Head for a spot of sunbathing or a stroll along the wide sandy beach and enjoy the pretty painted beach huts that line the way.

Head East to Blakeney for a spot of crab lining or take a seasonal boat trip to see the seals or venture a little further to Cromer and stroll along the pier and Edwardian promenade. Or head West to Hunstanton and enjoy all the fun of the fair and explore traditional seaside attraction such as their Sealife centre.
History buffs should make time to explore the Holkham, Houghton and Sandringham Estates and nature lovers will find wildlife in abundance. In fact, the sightseeing opportunities in this part of Norfolk are too numerous to list. But the real joy will be returning to cosy Black Horse Cottage for a great night’s sleep ready for another fun-filled day ahead. What a great choice for your holiday.

A beautiful homely cottage. We had a wonderful stay here. Everything on hand that you could need to make it home from home. Lovely place to relax, close to the local shops and amusements. Only a little walk to get to them, far enough away for a peaceful stay, but close enough to not need a car during your stay as everything is withing walking distance. Can't wait to organise another trip away and enjoy this lovely place again. Thanks again for a great weekend away, we hope to stay longer next time.

Black horse cottage was lovely, great position to enjoy what Wells next the sea has to offer.Accommodation had everything you needed, a well equipped kitchen, towels, sky and even books and games.Lovely seating area at the front to relax.We parked in the long stay car park just along from the cottage, and paid for a week, we used the app but you could pay by machine as well, no problems getting a parking space from going out for the day.Hope to go back to enjoy this cottage again.
