The Cottage Manor

This rural retreat is a cosy family-friendly cottage on the Norfolk Coast. Outside, there is plenty of charm, especially with a front and back garden to sip wine on summer evenings. The interior is inviting but minimal, with a farmhouse-style kitchen, breakfast bar, and two dishwashers to make clear-ups effortless after a barbecue. When it comes to location, the Southrepps Nature Reserve is great for birdwatching, and Trimingham Beach is around ten minutes by car.
