Situated in the peaceful village of Aldborough, this homely cottage is perfect for a family looking to explore and enjoy the best of Norfolk and is just 8 miles from the coast.

Complete with an enclosed garden and charming summer house, this perfect Norfolk property promises a wonderful stay for both man and dog alike. After long days of thrilling walkies on the Norfolk coast, this peaceful property offers you the chance to sit with an evening glass of wine whilst man’s best friend explores all four corners of the garden. Should the weather not quite be top dog throughout your stay, we're certain that yourself and your four-pawed pal will find solace in the cosy lounge or snug, curled up with a good book or enjoying TV together.

Sniff out somewhere cosy to relax as soon as you step foot (or paw) into this pretty property. A spacious dining area gives way to a well-equipped kitchen, the perfect place to rest Fido’s food bowl and favourite bed. Cook up a storm and dine together, no doubt with begging eyes looking up at you from beneath the sturdy wooden dining table. As the day draws to a close, the warm embrace of the lounge/snug welcomes you. Let sleeping dogs lie downstairs as you venture up to bed. The first floor promises three bedrooms, one of which is a bunk which is best suited to children. Finally, the focus of this house is its ever-generous gardens with summer house, small pond, charcoal BBQ and outdoor dining set – a great space for when the weather is agreeable.

Pack leash and doggy treats for a trip to the Norfolk coast, heading for Cromer (7 miles) and setting off on long dog walks along the vibrant coastline. Discover the fantastic chalk cliffs at Trimingham Beach (10 miles), a secluded spot that is popular with dog walkers thanks to its lack of doggy restrictions or take a trip in the car to the nearby Norfolk Broads National Park (14.5 miles).

This has to be one of the most impressive cottages and value for money Ive stayed in. We have a long tradition of staying in dog friendly cottages around the country as this is one that ticks all the boxes. The location on the village green just makes it the perfect getaway from it all peaceful holiday home. The locals are extremely friendly and waRead morelking our two Airedales on the local beaches and few beers in the local pub coupled with the added colours of autumn made for a special week Oct 22 Hide

A well presented charming Cottage facing the Village Green. Locals are really friendly and the Village Shop is well stocked with many fresh goods. Plenty of local walks you can follow and the Village Pub is a great place to stop upon your return. Easy access to Cromer, Sheringham & Wells next the Sea if you fancy venturing out.

We had a wonderful week at Whistlestop. The lovely cottage was situated on a village green with a very handy local shop. The cottage had everything we needed for the family and dog and was well situated for a holiday exploring both broads and beaches. The owner was very responsive to any questions. We would love to return another time!
