About this house rental
This comfortable two bedroom bungalow with sunny conservatory is a perfect bolthole for couples, friends or a small family who are looking for a quiet self-catering retreat to enjoy any time of year, in a great location.
Dolphin is just a short walk from the centre of Burnham Market village and also in easy reach of countryside walks and some of the best beaches along this coast. Located in a small cul-de-sac and tucked away, yet an easy walk into the hub-bub of this ever-popular village, you will love how easy it is to explore the whole of the North Norfolk coast from this convenient detached cottage.
A short two mile drive or walk away, is the pretty sailing harbour and village of Burnham Overy Staithe where you can enjoy walking out to what is often a deserted beach ... otherwise hop in the car and head to Brancaster beach, Wells-next-the-Sea or Holkham, where you will find endless miles of soft sand. Or bring your bike and cycle the quiet lanes where you will see birdlife and wildlife in abundance.
The coasthopper bus stops at various locations in the village and offers endless opportunity to combine a long walk with a lift back! Make sure you leave time to enjoy a pub lunch en-route, with so many to choose from, you will be spoilt for choice and most are dog-friendly! And of course dogs are welcome on the Coasthopper bus too!
Dolphin Cottage is perfect as a base to explore the whole North Norfolk coast whatever time of year you choose to visit.
Additional Information
Four well behaved dogs are welcome (small additional charge). More dogs by arrangement.
Access Note: There are steps into the garden from the conservatory, and step up to the patio.

Dolphin cottage is a spacious, well maintained, and comfortable bungalow with everything you would need. Burnham Market is a pretty village and a good base to explore Norfolk. Unfortunately, for us, our Labrador, Pluto became ill after a lovely walk at Holkham on the Wednesday of our stay and had to spend the next two nights in the vets at Fakenham, just over 10 miles away. Obviously this ruined our holiday and we weren't too happy at paying over £1,800.00 and taking our boy home little better than when he went to the vets two days before. Luckily, after a visit to our own vet in Warwick, he was soon on the mend. So, although our visit to Dolphin was marred, I absolutely loved the cottage. We are booked to return in August, if we can get Pluto to return!

Convenient location
Overall a great place to stay, which worked well for us with a dog and very elderly parents.
Very conveniently located for Burnham Market and the coast. Nice quiet cul-de-sac.
The little touches (dog treats and water, Christmas tree and cakes/ milk) on arrival were very welcome.
The conservatory was a lovely warm place to snuggle up and read a book on a cold, wet winter's day.
If you are looking for a 'character cottage with views' - this isn't the place for you, But if you want a practical, clean, quiet, warm place all on one level - this is perfect. And the enclosed garden is great for dogs.
We had a bit of an issue with the heating- but the owner helped us out very quickly.
We had a lovely refreshing break - thank you.

Good location, cosy and comfortable
Several positives in that the cottage was comfortable, in a good location, quiet. Nice conservatory and safe garden for the dog. The heating worked well and plenty of hot water.
The negatives were standard of cleanliness, several cobwebs, Bath mat mouldy, standard of towels and pots and pans the poorest in any cottage we have ever stayed in.

Lovely Little Bungalow in a Great Location
Dolphin is in a fantastic location, just a few minutes walk into the centre of Burnham Market.
It is surprisingly roomy and well equipped. Sitting in the conservatory is very relaxing.
Safe, enclosed garden for our puppy.

Perfect location for a relaxed break.
We were looking for a comfortable dog friendly property close to facilities and with off road parking. The Dolphin provided all of this and more. Short walk to shops and pub. Long walks around some stunning scenery. Can really recommend this as a place to stay.

Four day break along the Norfolk coast
Booked Dolphin as we'd not explored this part of the North Norfolk coast. Initially a little concerned that the bungalow was on a housing estate (of sorts) but we needn't have worried as many of the properties seem to be holiday lets.
A small two bedroom bungalow, with all the essentials and less than two minutes from the local mini-market shop made for a decent location. Frustrating being woken on Thursday (and Friday) morning by workmen rebuilding the bungalow just two doors away but, in a few weeks that should be complete.
Regular criticism of most holiday lets nowadays is the lack of USB charging points (we do carry plug in adapters) for phones, watches, shavers etc. (Owners please note) but this is not specifically aimed at Dolphin - it's most lets.
The Globe, a few hundred yards walk, is great for a meal.
The key test: would we stay there again? … Yes, absolutely!

Wonderful stay over Christmas
We very much enjoyed our stay in Burnham Market over Christmas. The property is ideally located, only a short walk into the town but in a quiet cul-de-sac and a short drive to the lovely beaches of north Norfolk.
I was concerned about cooking Christmas dinner and whether the property would have all the required utensils but should not have worried, the kitchen was really well stocked.
The Christmas tree was a fabulous surprise, as was the food hamper (including doggy treats!) from the owners and the Christmas cake from Norfolk Hideaways.
The small enclosed garden was ideal for our dog.

Bungalow good Garden not good
Bungalow was very good had every thing we needed , however the garden was in a bad state , grass not cut , weeds , nettles and brambles growing everywhere even had a hanging basket of weeds ..when complained the owner said the hanging basket was of ornamental grass and they liked the brambles because you get blackberries from them.

Loved our Norfolk break
Dolphin was perfect. We had a lovely rest and with beautiful weather we could ask for no more. The little touch of dog bowl and arrival treats for our dogs was lovely. We really needed the rest and The Dolphin and surrounding area delivered this for us. Thank you

Great location!
Our weeks stay with our dog was good. The coast hopper buses stopped in the village just down the road.
A DVD player would be a good idea as TV reception wasn't at all good while we were there, could have been the hot weather?
The location of Dolphin was good as it was on the outskirts of the village, so it was quiet.

Well located gem
Great dog friendly living space in this beautifully refurbished bungalow a stones throw from the centre of Burnham Market. The location is private and peaceful.

Fantastic location, spacious quiet property
A few minutes walk into Burnham Market, fantastic location. Property spotless upon arrival. Very dog friendly and it was lovely to have the conservatory. The location was so peaceful too. We would return.

Comfortable, clean and tidy
Property was clean and tidy. Decor fine. We lived mainly in the conservatory which was relaxing. The settee could have been more comfortable. Kitchen was basic but functional. Bathroom was good, shower good. Beds comfortable. Garden could have been tidier, in particular the front as there is a rose bush which overhung the walkway into property.

Our stay at Dolphin in Burnham Market
We enjoyed the week we spent in Dolphin. The weather was brilliant and we didn't need coats for most of the week.
The garden was very restful, particularly with a glass of something cool.
The bungalow was in a good position for groceries and the village has three very good eating places.
Bus services to and from the village were very good and always arrived on time.
The owners were very helpful when we needed a TV reset and would definitely return another year.

The bungalow was clean and beautifully decorated .
There were only the two of us and our two Border Terriers so had plenty of room . We felt very comfortable and relaxed throughout the week, a home from home .
A perfect location for exploring everywhere up and down the North Norfolk coast.
