Take two pups to this charming cottage in the picturesque village of Stiffkey, perfect for a family or couples looking for a quiet holiday near the coast. The property is in the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding National Beauty and your pup is welcome to frolic and splash around on part of the beach and in the sea at Wells-next-the-Sea (5 miles) all year round.

A cottage full of character, with exposed beams and brick throughout and a fabulous collection of artwork and furnishings. There are several social areas on the ground floor, including the delightful sunroom and cosy living/dining room. The open-plan living/dining room has eye-catching tiled flooring and a central wood burner to transform chilly evenings into a warm space to settle on the sofa to watch TV or enjoy memorable meals around the dining table. A contemporary galley kitchen has everything to make meal preparation a breeze. The sunroom has an impressive, pitched glass roof and is a great place to read or watch TV. The ground floor is completed by the family bathroom. Upstairs there is a king-size bedroom and a double bedroom. As this is a period property, some of the rooms have sloping ceilings, low beams and restricted head height. Step outside into the courtyard garden and enjoy a drink in this lovely sunny spot or fire up the BBQ for al fresco dining. The garden is fully enclosed so canine companions can stretch their legs or find a shady spot for a little siesta.

Pack your buckets and spades and head to the coast for a day at the seaside. The pristine sandy beach at Holkham (6.5 miles) is one of the region''s hidden gems, with a vast expanse of golden sand backed by a majestic shallow lagoon. Spend a leisurely afternoon in the quaint town of Burnham Market (9.5 miles), where you''ll find a fantastic selection of independent shops and restaurants. Or visit Holt Country Park (9 miles) or ask if your sea dog wants a boat trip to the seal colonies at Blakeney (4.5 miles).

Lovely cottage and location. Well equipped, homely and comfortable. Overall cleanliness was good but lots of dust webs above eye level, not an issue particularly but thought I'd mention it.

Overall very satisfied but some minor grumbles Address info is confusing. Is it 80 Wells Road or 80 GreenWay Took us some time to find Whilst it is close to pub it is impossible to walk there safely in the dark Woodburner was very difficult to light and keep going compared to modern equipment
