About this property

Flint House - Cottage with a twist, parking and short walk to beach.

When we were looking for a holiday home we were drawn to Sheringham and found the perfect cottage for us that for us that is just a short walk a great beach and the town centre. Add to this off road parking and a secure garden and it makes for a great holiday where you can park up and just walk everywhere you need for the week.

With two main downstairs rooms both with plenty of space there is enough room for the family even if it rains. We have TV's in both rooms (amazon prime on one and freeview on the other), games and books if needed. There is also a downstairs toilet.

The kitchen comes with everything you will need plus a washing machine and dishwasher which are holiday essentials in our mind.

Up the cupboard stairs (these are quite steep) there is two double bedrooms a bathroom and seperate toilet. On the top floor is another Bedroom with two seperate single beds.

Sheringham has lots to offer from a great high street with lots of independant shops, the Little Theartre and the Poppy steam train line.
Of course there is also the beach, lots of golf courses and a great location to explore North norfolk further should you wish. Booking is Friday to Friday in the Summer, Friday to Monday, Monday to Friday in winter.

Please note while we ask for a damage deposit this is held by Homeaway and not us.

Lovely house - perfect for our needs (family with 3 kids- 2 of which are teenagers). This is the third time we have been at this property. We love sheringham and the location of the house, added bonus of being able to park car. We love the kitchen dining space with access out onto the back garden. It’s been a great holiday, hope to come back again

This house was one of the best that I’ve stayed in- clean, tidy, enclosed garden, beautifully decorated and a fab space. Plenty of games and books to entertain the family. Ideal location for Sheringham and for walks along the Norfolk Coastal Path. The host was easy to contact and extremely helpful- including having the heating on ready for our arrival. We will definitely be visiting again.

Good property for our stay.

Everything we needed for our stay. In easy reach of the shops and beach. Only criticism is that it needed cobwebs removing and the windows needed cleaning.

The house in Sheringham was perfect - tasteful, spacious, cosy and well equipped! The short walk into town made for exploring the high street, visiting the beach and tasting the mix of coffee shops. The car parking space was a cherry on the cake, meaning we could come and go as we pleased. Our dogs loved the enclosed garden, meaning they could explore with peace of mind. We had a really wholesome stay over New Years, and felt Phil maintain good communication throughout which was reassuring for first tine visitors. We really hope to return again soon!

Lovely place to stay. Everything you could need was available in the house. Off-street parking was essential. Fully enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs and we made use of the garden furniture too.The stairs are certainly steep, but this is stated in the property details.Phil is very approachable and welcoming as a host.

This is a fantastic house a short walk from the town which has everything you need, beach is also very close meaning you do not need to use your car, it also has parking which is great. We are a family of 5 including dogs and we had plenty of space. The garden is a great bonus and due to the hot weather we spent a fair bit of time outside. We all fell in love with the house and it quirks, as mentioned in other reviews the stairs are steep but they just add to the character of the house. The kitchen is a great space including a sofa and TV which meant we could spread out. The main sitting room is lovely and was a great place to cool down in the hot weather. The house has everything you need including a dishwasher which is a must for me, two toilets and a seperate bathroom, bedrooms are comfortable with one located on the top floor. Communication with the host was good and answered any questions I had.This property scores a 10 out of 10 for me and we will definitely book again

Lovely quirky property, great garden, ideal for dogs downstairs. We loved being close to shops, beach & restaurants. We didn't use attic bedroom stairs too tight & steep. All rooms clean & fresh but bathroom needs an overhaul. We enjoyed our stay thank you

Flint House Holiday Cottage

My stepdaughter, partner, daughter (18) and son (15) spent a very happy week in this comfortable and well-placed cottage in Sheringham. The off-road parking was invaluable as was the proximity of the shops, the railway station and the beach.

Family break

A short break with my daughter, her partner and 5 year old. House had enough space for me to get a bit of separation from the others which I needed at times. I was able to charge my car at the nearby Tesco and there were enough local activities to keep an active boy amused. Easy walk to the sea.

Great half term break

Loved coming to Sheringham for May half term. Really convenient spot to walk into the town and beaches. Great coastal walks and other drives to beaches, see the seals and visit nearby spots. House as described and very handy off street parking and outside space. Many thanks.

About the host

Hosted by Phil

Host profile image
We are a family of 7 and being originally from Norfolk I was keen that we gave our children the same wonderful holiday experience we had.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a flint cottage that was the beach side of the railway, had parking, garden for the kids and dogs plus a great family space.

We had to have some work done to get the house up to scratch but we hope our guests love our house as much as we do.
