Super hosts Jenny & Francis, always happy to help or stop for a chat. Brilliantly presented cottage. Great peaceful location. Lovely to walk across the field at the end of the day to feed the swans on the lake. After many cottage holidays we've voted Selbrigg definitely the best.

The information was available to help you enjoy a holiday in Norfolk. Books,booklets,reviews were to hand and better than Google.

High standard throughout, very clean and user friendly Cottage. Owners made themselves known to us in case we needed anything then left us alone until we departed. Came to say goodbye and asked if all had been ok. The location is ideal for popping out to local areas, be it seaside ( Sheringham & Cromer less than 30 mins drive) National Trust sites Read moreand the town of Holt. The cottage is secluded enough to just while away the time uninterrupted if you so wish. 3rd visit here and it always delivers. Hide

We have visited about six times and will continue to do so as it is so relaxing and comfortable. Ideally situated for shops and not far from the coast. As birdwatchers we love the area and dont have to travel far to enjoy the birds.
