About our holiday cottages in Norfolk
What’s the best time to visit Norfolk?
Norfolk is beautiful year-round, but late spring to early autumn (May–September) brings milder weather, longer light and vibrant coastal wildlife. The famous Norfolk Lavender blooms in June, perfect for countryside strolls, while winter offers quiet beaches, roaring pub fires, and crisp skies ideal for stargazing and storm watching.
Are Norfolk cottages dog-friendly?
Yes, many Sawday’s Norfolk cottages welcome dogs, often with enclosed gardens, nearby dog-safe beaches, and countryside walks. Whether it’s muddy strolls along the Brecks, marshland rambles on the East coast path, or misty morning runs through pine forests, you and your canine companion can explore together before warming up by the fire.
What type of holiday cottages are available in Norfolk?
From renovated barns and converted breweries to beachside flats and eco pods, Norfolk offers a diverse range of cottage experiences. Whether you’re seeking a family retreat with play space and local guides, a romantic hideaway with sea views, or a quirky self-catering stay just footsteps from the sand, there’s something to suit every taste and group size.
Can Norfolk be enjoyed with children?
Absolutely, Norfolk is a playground for kids. Many cottages are child-friendly with secure gardens and nearby attractions like wildlife parks, family beaches, seal spotting boat trips and farm cafés. Spend your days building sandcastles, cycling the coastal routes, or spotting puffins and seals, then retreat to a cosy home-from-home for bedtime stories and restful sleep.
