Really enjoyed our stay in this real, cosy, comfortable cottage. Did lots of coastal walks, had a lovely day at Felbrigg hall, and a great evening at the Cromer theatre.

Lovely peaceful little cottage, close to local amenities and places of interest to visit. My dogs enjoyed it and the little garden for morning coffee or cider! Would definitely return to Poppy cottage on future visit to Norfolk. Big THANKYOU again Angela

This little gem exceeded our expectations in every way.. Not to keen about selling its virtues as we would like it all for ourselves

We really enjoyed our stay at Poppy Cottage over the New Year break. The cottage itself is very cute with lots of character features throughout and although small, is very well equipped with everything you need for a home away from home. The dedicated cottage garden is a short walk away and provided a great space for an early morning stroll with thRead moree dogs, and in the warmer months I'm sure we would have used the area more. The local area is also lovely, Holt is just up the road and offers a variety of independent shops, cafe's and restaurants and the beautiful north Norfolk coast is within easy reach. We really enjoyed a New Year's day walk on Brancaster beach, a perfect start to the New Year for both us and the dogs (Mouse and Beau). We also had a very friendly welcome and good food at the Red Hart in Bodham. Thanks again for a lovely stay. Hide

Lovely cottage with everything you need. It has a lovely private garden a very short distance from the property which was very well used throughout our stay. Bedrooms upstairs are joined, so best for very close friends or family and bathroom is on the ground floor.
