beaches were memorable aspects of our stay.”

Fern Cottage was also situated in a most convenient spot for short walks to all of the facilities in Heacham village, from baker and butcher to pubs and takeaway food outlets.

- Alan, January 2019
Elizabeth December 2018

- Jason, December 2018
Tabitha December 2018

“Fabulous cottage in the heart of a lovely village.”

It felt like a home from home, plus the bed was super comfy! Shops, cafes, pubs and takeaways all within walking distance. Plus the beaches were 5 minutes away. Thoroughly recommend this little gem.

- Tabitha, December 2018
John November 2018

“Excellent location and in a superb country village.”

We’ve just spent 3 nights at this wonderful property - caters to everyone’s needs. We felt right at home here, certainly visit again.

- Allison, October 2018
Susan September 2018

“We all loved the cottage and the surrounding area.”

The cottage was very clean, and all that we needed was provided, and was of good quality, even to the towels etc for the dogs! We also found the cottage was ideally situated to visit that area of Norfolk, including Holkham beach, which our dogs love. We are looking forward to a return visit in 2019.

- Susan, September 2018
Kay September 2018

Thoroughly enjoyable lovely cottage ( one of the best we have stayed in ) we would definitely return,coastal towns close by,only critic would be no local restaurant for evenings

- David, September 2018
Tracy August 2018

“Lovely cottage in a nice area , dog friendly.”

Lovely decorated beautiful summer house , unfortunately the dishwasher broke during our stay and couldn’t be fixed until the day we departed. Sofas in the lounge could do with replacing very soft and uncomfortable. Enjoyed our stay over all.

- Tracy, August 2018
Susan April 2018

“We were very unlucky with the weather for the most part of our week’s holiday, so it was lovely to return to our cottage which was warm, homely and very comfortable after days out in the bleak cold of Norfolk.”

The kitchen was very well equipped, which was a great help as we had our toddler grandson with us and so needed to eat in each evening. The beds were extremely comfortable too and the only disappointment was that the poor weather prevented us from making use of the garden and summerhouse as much as we would have liked. It is a very convenient location for exploring this lovely part of the country.

- Susan, April 2018
Claire March 2018

“Fabulous accommodation, beautifully appointed.”

Comfortable throughout. Immediately settled into a relaxing break. Would recommend Fern Cottage and would stay there again.

- Claire, March 2018
Sue March 2018

“Fern Cottage was a lovely holiday base for our short break in March 2018.”

The cottage was decorated beautifully, warm and cosy and had everything we needed. The outside space was also fully equipped and safe for small and large dogs alike. The cottage is close to the beach, and you can walk to Hunstanton via the promenade which is suitable for pushchair. It has shops, pubs and food takeaways within walking distance and is a very pleasant area to stay. The on road parking was the biggest issue as the roads are narrow and you can only use the back garden for parking if the access is clear. In the height of Summer this could be a problem, but for out of season it worked well for us. We will be definitely booking again, a great cottage and good position for exploring the Norfolk coast - there are some great places to eat and out of season easy to get in without booking. A fabulous dog friendly cottage well worth visiting.

- Sue, March 2018
Kate February 2018

“Paul and Sue were brilliant and we can’t thank them enough.”

We decided to get married while we were on holiday and had a few things to check out with them and they were great with helping out. The house is immaculate and lovely and cosy (bring slippers though as the kitchen floor is a bit nippy). We will definitely be going back to this house m. We love Norfolk and being in Heacham means that we can explore the coast.

About the location

HEACHAM

Hunstanton 2.5 miles; King's Lynn 15 miles.

Heacham is a large village located on the West Norfolk coastline, on The Wash, boasting a lovely family friendly sandy beach, ideal for jet skis, kitesurfing and windsurfing. The village has many cottages built from Carstone, which is a feature of this part of Norfolk, and also offers a good range of shops, restaurants and country pubs. Within walking distance is Caley Hall, home to Norfolk Lavender with its sweet smelling lavender fields, and Heacham Hall, owned by John Rolfe, who brought his young bride Pocahontas to England to live at the hall (in the local church of St Mary you will find a memorial to her). This part of Norfolk is renowned for its abundance of birdlife throughout the year, with several local RSPB sites, while within easy driving distance is Pensthorpe Nature Reserve and Gardens, as seen on BBC's Springwatch. Nearby Hunstanton offers traditional seaside entertainment including a sealife centre, while The Queen's Sandringham Estate is just a 15 minute drive.
