The location was fantastic - a short walk to a beautiful beach and the property itself was lovely and very well equipped although the walls were somewhat paper thin and the stairs to upstairs are virtually perpendicular - fine for us but would be problematic for elderly guests or those with leg / hip injuries. It was also literally a 2 minute walk to the corner shop which was very handy.

The key safe is about 1 foot from the ground - really inconvenient. There is parking directly outside the property but absolutely no warning that it is completely inappropriate for a big car (range rover) and it's a double yellow (for peak season) on a narrow street. If you stay in peak season god help you with parking if your car doesn't fit the driveway. It is clearly an issue and the locals are aggressive about it and just generally very unfriendly. So while the cottage was very nice and welcoming, the people weren't which really spoiled the holiday. Frankly, I couldn't wait to get home and although we absolutely love Norfolk, we will never stay in Sea (A)Palling again.
