This wonderful country house is situated on the southern end of Cley-next-the-Sea, a charming village famous for its salt marshes and nature reserve with fantastic bird-watching opportunities. The village has some excellent amenities, including pubs, deli, book shop, smokehouse, pottery and landmark windmill. You can pick up the coastal path from the village or catch the Coasthopper bus service and take a ride to the other lovely villages along the coast. Head to Blakeney or Morston (less than 3 miles away) and book a boat trip to see England’s largest grey seal colony at Blakeney Point. Visit beautiful Wells-next-the-Sea (9 miles) for glorious walks through the pine forest down onto the white sandy beach decorated with colourful beach huts, or sample traditional fish and chips on the front. The beautiful Georgian market town of Holt (3 miles) is a popular shopping destination with its antique shops, boutiques and art galleries.


This stylish retreat will appeal to multi-generational family groups and friends who are looking for a quiet location and want a comfortable base from which to explore this lovely part of North Norfolk at any time of year. Entering the house via the front door, you are welcomed into a bright entrance hallway where a return staircase leads up to the first floor. Continue through into the wonderfully spacious kitchen/diner with patio doors opening onto the garden and rolling fields beyond. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything the designated chef needs to whip up a delicious meal to be enjoyed around the large dining table. The snug adjoins where guests can escape for some quiet reading or younger members of the group can play games and watch their favourite series on the Smart TV. There is another set of patio doors which lead out onto the patio area at the side of the property. The larger sitting room offers a welcoming space to gather and cosy around the wood burner in the cooler months or in the warmer months open the patio doors and let the fresh air flood in. A cloakroom completes this floor with a washing machine and tumble dryer. Head on up to the first floor where you’ll find four tastefully furnished bedrooms, each individually styled and boasting quality, low allergy mattresses and bedding to ensure a good night’s rest.

The wooden garage can be used to store bikes or hang wetsuits to dry. Dine alfresco catching the midday and evening sun on the two stone patios.

Lovely, very comfy and spacious house in quiet location in unspoilt area of north Norfolk coast. Plenty to see and do in the area, and good pubs, restaurants and delicious local fish. Will certainly return as a week not long enough!

The house is beautiful. Great for a 3 generational holiday, as we all had our own space too. It was spotlessly clean with very comfy beds. We love Cley as a location and it was nice to be able to walk into the village in 15 mins but also be so peaceful and not see any other houses, just the field. Lovely.

Wonderful property, very comfortable and well equipped in idyllic rural setting, not far from a lovely local pub and the village of Cley. Perfect for a group family holiday.

Beautiful house with private and tranquil surroundings. Very comfortable, clean and well equipped. We have been to Norfolk almost every year since 1998 and this is the best property to date for us. Great place to relax and good position for exploring North Norfolk.
