A perfect family long weekend
We stayed in Creek Cottage with our family foe a birthday celebration. The layout worked well for a group of 7 adults, with one room unused. The walks from the cottage are endless and the cottage provided a cool retreat from the hottest weather ever.

The location can't be matched, gorgeous views over the marshes and big skies The house is warm and inviting and well equipped with two alternative sitting areas. We had many wonderful meals Round the kitchen table. The kitchen was well equipped and enough refrigerator space for our large load of groceries. We met the owner who came over to welcome us.

Lovely Cottage in a great location
Stayed at the cottage to attend our Son’s wedding. Great location with lovely views and easy access to a choice of larger towns for food and drink. Large Tesco at Sheringham, easy drive and parking. Local pub, (The Dun Cow) a short walk away, very friendly. The owner (Val) came to see us when we arrived to make sure we had everything and made us feel very welcome. Visited Wells-next-the-Sea, Holkham Hall and Cley Windmill. Would recommend the cottage for a family wanting to explore Norfolk.

Cosy home, perfect for family share
As two couples with 4 children under 4 years, we found this well laid out cottage to be the perfect setup for multiple families holidaying together. The property is well proportioned and the en suites gave were very convenient for getting all the kids to bed on time. The house is well located for trips to nearby landmarks and beaches - Holkham, Walsingham, Binham and Cromer attractions all within easy reach. Val was a welcoming hostess, leaving a lovely greeting note along with some groceries and treats for us to enjoy. My only regret is that we didn’t book for longer!

Salthouse
The property as exactly as we anticipated. It was very clean and everything worked as it should. There was plenty of kitchen ware which for 7 of us is important and the available space worked well. Bedrooms worked well and everyone felt at home. Rules for COVID were clear and I hope we did our bit in this regard.

Great escape!
We all love North Norfolk and were really looking forward our family get together. We were not disappointed! Creek Cottage is in a wonderful location overlooking the marshes. It is very comfortable and had everything we needed. It was especially nice to meet Val (at a reasonable social distance!). The personal touch makes all the difference. We hope to return in the not too distant future.
