If you want to experience the big skies of North Norfolk, this is the place to do it. Set in rural farmland and with plenty of outdoor space, this semi detached period ex-farm worker’s cottage is equidistant to the popular coastal villages of Thornham, Old Hunstanton and Holme, and their lovely sandy beaches. These are all within a few minutes drive along pretty back country roads, only 4 miles away with no need to queue for miles along the busy coast road to get to them. It offers fresh, simple, spacious accommodation which has been sensitively renovated whilst still retaining period features and charm. Accommodation is comfortable and stylish with attention to detail in every room, good quality linens, pretty gardens all round and incredible views from every window. It has been designed with much needed hedonism and relaxation in mind.
Located down a farm track it is safe from the road with plenty of parking, with fully enclosed front & back garden.
Entrance into the cottage is via a boot room with plenty of space for coats and boots and a stable door into the stylish locally handmade farmhouse kitchen which is fully equipped with ample crockery and seating for 8. The central heating is oil fired from a new external boiler, (2021) which provides ample hot water & makes the cottage very warm & cosy. Cooking is by Rayburn .There is a microwave & back up small/ baby belling type electric oven and hob if you would prefer not to use the Rayburn. Also a large Smeg fridge freezer and baking equipment-everything you would need for a self catered stay.
The sitting room is large and comfortable with an incredibly effective wood burning stove and you will be left with an ample supply of logs. Free view TV with chrome cast and unlimited broadband. Being at the back of the cottage, it has bifold doors which, when completely open, bring the outside in with panoramic/ paddock views.
Also downstairs is a study and cloakroom.
All 3 bedrooms in the cottage are upstairs, two with king size beds, and a third with full size twins. They all have comfortable, good quality beds with pocket sprung mattresses and great views over farmland.
There is one upstairs bathroom with bath and separate rainfall shower.
Please be aware that the stairs are quite steep being traditional Norfolk winder stairs with NO child stair gate at the top.
The front and back gardens are safe, secluded and enclosed with BBQ, outdoor table and plenty of garden seating and space for relaxation, drinking and eating. Please note the back fence is low & so the property is not suitable for dogs that are likely to jump over! Please ask us directly for more info.

Thanks so much for your review and so pleased you enjoyed your stay & that you appreciated all that the cottage & location have to offer! Thanks for being a great guest, you are very welcome back anytime!
We had a lovely 4 day stay and couldn’t have asked for a better accommodation. It was clean, spatious and had everything we needed, and more! We especially liked all the extra touches such as fresh wild flowers on our arrival. The location was good and very peaceful. We are hoping to return!
This property is perfectly located in a rural location but is close to everything you need. It was the ideal base for trips to the stunning North Norfolk coast nearby and pretty villages. The house itself has a lovely feel and is well equipped. We’d highly recommend it!

Thanks Kate, so glad you appreciated it and enjoyed Norfolk too!
A beautiful house with everything we needed to have a really relaxing break in Norfolk this summer. It helped the weather was amazing, but we explored the area and many of the lovely local pubs with fabulous food. Gorgeous property, lovely gardens and everything you need for a comfortable holiday. Thanks Ali & Jim!!

Thanks Anna, we’re so glad you enjoyed your stay & appreciated the cottage & lovely Norfolk! Thank you for being the perfect guests!
We had a wonderful week staying in this property and exploring the north Norfolk coast. The cottage is beautiful and very stylishly furnished, with lovely furniture and very comfy beds. It is excellently equipped with everything you could possibly need. The owners are incredibly attentive and were genuinely keen to be as helpful as possible and to make our stay as lovely as possible. Really nice extra touches such as a hamper of treats on our arrival and fresh flowers in many of the rooms. We would definitely come back to this property.

Thanks Victoria, we’re delighted you had a good week and it’s lovely that you appreciated all our extra touches ( which we enjoy doing!) to make it welcoming for you. Thank you for leaving it so clean and tidy, much appreciated. You are very welcome back any time, best wishes Ali
This has the Wow factor. You will shed a tear, when you leave.
You will shed a few tears when you leave Summerfield cottage. Myself, my husband, daughter, daughter's partner and son spent a week at Summerfield cottage. We had a fantastic time in Norfolk. The cottage was a perfect size for 5 adults. The cottage is beautiful with personal touches provided by Ali and James for their guests. Ali and James have provided guests with everything you need for a stay away from home. The garden is stunning with so many different seating areas, a BBQ and fire pit are also provided and we made use of these. We loved sitting and watching the bees, especially the Hummingbird moths. I would highly recommend staying in Summerfield cottage, it's extremely clean, excellent kitchen ware, bed linen, garden and location is perfect. Quiet area with ample parking for two cars. Although we didn't meet Ali and James (shame), communication with them was excellent. Thank you so much Ali and James for providing us with a perfect holiday home and for your thoughtfulness. xx

Thanks so much Geraldine. We are so pleased you appreciated the cottage and it’s special setting which is indeed a little paradise! It was a pleasure having you all to stay, thank you ☺️
We really enjoyed this very personal experience, fantastic hosts. The only thing that could be improved would be the cleaning, the house had not been properly cleaned with dust and dirt in places. But despite that, we would definitely return and would absolutely recommend.

Thanks Maria. I’m surprised to hear about your cleaning comments as we pride ourselves on the cottage being super clean and have in particular never known it to be dirty. We will investigate this further & contact you privately to see where these places are to ensure this can be rectified. We are glad you appreciated our hosting and hope you enjoyed the fresh flowers, and welcome pack we left for you.
Best wishes Ali
Beautiful house in stunning location. Views to die for and very close to a number of excellent beaches and places to visit.
Ali was fab to communicate with pre holiday - the house as incredibly well equipped, including some great books and toys for the kids to play with. We totally lucked out with the weather - hot and sunny all week. Most afternoons were spent in the wonderful garden enjoying a bbq and those views! First time in Norfolk and loved it, hope to be back to stay again soon.
We loved our stay. The house is very comfortable and generously equipped and the garden is ideal to lounge in if you just want to lie-back for an afternoon.

Thanks Amy, glad you loved it, it’s a very special place to stay! Best wishes Ali
An adorable property overlooking green fields, within easy reach of several beaches (Hunstanton, Brancaster, Holkham, Wells Next the sea etc) and other sights of interest (Holkham Hall, Morston Quay) . The twin beds were perfect for our two pre schoolers and the house comfortably fit 4 adults. Ali was very easy to communicate with - quick to respond and help. The Rayburn is a bit tricky if you’ve never used it before but we still managed to cook and enjoy our meals. Overall I think the house looks better in reality than it does in the photos!

Thanks Gayatri, so glad you enjoyed your stay & appreciated all the cottage & surrounding area had to offer! You are welcome back any time, best wishes Ali
My family and I have just had the most relaxing week at this property.
When you arrive you instantly notice the character of the house and the buzzing wildlife of the beautiful wild flower garden.
The character continues inside the house and is tastefully decorated throughout giving a very spacious, chilled atmosphere.
The property owners were fantastic, everything you could possibly need was there and instructions for everything in the house was laminated if you needed to refer to them.
When we arrived we had a note from the owners wishing us a happy stay and goodies were left for us and the children, it was very personable and welcoming.
If your looking for a relax stay in norfolk, this is the one for you!

Thanks so much for taking time to review the cottage Gemma. So glad you enjoyed it! Best wishes Ali
The perfect cottage to rent, in the North Norfolk Coast and close to the beach.
A beautifully decorated cottage, spacious, light and well equipped.
Stunning views, good parking and a large garden with different seating areas so you can follow the sun around.
Each bedroom was large with comfortable beds and a great bathroom with a shower.
We loved every minute of our week staying in this delightful cottage and would highly recommend it.

Zoe, Tom and family were the most perfect and charming of guests. We could not recommend them highly enough.
This beautiful cottage has the best of both worlds-country and coast! A peaceful beautiful rural retreat just a few miles inland. It has stunning views from every window and a large outside space to sunbathe, play, wine and dine, yet is only a few minutes drive to busy towns and popular beaches.
What makes this property unique
You can see the sea from the back bedrooms in the distance at high tide even though it’s 4 miles away!
