Make memories to last forever when you take Rover with you on holiday to North Norfolk. This charming, two-bedroom period cottage, which sleeps four guests, in Cromer is a paws-down winner for pups who love the sea. Set at the heart of the Victorian coastal town, it makes a great base for walking the Norfolk Coast Path and racing across dog-friendly beaches.
Dust down sandy paws and make your way inside via the hall. Head into the lovely lounge/diner, where you can recline on the elegant sofa while Rover enjoys the thick rug. Switch on the wood burner-effect electric fire in here after bracing autumnal walks and choose a book or game from the shelves upstairs or down. There is also a Smart TV. The country-style kitchen is both attractive and practical, with plenty of space for Rover to dine at floor level while you rustle up mouth-watering dishes with the Norfolk produce you have shopped for in town. Sit down to your own meal in the main living area. As the sun sets over Norfolk, pat your pal goodnight and climb the stairs to the delightful bedrooms, a king-size and a double. The family bathroom, with both a shower and a bath, is also here. There is no outside space with this cottage but verdant Warren Wood, a 0.5-mile walk, is a great place to exercise pups. Parking is on the street, subject to availability.
Pick up the Norfolk Coast Path in Warren Woods and strike out along the cliffs with Rover. Take him to the National Trust’s Felbrigg Hall, 3 miles away, where there are acres of mature estate to explore. East Runton Beach, 0.5 miles away, is dog friendly all year round. The great expanses of spectacular Holkham Beach, 24.5 miles away, make a great day out.
