A traditional 200-year old fisherman’s cottage, this delightful property has some attractive period features including a large brick fireplace with a warming wood burner in the welcoming lounge/diner. The cosy kitchen has an authentic cottagey feel to it, whilst the two bedrooms are on the first-floor at the top of a flight of steep cottage-style stairs. To the rear of the property, a shady courtyard garden offers a pleasant place to relax over evening drinks.

Bacton is a great base for visitors to north-east Norfolk, offering an array of handy shops, as well as a pub, cafe, and fish and chip shop all of which are situated within a mile of the cottage. The village beach is just a short 200-metre stroll from the cottage, and offers plenty of sand at low tide, ideal for a gentle swim or paddle.

The bustling resort of Cromer lies 11 miles north of Bacton, passing by a collection of seaside villages with quiet beaches along the way. The Norfolk Broads are also within easy reach of Fisherman’s Cottage, with the Broadland town of Stalham situated just 6 miles away, offering boat hire as well as being home to the interesting Museum of the Broads.

Our stay at Fishermans Cottage couldnt have been any better. We had a very comfortable stay, we slept so well. We didnt want for anything in the cottage as everything had been thought of. The beach, being only a two minute walk away, is amazingly clean with such lovely soft sand that seems to go on for ever, our dog loved it. The Poachers Pocket isRead more just a five minute walk and is a very dog friendly pub, with a convenience store a bit further on. Hide

This is a lovely cosy cottage. Private sun trap garden with comfy furniture to relax in whether you have been out or just want an hour of peace. You can actually hear the sea sometimes. The bed is also very comfortable. We found we had everything we needed Very near to the lovely beach. This was our 5th stay there and we will definitely be back.

Lovely cottage really close to the beach, but this made parking a bit of an issue as it was popular with dog walkers and we often came back to find nowhere to park. The local cafe (Watson's) is well worth a visit. The two local pubs were no more than average for our taste, but The Star Inn at Lessingham was fabulous. But this is obviously subjectivRead moree.

Lovely little cottage right on the beach road. We went in January when very quiet. Small rear paved garden which is good for dog use. Steep stairs in cottage but not unexpected for size and age. Overall an enjoyable stay and well equipped kitchen. Take your own hairdryer.

We loved our stay in Fisherman's Cottage, it was cosy and well equipped. To walk along the lane on to stunning Bacton beach with the dog was an absolute dream! Top tips: Wonderful food & service at The Lighthouse Inn, Seal watching at Horsey & Winterton, breakfast at Poppylands Cafe, dog walks at Bacton Woods, best firewood from Richardsons SawmillRead more (Walsham), Ingham Farm shop for veg etc, friendly service for a drink or 3 at the Poachers Pocket a short walk (turn right) just along the beach!

The cottage is in an excellent location, with lots to see and do nearby and the proximity of Bacton beach is fantastic. We recommend a visit to Bacton woods, nearby Happisburg and the local Watsons Cafe. Other great eateries are Kingfisher Cafe for fish & chips and The Lighthouse Inn at Walcott.

The garden was wonderfully private and a real sun trap despite it being so close to the coast. Hide
