  • "Cottage was very clean and had a pretty garden."

    Great parking but had slight difficulty finding it as SatNav directed us to opposite end of Grub Street for some reason. Cottage was well equipped and cosy with the log burner alight and we had a relaxing break. Information on Sykes stated that beach, shop and pub were 0.1 miles away when in fact this turned out to be 1 mile for all. We did the walk on a lovely day but as lanes have no pavements this would not be great at night, or if you have young children. The close proximity of shop, pub, beach etc was one of the main reasons for booking the cottage so was disappointed to find that this was not the case and suggest information on Sykes is updated. Also, do not rely on the village shop for all your needs. Stocks lots of alcohol and gifts such as tea towels and coasters but slightly (extremely!) lacking in most other basics but there are plenty of nearby places to buy supplies which are a short drive away.

  • "Lovely cottage, only two points, two seater sofa is not very comfortable and the wind whistle through letterbox meaning you can't sit on sofa next to door."

  • "We enjoyed our stay very much."

    The dog loved the garden. We loved the log burner. Great to be able to walk to the beach and pub. If I’m being totally honest the bed was a bit small, we’re used to a king size. Just be warned, there are no cleaning products at all. I had taken my own.

About the location

HAPPISBURGH, EAST ANGLIA

Norwich 19.3 miles; Great Yarmouth 22.5 miles

This historic village brushes the East Anglian coastline in the English county of Norfolk. Its lighthouse is the oldest working light in the area, as well as being the only independently run beacon in Great Britain, dating back to 1790. Its imposing tower of red and white stands proudly on the north-eastern headland surrounded by verdant countryside. You can visit this beautiful structure during public open days and climb the 112 steps up to the lantern. Another notable building in the village is St. Mary's Church, a 15th century landmark, whose tower warned mariners of the position of the perilous sandbanks nearby. This church also has set open days, where you can enjoy splendid views of the sea and enveloping fields from the top of the tower. Enjoy a picturesque stroll down to the beach and watch the lifeboats speedily tackle the untamed seas. There is also a village trail for you to amble, taking you past all the Happisburgh landmarks worth seeing. The village of Winterton-on-Sea is within easy reach by car and boasts a vast beach and wildlife-rich nature reserve that has attracted colonies of Terns and rare Natterjack toads. The old fishermen's cottages and village church makes it an idyllic location to bring the family for a day out. Further afield is the city of Norwich with its two cathedrals and Norman castle, whilst the popular seaside resort of Great Yarmouth offers one of Britain’s largest open air markets. A wonderful destination for your next holiday by the sea.
