On the ground floor, the comfortable sitting room becomes a haven for relaxation with a wood burning stove that emits cosy warmth and romantic ambient light on chillier evenings.

Fabulous stay in lovely cottage

Sleepy Gull is a lovely, well equipped cottage in a great location. It is a warm, welcoming, comfortable house in a quiet location and the welcome pack was the best I have received. It's a great place to stay if you're walking or birdwatching and well placed for visiting most places in North Norfolk. We would recommend it highly and will definitely be returning for another stay.
