About this property

Henry's Cottage - a place to make you smile

Henrys’ is a cosy relaxing cottage, sleeping 4, it's well equipped and contains, an entrance lobby, downstairs shower room, a dining kitchen and lounge, upstairs are two double bedrooms and is ideal for families and couples alike wanting a seaside holiday or to use as a base for exploring the broads and this delightful area.

A suntrap garden, multifuel stove in the dining room and open fire in the lounge make this an ideal holiday cottage all year round.

There is EV charging available at an additional cost.

Pleasantly situated in the small village of Winterton-on-Sea Henry's cottage is just 5 minutes walk from the beautiful sandy beach and dunes. The village also boasts an excellent local pub, shop, post office, fish and chip shop and cafe all close by.


Henry's is a former fisherman's cottage that dates back approximately 150 years with comfortable lounge, fabulous fitted kitchen dining room seating 4, shower room and two double bedrooms, with drawers, wardrobe or hanging space. (one also has a cot bed suitable for a small child). As an old cottage I have tried to remain sympathetic to it's rustic character and charm, allowing you to enjoy it's relax and unwind in pleasant surroundings.

PLEASE NOTE. This is an old fishermans cottage and the stairs are steep, turning and wooden, not suitable for anyone with mobility issues

Outside there is parking for two cars and pleasant gardens both front and back, a patio area with garden furniture to enjoy the first cup of tea of the day, gas bbq and sun loungers available for the most relaxing of days.

Situated in the heart of the village there's always someone to talk to, and you're never far from anywhere, in addition to the pubs and shops there is an excellent children's playground for a change from the beach, while on the edge of the village is a beautiful church dating back to the 1500's and seals often seen on the beach and playing in the sea, meaning that there is always something to do or somewhere to visit.

If you choose to book, why not also choose to pay me direct, this will save us both money - just send an enquiry and ask. As you can see I've been hosting for many years and always honour bookings.

About the host

Hosted by Marie Ungless

Host profile image
Although I live in Nottingham I've owned the cottage for a while now and this is my 'special go to place' where I have had many happy times.

The cottage is named after my son who is now in his 20's and has been going all his life - it was his first holiday! We have spent many wonderful days in the cottage and exploring the surrounding area regardless of the weather! I'm sure you'll have a fabulous holiday too.

It was fate when I found the cottage, (I wasn't even looking at the time), but a series of events led me to the cottage and to buying at auction - one of the best decisions of my life - other than having my son and marrying my second husband!

Why they chose this property

Henrys cottage is in the heart of the village and is a wonderful homely place that immediately welcomes you, allowing you to relax and unwind ready for your holiday adventure. Open fires make it cosy in winter and the fantastic sun trap of a garden make it the ideal relaxation spot on a sunny day on the sunloungers provided. The garden has a seating area and BBQ with parking for upto 2 cars.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is essentially a two up two down fishermans cottage, with a unique feeling that wraps itself around you - its a house that makes you smile. It's not the poshest or the most modern but it's warm and welcoming and the moment you walk in the door, you start to relax and unwind - the perfect holiday destination. Set in a friendly village with just enough facilities to satisfy your needs but not so many that it overwhelms.
