Crab cottage: Detached house with sea views

Crab Cottage is the perfect venue for a family beach holiday in Sheringham.

Located on a quiet road in East Sheringham, it’s a three-minute walk to the beach, and a mere five minutes to Sheringham town centre – known for its old-fashioned seaside atmosphere and thriving independent shops, encompassing everything from traditional sweet shops to fish’n’chips, penny arcades, cafés, and even a working steam railway!

Crab Cottage has recently been redecorated, and we’ve done our best to think of everything you could wish for on your family holiday.

There is a small, enclosed garden at the back of the house with excellent sea views (and it’s sheltered – perfect for barbecues!), off-street parking for two cars, an open-plan living/dining area, and a separate kitchen. There’s even a gas fire and a few board games, making this a great choice for cosy winter breaks as well as summer holidays.

You’ll find more information about our facilities below, but if there’s anything else you’d like to know, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

We unfortunately only had a few nights stay. First time to Sheringham. Would definitely stay again. The view was stunning. Would love to stay longer and explore this part of Norfolk more. Easy access to house, clear instructions. Few things slightly tired and could do with replacing. But great place to stay.

Fantastic location with sea view, and the option to sit in the garden. Spacious living area for up to 6 people. Parking a bonus. Beds comfortable. I think everything we needed was available. Some areas could do with a bit of a clean/TLC but it wouldn't put me off staying again.

We had a lovely time at this property, ideally located - just minutes to the beach or the town with off road parking. Easy check in. Area was quiet,the house had lovely views of the sea. Very spacious with comfortable beds and lovely fresh bedding. I was concerned after seeing previous reviews about cleanliness but we found it to be very clean just need a bit of refreshing in some areas which probably gets done in low season.Nice to have enclosed garden for dog. Our only moan would be cleanliness of cutlery,plates, saucepans etc, had to wash some items before use but that’s probably down to previous guests. Overall we loved this accommodation and would definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was fantastic and there was enough living space for a family of 5. Nice outdoor decking and conservatory added extra spaces. The house was just not incredibly clean and was a bit shabby in places. It needs a bit of time spent on it and a really good clean. We found a dog bone under a chair, one of the door locks to the bathroom kept falling off and there weren't really enough water glasses. We still very much enjoyed our stay though.

4 night break

Property is in a great location, good size but need of TLC & upgrade. Beds were comfy and the house is well equipped. The house had not been cleaned & beds were as last renters had left however, owner soon arranged clean bedding & cleaner came next day. I suspect this was a problem with the contracted company rather than the owner. The garden is overgrown & you can't see the sea from the decking - shame. Town centre is very close with lots of shops & eateries. Overall we had a lovely stay in Sheringham.

Near beach and bump

We love Sherringham having stayed nearby several times. Large detached house. Shower room and seperate bath room both with toilet (not clear on description). Good size secure garden for kids and dogs. Sea view upstairs. The children were all relaxed in the house as homely. By the pitch and putt, Beeston bump and steps to beach.Lovely sandy beach.

Crab cottage

Great location, property needs some updating, gardens were over grown, garden furniture was unusable as it was covered with bird poo, green moss growing in the roof of the extension. Cold tap in the kitchen had no running water, having said this the location was central for town and Beach.

Perfect location for Sheringham

Excellent location. Large property but needs some TLC. Didn’t like having to clear up 2piles of dog poo in the garden that were from obviously large dogs on arrival. Clean and very functional. Suited us fine for the 3 days of our short stay.

February break

We stayed for a short break by the sea and it was great. The property is spacious, clean and well equipped. It’s in a great location for the beach although it's a steep climb! It’s nice to be able to walk in to the town and not use the car all the time.

A great place but…

February half term is cold - on this occasion very cold but North Norfolk is stunning and a perfect time to visit! However, it was obvious when we arrived the property had not been rented in a while - no heating (it was 1 degree and -7 wind chill) and it was freezing! If you have guests coming at least put heating on the day before?!
