Enjoy a coastal escape in North Norfolk in this stylish holiday home for four humans and one hound. The property has a sociable, open-plan layout and a large, enclosed garden for your canine companion. There are some spectacular sandy beaches along this stretch of coast, many of which welcome four-pawed holidaymakers. Nearby doggy days out include Holkham Hall (14.5 miles) and the North Norfolk Railway (1 mile).

The spacious abode has a contemporary style and an open-plan layout. Enter into the hallway, where you can store your walking gear, before moving into the bright lounge/kitchen/diner. With hard floors throughout and direct access to the garden, this is the perfect spot for the pup to set up camp. Rustle up delicious feasts for the group in the sleek kitchen area and gather around the breakfast bar for memorable mealtimes, or head out into the garden for an al fresco dinner. The two inviting bedrooms are located on the first floor, along with the family bathroom. Outside, you’ll find an enclosed garden with plenty of space for the woofer to burn off steam, as well as a patio area for outdoor entertaining.

The coastal village of Blakeney has a picturesque harbour to potter around, as well as several pubs and cafes. From the village, you can join the Norfolk Coast Path, which offers spectacular sea views and fabulous wildlife-watching opportunities. You’ll be near some of Norfolk’s finest beaches, including Wells-next-the-Sea (12 miles) and Brancaster (28 miles), both of which have woof-friendly sections all year. Heading inland, you’ll soon reach the Georgian town of Holt. This is a great spot for retail therapy, with many independent shops to peruse. From here, you and Rover can hop on the steam train for a scenic jaunt through the countryside to the seaside resort of Sheringham.

A well presnted modern house where we spent a very comfortable week. Its location is no problem as it is a ten minute walk to the local shop and another five minutes to the Kings ARms and quay. Off street parking is a big plus. Be aware when we stayed there was no hair dryer supplied and no washing machine.

We had a great week staying at the Glaven Retreat, it has a massive shower plus a decent bath, a very neat garden and the property itself is very modern and clean. Location wise its easy to walk down into the harbour ( 5 mins ) even with a pram and a toddler in tow. Well be back!

This is an excellent cottage for holidays. The beds are soooo comfortable I didn't want to get up in the mornings. For us this was just about the most perfect place we could ever find and so quiet with very little in the way of noise apart from birds. We will definitely be back.
