About this property

This is a lovely mid-terrace Victorian fisherman’s cottage, located on a private no-through lane and close to the sea front in the popular village of East Runton, near Cromer in North Norfolk. This attractive cottage is ideal for friends and families alike, looking to explore this wonderful coastline from a great location. Park up directly outside your cottage and step into the cosy sitting room which has a gas fire, ideal for relaxing with a movie after a day out exploring. The kitchen is located at the back of the cottage, just beyond the dining room and with a door to the back garden. There is also a family bathroom which is also located on the ground floor. Upstairs are three lovely bedrooms, the double bedroom having a TV. Outside this cosy cottage, relax in the enclosed garden, which is a real sun trap, enjoying a morning coffee while planning your day out. After a busy time exploring the area, there is nothing better than dining alfresco using the barbecue. The sea front offers cliff-edge views with wonderful coastal walks and the village itself is well-served with a convenience store, a Greek restaurant and two pubs, ideal for enjoying a meal or a drink after a day out. The cottage is just a short walk from the wonderful sandy beach, which is popular for surfers and bathers and has seasonal lifeguards. Just a short drive along the coast brings you to Cromer, which has a good variety of shops, cafés and restaurants to enjoy, and make sure you try the famous Cromer crabs, which are a must. From this attractive cottage travel along the coastal road and you can take a boat trip to visit the seals or a train ride on a steam train at nearby Sheringham. This is a lovely cottage, just along the coast from Cromer, offering excellent access to the beautiful Norfolk coast road linking wonderful villages.

    (Parking really isn’t that much of an issue, as previous people have mentioned.)Not sure how quiet it’ll be when the refurbishment of the pub opposite is done. In good area to access places to visit. Cleanliness was good, except the bathroom. Mould around edges of the bath, and the seal at the bottom of the shower screen needs removing and cleaning. Had trouble with the internet, contacted owner.. the fault was external but was sorted and resolved as soon as was possible. Over all we enjoyed our time in the cottage. Small things that could have made a difference, milk in the fridge on arrival. I had to buy kitchen cleaner and hand soap for the bathroom. Not a biggy, but the small things count

    The lounge was comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, the beds were comfortable and it had a good size bathroom. The only issues we had was no Wifi during the stay and a major issue with the lock on the front door. Even after 3 days it was a challenge we still struggled to open the door from the inside and outside... If this is fixed my rating would go up. We did have a power cut for 12 (overnight) hours whilst we were their that was problematic, however this was for the area and not just the cottage. As posative the owner did all he could to support.

    Upon entering the property there was a carbon monoxide alarm bleeping due to low batteries, it should’ve been changed in August 23 according to the label. I informed the owner who sent another which we assembled and put up, I did also mention the lock to him. The location of the property is ideal, short walk to East Runton beach which in itself is a short walk along the beach to Cromer. There are 3 pubs in the village, a convenience shop and a caravan club restaurant, although pub and restaurant are seasonal. Property set up was ideal given the size of the cottage. Found it to be mostly clean and tidy. There was no recycling information but we found a recycling point in the car park along the road to the beach. Whilst we were aware of the stair case and downstairs bathroom it’s not until you are there that you realise they really are very steep and narrow which was tricky in the middle of the night! I would think twice about a winter break here again because so much is closed, I forget that these places are seasonal!
