Suaeda Cottage, Burnham Overy Staithe

Secluded seaside cottage on North Norfolk Heritage Coast

Suaeda Cottage from Garden (Brenda Hines)

The essentials:

  • Sleeps four in 1 double bedroom and 1 twin bedroom
  • Tucked away in the heart of Overy Staithe, just round the corner from the harbour
  • Sea views from main bedroom and attic sitting-toom
  • About 1.5 miles from the beach – or take a ferry to Scolt Head Island
  • Ideal for nature-lovers (geese flying overhead, seabirds on the salt-marshes, bats in the garden at dusk)
  • Great for family seaside holidays or spring/autumn breaks away from the hustle and bustle
  • 50 yards from bar/restaurant, 2 miles from Burnham Market, 3 miles from Holkham, 5 miles from Wells-next-the-Sea.

By the way…

  • Suaeda Cottage has a fibre-optic Internet collection with WiFi. The mobile signal has improved recently, but just in case, there is a landline phone guests can use.
  • The heating is electric (mainly storage heaters), with a small but very effective woodburner in the downstairs sitting room.
  • There is a cobbled yard at the front and a walled garden at the back.
  • We offer short breaks (minimum three nights) except during peak periods.
  • The 2024 letting season is from 21 April to 5 November, with a few interruptions for maintenance and personal use.
