Tell Fido to take a rest from watchdog duty – you can all lap up the uninterrupted views of North Norfolk’s evocative coastline from this one-of-a-kind holiday home. With two en-suite bedrooms, two sitting rooms and direct access to Morston Quay, it’s an idyllic retreat for a family or two couples and their salty sea dog.

Sea air and salt marshes will ensure lots of waggy-tailed time at this quirky coastal abode… but there’s plenty to please those who simply want to get away from it all too. A traditional cottage-style entrance welcomes you inside; step into the characterful kitchen and you’ll find all the self-catering essentials plus plenty of space for your pet to stay close as you share meals at the rustic dining suite. One of the property''s two bedrooms is on the ground floor: a twin room with zip-n-link single beds which can be made into a super-king-size double bed on request. For ultra-convenience, this room has its en-suite shower room. Moving upstairs, you’ll find an open-plan sitting room where on cooler nights you can curl up on the sofa before the wood burner and watch TV. Whatever the weather, you’ll want to spend time in the second social space here: a stunning look-out with additional seating, a dining table and triple-aspect floor-to-ceiling windows that offer uninterrupted views across Morston Creek and Blakeney Point. A king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room completes the floorplan. When you want a sniff of fresh air, simply step out onto the first-floor balcony or unwind with Fido in the courtyard garden – your lawned area has direct access to Morston Quay and the Norfolk Coast Path.

One of North Norfolk’s most atmospheric locations, Morston is a paradise for walkers and wildlife-watchers. Morston Quay is a busy tidal harbour with beautiful walks leading to Blakeney (1.5 miles), Wells (6.6 miles) and beyond. Spot the local seals with a boat trip – dog-friendly excursions embark at Morston Quay and Blakeney. Alternatively, walk the parklands at some of East Anglia’s finest country houses: Holkham Hall is 9 miles along the coast and Sheringham Park is 10.5 miles.

  • 2 bedrooms - Upstairs master bedroom with king-size bed, downstairs twin bedroom (zip-and-link can be made as a super-king on request)
  • 2 bathrooms - 2 en-suite shower rooms
  • Electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge and freezer, 2 additional fridges, washing machine, dishwasher and coffee machine
  • Smart TV Wood burner (1st basket of logs provided), Bluetooth speaker
  • Patio area with garden furniture, courtyard garden area and lawned area

The cottage is wonderful with its fantastic view, especially at sunset. The location is perfect : next to the quay and with easy access to walks. Lovely places to eat around. We tried the newly refurbished Anchor pub around the corner and were impressed

Overall the location and views were exceptional however a few missing essential items let the property down. Having said that, we did not let that detract from our holiday enjoyment.

The cottage offers stunning views and is set in a peaceful location which is excellent whatever the weather. There is a good pub nearby and it is a short walk to the Coast Hopper bus stop which is handy for linear walks along the coastal path. The cottage is clean, cosy and well equipped, and the beds are comfortable.

The cottage its self is brilliant. We found it spacious, comfortable and clean. The views are outstanding and the proximity to the coastal path has been such a gift. The cottage shares outside space with. Number of other cottages who allow campers which can bring noise and a lack of privacy. Response from holidaycottages.co.uk - Thank you for yoRead moreur feedback we have passed this onto the homeowner who has confirmed the tents were erected for a short period in August for the neighbours children to enjoy.

The home was exactly as displayed in the photographs. Plenty of crockery, cutlery and kitchen equipment including 3 fridges. Nice comfortable sofas and great views from the glass extension though pity about the trees blocking the main view of Morston Quay!

This was our fourth stay at the Lookout and we had a very enjoyable week. The cottage is spacious, with lovely views from the first floor glass living room over the marshes and the sea in the distance. The property is right on the coastal path and walking to Blakeney is a pleasant 25 minute stroll.

We recently stayed at this beautiful cottage in North Norfolk and had the most wonderful holiday. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by everything the welcome hamper was such a thoughtful touch and set the tone for the rest of our stay. The cottage itself was spotless and incredibly well-equipped every little detail had been considRead moreered, making it feel like a true home away from home. The balcony offered breathtaking views, and we spent many peaceful moments just soaking it all in. The surrounding area was perfect for walks, with stunning scenery and an abundance of birdlife that made each outing special. It was the perfect mix of comfort, nature, and tranquility. We cant recommend this place highly enough and are already dreaming of our next visit! Hide

Beautiful, comfortable home with stunning views. As keen bird watchers my dad and I spent most of our three night stay in the conservatory. We enjoyed being able to walk from the garden straight into Morston quay. A very relaxing stay, we hope to be back soon

A lovely cottage with amazing views on 3 sides. Very comfortable and homely. Would definitely recommend. Dog owners just be aware that there is no fence between the 2 gardens (the large lawned area is divided in two) so dogs can wander over. But it wouldnt put me off from staying again.
