  • A delightful holiday cottage set in a tranquil village, ideally situated just a few miles from the Norfolk coast
  • Close to the fantastic nature reserves at Blakeney and Cley,  an ideal holiday base for walkers, birdwatchers and nature-lovers
  • Take a boat trip to see the resident colony of grey seals
Property code: NCC68

Originally two separate farm cottages, a sensitive renovation has brought quality and charm to this delightful higgledy-piggledy three-bedroomed property in the heart of the village of Stiffkey, just a mile from the North Norfolk coast. A traditional farmhouse feel runs throughout the cottage and a cosy sitting room with wood burner and exposed beams gives a real home-from-home feeling. The enclosed walled garden and pretty front patio with rural views provide the ideal place to have a morning coffee or al fresco lunch on warmer days.

Take a stroll down to the village shop, only half a mile away, to stock up with essential provisions. The pub is under a mile away and perfectly positioned for walking off that Sunday roast! For longer walks, there are lots of coastal and inland walks nearby, with the salt marshes and Blakeney National Nature Reserve and their wide range of birds and plant life the highlight of any trip to the area.

If walking is not your thing, take a seal trip out to Blakeney Point or head along to the popular seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea, 4 miles away, where you can spend hours on the beach crabbing as well as browsing the charming shops, cafes and restaurants. Hop aboard the Wells to Walsingham light railway and enjoy the nostalgia of an era of steam travel that only a day on the world’s smallest public railway can bring.

We loved the cottage which was bigger and more cosy than suggested by the pictures and description. Nice to have some logs for the fire provided.

The property is in the pretty village of Stiffkey, a great location to explore North Norfolk. The area around the property is quiet as there are only two other cottages close by. The cottage itself is a nice size but is looking tired. The inside needs a lick of paint and the outside desperately needs weeding, general tidying and the grass cut.

The cottage was quite comfortable. It would have been nice to have had basketful of wood to give us a fire on the first night and also information as to where could replenish said stock. The stairs to the first floor would definitely be a challenge to a less mobile person. All in all the cottage was lovely and we certainly enjoyed our stay. Thank yRead moreou. Hide

Floors were wet on arrival at 4p.m and took ages to dry, couldn't unload the car till later. Downstairs bathroom is old and needs updating, also blinds needed at the window as the workmen on the scaffolding next door could see right in, but the shower rooms are great, with plenty of hot water. This cottage doesn't supply a welcome pack, it it alwayRead mores nice to try the local produce. Overall, a good place to stay, but take heed of the advice about the stairs !!! Hide

Very comfortable and clean cottage with everything one could ask for. Peaceful and plenty of wildlife, red kites, buzzards, muntjac deer and the kingfisher under the bridge but you have to be quiet and patient. Once arrived park the car and use the coastal bus from Stiffkey all along n/norfolk coast, so easy.

Great location and building work nearby did not cause any disturbance. Meeting muntjac deer every morning was a treat. The cottage had a very cosy 'feel' to it and the heating worked perfectly when required. Would stay at Walnut Tree Cottage again.
