Norfolk Cottages | Norfolk Holiday Cottages

Holiday cottages in Norfolk

Discover 100 miles of wild coastline, the rippling channels of The Broads, Dark Sky Reserves, seaside towns and basking seal colonies from our collection of Norfolk cottages, B&Bs, hotels and pubs with rooms.

Despite having stunning beaches, picturesque villages and the unique marshland and woodlands of The Broads, Norfolk still remains one of the UK’s hidden gems. In a single day you can experience a misty morning in the wetlands, the history and grandeur of Norwich cathedral and the sun setting on the sea, with none of the crowds of more famous destinations.

We choose our places to stay for the personality and passion they’ve been created with, inspecting every one to make sure it gives you a real feel for the diversity and character of Norfolk.

Why we love Norfolk

The vast open space and peacefulness of the place is infectious and instantly calming
Lack of built-up areas mean you can sometimes see the Milky Way from either of two Dark Sky reserves, Kelling Heath and Wiveton Downs
There are miles of walking trails, including the coastal path and Peddlar’s Way, popular but rarely crowded
An independent spirit is evident in a network of farms, fishermen, growers, shops, cafés and restaurants all over the county
Landscape as diverse as the peaceful Broads, scattered sandbars and the colourful cliffs of Hunstanton.

Great things to do in Norfolk

Walk from Cley to Blakeney Point to see both grey and common seals (boat trips are available, but the walk offers the chance of a closer encounter)
Drift past the windmills of The Broads in a canoe, from one of the many starting points all through the area
Forage for wonderfully salty samphire (local pronunciation Sam-fur) at Stiffkey. Pinch off the tops rather than pulling the roots, to ensure regrowth
Visit Oxburgh Hall, the 15th-century mansion squeezed perfectly onto its tiny moated island
Go crabbing off the old pier at Cromer (or sample the catch at a local café).
