Three double bedroom fisherman’s cottage-breathtaking views across RSPB marshes.
Cley is a beautiful village on the breathtaking North Norfolk coast and Mariners hard, an old fisherman’s cottage, sits in the centre of the village but with views out across the marsh land. Internally, Mariners hard has a modern decor and has three double bedrooms, all with en-suites. The cottage is a two minute walk to the pub, art gallery, pottery and deli of Cley and a two minute walk to the coastal path taking you through the marshland to the beach or down to Salthouse. There are numerous beautiful walks from the cottage - across the marsh land to Blakeney to the west or Salt-marsh to the east. Mariners hard is maintained to a high standard: all the beds have Egyptian cotton sheets and duck-down bedding; the towels are plentiful and fluffy; there is a large sitting area with a cosy log fire; a large dining table and an outside space with a dining area and bbq for alfresco dining.

We adored our time here for a very memorable late Autumn break. Such a stylish and comfortable home with real attention to detail. The owners have gone the extra mile... beds are supremely comfortable with lovely linen and the rest of the house is just a special.
What a treat to be able to walk from the house onto the marshes and take a footpath to the sea. Wildlife in this part of Norfolk always delivers a spectacle and we enjoyed 'close views' of Barn Owls and Marsh Harriers, huge flocks Geese and much more. Excellent places to eat within so close, an easy walk. The owners have written a really good guide to the area - was really useful.
We know North Norfolk well and have enjoyed holidays here many times. The combination of this house and this location is a real winner. We loved it all!
The beds and bed linen were wonderful. Really comfortable. It was disappointing that the deli did not deliver the welcome pack until the next day but the cottage owner got on to that quickly. We were warned it might be cold as it is an old cottage and it was, so
It would have been nice if there was some low heating on to take the chill off.

About the host
Hosted by Joanne Stuart
Hi,
We bought Mariners Hard in 2019 because we visited that part of North Norfolk over the years and fell in love with the area. We want you to have a wonderful trip and try very hard for that to happen. I am particular about cleanliness, bedding, maintenance and work with local companies, with equally high standards, to make sure our guests enjoy their stay.
