Have a ball at this beautiful seaside retreat that offers a quintessentially British holiday along Norfolk’s deeply historical coastline. Offering charming accommodation for a family of three and two dogs, it is a former fisherman’s cottage and sits at the heart of the popular maritime town of Wells-next-the-Sea. An ancient port with a bustling harbourside, the town also boasts a large sweep of beach backed by pine trees and is a beautiful place to enjoy a traditional beach break.

Boasting a gorgeous brick and flint facade, step across the threshold and discover the delightful open-plan kitchen that’s been decorated in a contemporary country style – and with a compact dining area and plenty of storage, it offers a lovely space for mealtimes. The cosy living room is a very inviting space; let sleeping dogs lie in front of the wood burner while you catch up on TV or plan your next day of adventures before heading up the cottage-style stairs to bed. The property offers two well-appointed bedrooms: a bright and spacious double and a delightful single bedroom, ideally suited to children and teens. On the first floor, you’ll also find the family shower room. Outside, the attractive shingled courtyard is the perfect space for dogs to bask out in the sun, whilst you enjoy your morning coffee in tranquil surroundings.

A great location if you want to park and walk for the duration of your holiday, Wells-next-the-Sea is a thriving port town and its lovely swathe of beach can be reached on foot, just 1 mile away. Quayside is just 300 metres from the property and an ideal spot for crabbing, or you can browse the array of independent shops and boutiques before enjoying a hearty meal in one of the dog-friendly establishments. The Wells and Walsingham Railway is also conveniently 1 mile from the cottage.

The cottage is lovely, quaint and in an ideal location within walking distance to all amenities. The only real issue is the parking, there is no parking available at the cottage. There is meant to be parking on streets close by but we couldnt find any space at all. The area was very busy as it was Easter weekend. We drove around for ages looking foRead morer parking and eventually got a space in a nearby car park, it is long stay but cost us 11 a day. As much as we loved the cottage we would not book it again but only because of the parking issue. Hide

We loved Little Rosa, so many nice things I could say. Unfortunately it was let down by the little things - no Freezer Compartment during a heat wave. The bins were full, no one had put them out, they were overflowing, so we had to empty them by hand and walked the rubbish down to a bin in town, taking someone else's rubbish, not fun.

We had a lovely stay at Little Rosa. It was very cosy and in a quiet street not far from the quay With its lovely shops and cafes. The cottage was clean and although compact has everything you need. Parking wasnt a problem as we used the pay and display a few minutes walk away.

A lovely getaway break for us and located close to quay and walking into centre of town and pubs. Sofa needs replacing, which Im sure will now happen. Cosy, warm and perfect to relax comfortably with four legged friends.

This cottage is a cosy and homely property on a quite lane just a stones throw from the town centre and quay. It is well equipped and comfortable to stay in. Sadly there isn't parking but the long stay car park (5 mins walk away) is reasonably priced and has electric charging points. Or you may be lucky and find some on street parking close by.
