Located in the serene village of Holme-next-the-Sea in Norfolk, Barnwell Cottage is a stylish end-of-terrace accommodation that comfortably sleeps four guests. Nestled away from the main coast road, this cottage is ideally positioned within walking distance of a sandy beach, a coastal nature reserve, and a charming village pub/restaurant.

During the summer, guests can enjoy the courtyard garden, which serves as a sun-trap ideal for morning coffee or alfresco dining. A separate, fully-enclosed garden nearby provides a safe play area for children and pets. The location offers a plethora of walking opportunities right from the doorstep, including access to the beach, the Victorian seaside resort of Hunstanton, and scenic trails like the Peddars Way.
