Harvey Cottage - a self catering cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Harvey Cottage is a very high standard cottage with loads of charm & character and located in a sought after village just some 8 miles away from the coast, ideal for young families looking for space, a good sized garden, easy car parking and lots of attractions nearby for the children.

Away from the congestion of the coast but an easy drive to large sandy beaches at Wells next the sea for family days out by the sea.

The interior is presented to a very high standard, offering delightful rooms. There is a good sized living room with beamed ceiling and wood burner and there is a separate dining room, fitted kitchen with appliances, two double bedrooms (1 Double Bed with king size bed & 2 Single Beds), and one bathroom and one separate shower room.

Lovely place to stay
Loved this cottage sad to leave. My only negatives are we found the mattress a bit soft but this is all a personal preference thing and could do with some space to put your own food in the kitchen. Thankyou for sharing a wonderful place

Beautiful Cottage
Wonderful cottage, excellent facilities, very comfortable beds and lots of character. Bathrooms are fitted to a very high quality, my daughter loved the full body shower jets. Lovely quiet village with some excellent restaurants less than a 5 minute drive away. Will definitely look to book again.

Our stay
We were very fortunate with the weather. This was our second stay at Harvey cottage. We really like the peace and comfort of the cottage. There is a welcome pack of wine and goodies which is a nice touch. It is in a good location for visiting the coast as well as the countryside. Hopefully, we will return a third time next year.

A lot better than it looks.
We booked last min and if I’m honest I wasn’t excited. but as soon as we walked through the door we were blown away. Decorated really well with high quality furniture and nice touches all round. Great location to see the best of the Norfolk coast. We left really pleased with our stay and it’s not often I’d say it but would definitely come back. Highly recommend

Our review
It took us a little while to find the property. What 3 words helped find it. The cottage is lovely. It was well equipped and the welcome pack and information book were appreciated. The appliances were a little difficult to operate, particularly the coffee machine as that had no manual and seemed to leak. Parking was easy as the cottage has it's own parking area off road. Would be happy to return.

My review for Harvy Cottage.
Harvy Cottage is a great location if you want peace and quiet.Easy to get to other places in Norfolk.We had a lovely 3days stay even though the weather was not great.Everything we needed at the cottage.Found the induction hob hard to use.Beds very comfortable and lovely bathrooms.Just one fault with the cottage floors and carpets could do with a good clean.Front door was very stiff to open and close.Look forward to staying there again. Kind regards Fiona Ruhl.

Cosy dog friendly cottage.
We recently stayed at Harveys cottage and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The location was fantastic, and being dog-friendly was a huge plus for us. The cottage had a comfortable and homely atmosphere, making it easy to relax. However, there were a couple of issues that slightly dampened our stay. Despite requesting the bed arrangements prior to our visit, our request wasn't honored. This was a bit disappointing as it affected our comfort during the stay. Additionally, we noticed that cleanliness could have been improved. There were quite a few spider webs around, and it seemed like attention to detail in cleaning could have been better, as some items were simply cleaned around rather than being picked up leaving a lot of dust everywhere. Despite these minor setbacks, we still had a good time at the cottage. With a bit more attention to detail and ensuring requests are met, it could be an even better experience for future guests.

Disappointing
The cottage was well equipped and ideally situated to explore North Norfolk. However, having rented dozens of holiday cottages, we were disappointed with some aspects of the property. The level of cleanliness was poor. There was a messy drip of toothpaste down the cupboard door in the upstairs bathroom and the loo in there smelled of urine. Cobwebs in corners, grubby skirting boards and dust bunnies around the legs of the dining room chairs and I doubt the dining room floor had been mopped in a while. The towels provided were well past their prime - thin and greyed. We won’t be returning.

Mixed message
Instructions on finding the property could have been clearer. In the first 24 hrs we had a problem with a flies nest and the bath plug. Jamie was amazing and dealt with both quickly and efficiently, but the flies did appear again throughout the stay which was off putting (more than you would expect in the country). Welcome pack was great but a focus on local products would have been welcomed. Great location and easy access to all local sites. Beautiful furnished but could do with a grab rail in upstairs bathroom as the steps are dangerous. Could have also used some cleaning equipment, mop etc to clean the floor. Back door I found impossible to open as the bottom door was warped and needs some attention. Kitchen well equipped and only missing item were scales. We had extreme heat when we were there so a fan would help. All in all a good stay in comfortable surroundings.

Excellent but complicated appliances
Stay spoilt by electric hob not working after first day. Hand written instructions implying it was complicated proved true. When switching on, all lights flashed 10 times then went out so unable to turn on any ring. Microwave also more complicated than necessary. Could only run it in bursts of 30 seconds. No instruction Manual. TV should be removed from bedroom as there is no adequate signal despite aerial booster. Money wasted on top of the range appliances that are too complex to master in a few days stay. Cooker extractor hood did not work either.
