About this cottage rental
This delightful white-washed, detached character cottage dates back to 1646 and is one of the oldest cottages in Thornham. Located on the edge of the saltmarshes that border the coastline, Church Cottage offers its guests an opportunity to experience an authentic Norfolk cottage in a stunning location.
Church Cottage is a charming property that provides eclectic interiors throughout, including a lovely open-plan kitchen/dining room and a separate living room with a cosy wood burning stove and beams. It is a real home from home with the added bonus of splendid views over the fields and just a minute's walk to the coastal path.
This cottage is spacious and well-equipped and over the years has become a firm favourite with Norfolk Hideaways' guests. Commanding wonderful views from all the front windows towards the sea, you are only a short walk to the beach and a few minutes to the centre of the village with its plethora of eateries. With three award-winning pub/restaurants; The Orange Tree; The Chequer's and The Lifeboat Inn and the Thornham Deli cafe/restaurant in the centre of the village with its excellent local produce, you are spoilt for choice. Walk a little further to the edge of the village and you will be rewarded with Drove Orchards where you'll find arguably the best fish and chips along the coast at Eric's and Gurney's fresh fish counter. With so much walking, eating and discovering literally on your doorstep, you won't even have to take your car out if you don't want to.
Church Cottage is perfect for those who want to unwind and enjoy their surroundings. The property been awarded a 4 Star Gold by Visit Britain over the last few years.
Additional Information:
Although this property does not accept dogs, the owners do have dogs themselves.
Duvets are goose down in the single rooms and poly fibre in the double bed. Spare poly fibre single in the cupboard.
Sorry, no infants or children under the age of 12 years.

We had another absolutely fabulous time in Church Cottage and it was great that we could be joined by friends. The location is superb for birdwatching and our telescope was trained on the Barn Owl box for most of our stay. The facilities in the cottage are excellent and we can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful views - location is fab right on coastal path. The village is lovely 3 pub/restaurants & deli plus the drovers where you can get everything you need including the papers!
The cottage is tired inside not the usual high standards of norfolk hideaways but price reflects this. Uncomfortable sofa & suggest the seating needs replacing. Lots of mats/rugs which dont coordinate gives a bohemian effect - but possibly not so good for looks.
The single rooms are small, so ok if you want to use one as a dressing room but lovely main room!
Kitchen good facilities although small.
Parking is not really for 2 cars unless they are small as the only way into property is round the back - so have to lug everything either down slippery steps or on road.
So with some tlc the cottage would be a perfect hideaway - re instate either the side door in study or front door to make life easier!

Our stay at Church Cottage was perfect. We were extremely lucky with the weather and enjoyed a mini heatwave whilst we were there which meant we could really enjoy exploring the surroundings. The location of the cottage is perfect, with beautiful walks out across the marshes and a variety of pubs/restaurants all within walking distance.
The cottage is spacious and very well equipped and has beautiful views from all the windows. There’s plenty of outdoor seating and the backyard is ideal for enjoying a morning coffee in the sun or a barbecue at sunset.
The cottage is yards away from the Norfolk Coast Path which is great for walking holidays, and the main road along the coast is also very near and gives drivers access to the whole of North Norfolks beautiful beaches and coastline.
I will definitely be looking to stay in the cottage again-I can find no fault with it.

Church Cottage in Thornham is ideally based for exploring the North Norfolk Coast and it is situated overlooking open fields towards the Marsh, and coastline. There is also off road parking which really convenient.
Inside there is a well equipped kitchen.
We didn't find the old sofas in the lounge particularly comfortable. There were too many odd chairs everywhere and it all looked like a second hand furniture shop. We found the bed comfortable but when saw the mattress underneath the plastic sheet we were disappointed to see that it was unpalatably stained. Overall this cottage needs updating, but the bonus was that that despite it being cold outside the heating was good and we were not cold.
