Wonderfully comfortable and convenient Lavender House
This is a large, welcoming and comfortable house in a quiet street, close to everything that you need in charming Sheringham - beach, shops, transport. We felt instantly at home and didn’t want to leave!

Fantastic place to stay. Huge house and the sun came out so we made use of the decking. Very well equipped kitchen.
Close to the High Street and sea front but a very quiet road. Would definitely come again.

This large, period house was ideal for our extended family gathering. Well equipped & comfortably furnished, with really good beds, & two minutes to the beach. We couldn't have asked for more.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this spacious well equipped house and we felt very comfortable with young children in this house. Loved the playroom with all sorts of toys, games, puzzles etc other equipment provided - bed guards and the cupboard in the kitchen full of plastic plates etc. The house is very close to the sea, shops, arcades and the station. The owner is very responsive to questions too.

A great house with plenty of space! Location is very close to the beach as well as the town which has lots of lovely shops, pubs, cafes and more. Beds were comfy. Handy having a laundry room with small children. Lots of stair gates and bed guards in the house to use. A few areas needed some deeper cleaning. Overall it was a perfect house for a large family/group.

Dear Ruby. Thank you so much for your booking and for taking the time to write a great review - the house is definitely a good size, perfect for children and the location is perfect.
I'm sorry that you found a couple of areas not as clean as they should be and I've spoken to the cleaning company about this - it is rare that the house is not cleaned to a high standard (according to the reviews). Thank you again, best wishes Lizzie
Spent a brilliant weekend in this period house in the lovely seaside town of Sheringham. The accommodation was perfect for a family of 3 generations, ranging in age from 3 to 75 years. The rooms are spacious, beds comfortable and kitchen very well equipped. Space in 2 reception rooms with toys & games for children was fabulous. Parking in the area no trouble and the walk to the beach just a few minutes. Thanks for everything, Lizzie and Kay !
(Just to say, the listing for ‘popular amenities’ needs amending as there is no BBQ grill at the property).
