The Experience

These beautiful old cottages (once a cartshed) stand all in a row near a duck pond and magnificent Sharrington Hall. The largest cottages are Shell, its colours a soothing blend of oyster, silver and taupe and Sky, a symphony of blues, lavenders and greys, both dog friendly. The smallest is Seal, all muted greys and driftwood touches; with a charcoal grey roll-top by a dove grey four-poster, it is very romantic. Samphire’s palette reflects Norfolk’s marshes.

Each cottage has immaculate white towels, a roll-top tub, REN lotions and a log-burner, and all (bar Samphire) a bathroom for every room. Oak or painted floorboards are topped with rugs, custom-made kitchens have large range cookers, coir carpeted stairs lead to walk-in showers and delicious crisp beds.

The setting is brilliant, half a mile from an award-winning deli and close to beaches.

Reviews

The Cartshed Cottages are a special find. They are nestled in the quiet and beautiful village of Sharrington, with convenient access to the town of Holt, and the expansive coastal villages of Blakeney and Salthouse, amongst many others! Katie and Steve are very welcoming and I have no doubt that once you've stayed here, you'll be booking a return visit!

Linda

We stayed at Samphire Cottage in November 2013. Lovely! - beautiful surroundings, and our welcoming wine and Kettle Chips were a very thoughtful touch. Katie and Steve pay attention to detail – everything sparkling clean, with comfortable beds and complimentary towels too, and plenty of logs for the wood burner. Many places of interest nearby, and good eateries as well – our meal at the Old Forge seafood restaurant at Thursford, was excellent (but booking is essential). Whatever the weather, we’d recommend Cartshed Cottages to anyone who likes to relax in a calm and restful atmosphere.


Nicola

Had an absolutely wonderful long weekend at Seal cottage. Weather was windy and wet ie Norfolk October but Steve and Katie made us feel very welcome and the cottage was beautifully appointed. Handbuilt kitchens, REN toileteries, lovely roll top bath and wet room. Delightful touches to welcome us to the cottage and a brilliant "bible" of local info and eateries etc from Steve and Katie. Super chic decoration to come back to from windy walks on the beach to a cosy woodburner. Romantic, urban chic combined with country cottage - perfect. Highly recommended.


Michael

This was our second stay, and this time we brought the whole family, hiring three of the four cottages for a birthday celebration. We had three generations and two continents represented in our group but there was complete consensus - this really is a perfect place to get away. The wonderful weather played its part, but the chic designs of the cottages and the sense of luxury contributed immeasurably to a memorable long weekend.


Jerome

Fabulous cottage in the grounds of a Jacobean Mansion; all beautifully restored and decorated in impecccable taste by Katie and Steve. They are solicitous hosts who even texted us the day before arrival with a weather report. A welcome pack of the local Sharrington strawberries and a lovely bottle of wine made us feel at home. We stayed in Seal cottage , warm and cosy, perfect for a relaxing break. we were ten minutes from the coast at Blakeney and the endless skies of Norfolk beaches. Bliss. Lots of interesting places to visit if you can bear to leave the hypnotic power of the coast.


Location

The neighbourhood

You're in the quiet village of Sharrington, just two minutes from the A148 and also with easy access to Blakeney, Salthouse and Weybourne. There's a farm shop and café nearby and in summer you can pick your own strawberries, or pack up a picnic and head to Holkham - just 11 miles. Restaurants, galleries and antique shops abound as well as wonderful walking and cycling - not too many hills either.

Local points of interest from Katie Bassford King

  • Coastal heaven – expanses of sandy beaches at Holkham and Brancaster, miles of marshy horizons at Blakeney and Salthouse, classic clifftop walks at Weybourne and Overstrand, all under big, big skies.
  • Shopping in the boutiques, galleries and antique shops of Holt and Burnham Market. Discover designer must-haves, locally made art and craft or vintage bargains.
  • Culture fix at historic National Trust properties, Blickling and Felbrigg Halls. Experience the Palladian splendours of stately Houghton Hall or Holkham Hall. Brush with the Royals at Sandringham.
  • Seal trips to Blakeney Point from Morston, a seafood snack, a marshland walk, then the local deli for a home-cooked meal by the log burner. Local strawberries and cream at the end of the lane!
  • Local eateries abound: farm cafes and delis, oyster caravans, seafood shacks, fish'n'chips, smokehouses, coffee vans, gourmet pubs and even a Michelin star. And a decent flat white if you know where to go!
  • Seasonal art exhibitions and installations. Artist ‘Open Studios’. Outdoor music concerts, literary and arts festivals, village fetes, pier shows …

Introducing

Katie Bassford King

Katie and Steve left London in 2010 to buy the rather run-down Hall which they then restored, along with the cartshed. Katie is an interior designer and takes delight in making the places stunning. She has a grand eye for details and the muted colours that reflect the Norfolk countryside. They like to welcome all guests and will also be around to say goodbye.
