Situated in Thornham, one of North Norfolk's most sought after coastal villages, 3 Knights Cottages is a superb three storey stylish cottage with every modern comfort, three en-suite bedrooms and fabulous far reaching open views to the coast. With a south facing enclosed courtyard garden and easy access to some great local eateries, what more could you want?!
Built in 2019, by a respected local builder to the highest of standards, 3 Knights Cottages is at the end of a terrace of three brick and flint cottages set back from the coastal road enjoying uninterrupted views across the fields to the coast in the distance. The interiors have a calm palette co-ordinating soft colours on the walls with the furniture and furnishings, together creating a very warm, relaxing and welcoming vibe. On the ground floor the contemporary open-plan dual aspect sociable living space flows from one end of the cottage to the other and has the warmth of underfloor heating. Comprising a beautiful fitted kitchen and large island with granite worktops, an adjoining dining area beside bi-folding doors to the rear garden and the cosy sitting area at the front of the cottage has a glimpse of the coast. Just off the living area you have a very useful utility room, perfect for storing wet coats (and dogs) and muddy boots, and there's a handy cloakroom in the entrance hall. The three bedrooms (king, double and twin) are set over two floors and all have wall-mounted televisions. The stunning dual aspect master suite on the top floor has the best views to the coast, so you may well fight over that one! Outside, the gardens run to three sides, but you will no doubt spend most of your time in the fully enclosed south facing garden at the rear of the cottage, where you can take a seat and catch the sun's rays for most of the day, relaxing in the knowledge that children and dogs are safe to play.
3 Knights Cottages is an ideal holiday hideaway for a family, two to three couples or friends looking for a short or longer stay on the North Norfolk coast. Thornham is a popular all-year-round holiday destination known for its sandy beach, some lovely local walks, a small harbour and a nearby marshland bird reserve. From the cottage it's an easy five to ten minute stroll into the heart of the village, where you have your pick of some excellent places to eat and drink, whether it's just a coffee and snack or something more substantial. Stretch your legs a bit more and walk to the beautiful wild beach to take in the lovely sea air and stunning views along this beautiful coastline. It is certainly worth the extra effort.
Additional Information: Two well-behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge). Pillows and duvets are synthetic fibre. Travel cot and high chair available on request. Please bring your own linen for the travel cot.

Wonderful

A very nicely presented and comfortable property on the outskirts of Thornham.
This property is very nicely decorated and has a very welcoming feel. We found the sofas and beds to be very comfortable. The bedding was crisp and clean and the towels luxurious. It is well equipped and has everything we could have needed. We enjoyed our stay here very much. If I had to mention a negative it would be that the freezer seemed very noisy at times and that the en-suite on the top floor was quite chilly at times, this was, however, during a stay when the weather was particularly cold.
I would happily stay here again.

Christmas stay 2021
The cottage was extremely warm, clean and modern. Generally well set up with a spacious kitchen, living room diner, just lacking a few kitchen items such as serving dishes and utensils. The beds were comfortable and the showers worked well. The TV was excellent and the furniture was good. The cottage was ideal for 3 couples having three ensuite bedrooms. The owners had provided a Christmas tree and it served us well for our Christmas break. We would certainly recommend it to friends who wished to visit North Norfolk.

Immaculate house, very well located.
This house is tastefully decorated with a suitably coastal palette, which gives the compact cottage a bright, airy, modern feel. The location is perfect, with the very useful coast hopper bus stopping opposite the house, and lovely Thornham is a great base. We like a holiday cottage to have good outdoor space, which is limited here - and there were no instructions for using the bi-fold doors, which was a great shame during a week of sunshine. The upstairs bedroom is beautiful but needs a new mattress. But these were small niggles and the house is lovely - we had a wonderful week exploring the Norfolk coastal path in the spring sunshine.

Hi,
Thank you very much for the review. We are pleased to hear you had a lovely time. We will provide notes for the bi-fold door for future guests.
For future reference, please do call us if you have any issues. We would happily ask our maintenance man to pop in and help you. However, we do understand if you do not wish to be disturbed during your stay.
We will also investigate your comment about the mattress and action appropriately.
I do hope we can welcome you back soon.
Kind Regards,
Kristine.

An excellent well laid out house
Very impressed with the house-very clean and modern.Everything worked very well .Only 3 criticisms:
1 There is no wardrobe in the master bedroom so nowhere to hang clothes.
2 The ladies in my family tell me it is quite annoying that there is no mirror near a plug socket for hair drying .That point is also mentioned by other guests in the guestbook.
3 A bit of an issue with Norfolk Hideaways and their responsiveness to a maintenance issue .They don't seem to pick the phone up ,then deny receiving 2 e mails, then when they get the third they take 24 hours to respond suggesting they will send someone round on our last night-far too late by then I am afraid .
The house is about 10 mins walk to the centre of Thornham.I wouldn't bother with the Chequers Inn as they don't seem to want customers ( went in twice and despite the fact only 2 tables were occupied they were too busy to serve a drink) .The Orange Tree is very nice so long as you accept that you will be dining outside .Would highly recommend Erics fish and chips and their click and collect service.

We will definitely return!
We would thoroughly recommend staying here. The house is spacious and clean with a lovely modern decor. To have an en suite in all three bedrooms is a real bonus. We enjoyed waking up to the fabulous views from the top floor. There is also electric in the parking area which we weren't expecting so we were able to charge the car.
The location is ideal for various coastal walks and also two brilliant dog friendly gastro pubs in walking distance along with a dog friendly deli.
We will definitely be back to stay again.

A fabulous stay

3 Knights Cottages
Fab venue, excellent location, would definitely return but not as a group of 6 again as unfortunately 1 if the single beds in the twin room was imsleepable !! Basically the mattress was so completely cheap & worn out you could feel every single spring so the guest on this room had 3 sleepless nights during our 3 night stay. We reported this asap after 1 night but we were informed although owner was ordering mattress topper it wouldn’t arrive during our stay ! It requires a new mattress not a topper !! Also no pillow protectors I’m any pillows !!

Excellent Accomodation
The cottage was excellent and had all the facilities we required.
A couple of minor issues:
1) No toilet roll holders in the toilets
2) No clothes hanging facility in the main bedroom on the second floor.

3 knights Cottage, Thornham Review
We throughly enjoyed our stay at 3 Knights Cottage. The decor is lovely and bright and gives you that coastal feel.
I personally was disappointed that there is no hanging space at all in the master bedroom on the 3rd floor. The room is beautiful and the view is amazing but needs hanging space for clothes and a dressing table and mirror. None of the bedrooms have dressing tables or mirrors. The only mirrors are in the bathrooms.
As a family of six we thought there was just enough cutlery for each meal, a few extra wouldn't go a miss.
Cleanliness was okay, My mother in law wiped the dining room table and it was quite dirty. I know its spider season but there was quite a few cobwebs in the cottage. The toilet seat down stairs doesn't stay up for some reason, which was a little annoying.
Overall we were very happy and comfortable with our stay. , Just a few tweaksl and it will be perfect.

Property needs to have a few more basic items , we didn’t have any tea towels and the beds are not comfortable the mattresses need to be replaced and the bedding was of a poor quality. Apart from those basics the property is clean and spacious down stairs. Good locations for a short walk to pubs and thornham deli.

Lovely property and well equipped. However the water temperature for showering was only just acceptable for showering being slightly above tepid. Also lack of mirrors in the bedrooms for drying hair etc. Otherwise we had a lovely break and would not rule out returning.

Lovely break in Thornham
Very comfortable stay. Ideally placed for exploring the surrounding area. Lots of food options locally, but best to book ahead as they get very busy. Eric’s reliable for takeaways.
Lots of walking and beaches to explore.

Lovely place to stay
Great location, standard of property and all the equipment in the kitchen was a great surprise.
Only thing I would say it would be nice to have some hanging space in the master as nowhere to hang clothes so had to lay it around the room. Also a mirror would be good for drying hair and makeup etc. We loved the property do much we will be staying again.

Excellent property in a lovely village location
What a beautiful part of Norfolk! Thornham village has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The property is well-equipped and furnished to a high standard. There is a private garden patio that catches the sun. The information book provided is a great source for planning your stay and full of very useful information about the area. The bus stop is straight outside the property so there is no need to use your car to get around.
Highly recommended!
