Thomas
August 2026

“We were well looked after, from the beginning of our stay at owl cottage, to the end of our stay at the cottage.”

We saw plenty of different types of birds, plus falcons, and a hobbie. The icing on our stay in South Repps, was the Red Arrows air display over Cromer Beach.

“Owl Cottage is very comfortable and very well placed for the surrounding beaches and numerous seaside resorts.”

Good facilities and a secure garden for Charlie our dog.The Vernon Arms in the village is well worth a visit,great food. Would definitely recommend a visit to Owl Cottage.

Thank you Richard. I’m pleased you enjoyed your stay Property Owner
Kelvin June 2026

“Owl cottage was very comfortable and located in a quiet area just outside the village but close enough to beaches and inland attractions.”

There were plenty of options to keep us occupied for a week and probably more. The cottage was clean and well prepared for our arrival and Julie in the house next door was welcoming and available for any queries we might have had. The accommodation was just right for four of us and the kitchen well equipped. The large sunny garden is an especially attractive feature. Would certainly look to stay here again if we visit the area.

- Kelvin, June 2026

Thank you Kelvin for your kind feedback. You will be very welcome to visit again should you wish to Property Owner

John June 2026

“Another lovely break at Owl Cottage.”

Perfect for our four legged companion with huge garden play area and almost traffic free lanes. Accommodation comfortable with all facilities except dishwasher, which was OK as we ate out mostly. Excellent position for Cromer and Mundesley. A happy holiday.

- John, June 2026

Thank you for your feedback. As you can appreciate there was not room for a dishwasher and a washing machine so I opted for the latter as I felt it would be more beneficial, especially for families. I’m glad you enjoyed your holiday Property Owner
Peter May 2026

“Everything was fine for our stay, although with combined ages of 173 years, we found the stairs a little challenging, especially the steepness and the turn at the top.”

We would happily return should the occasion arise.

Leighann October 2025

“A wonderful cottage in a great location.”

Julie was lovely and popped in on the first day, we didn't need anything from her during our stay so she left us alone but was only next door should we have had any issues. She was also really accommodating, letting us arrive early on the first day as there was no one leaving that day and had also said there was no rush to check out at 10am on leaving day (although we had left by 9am due to travelling home). The children loved the garden, as did Dave the dog. Comfy beds and a really warm, sweet little cottage as a base to explore Norfolk.

- Leighann, October 2025

Thank you for visiting. I'm glad you all enjoyed your stay Property Owner

“The property felt very peaceful with with beautiful rural views but actually near the village of Southrepps with a useful general convenience store and an excellent pub/restaurant.”

The manager who lives next door made us very welcome. An ideal retreat but within easy distance of the Norfolk coast with it's lovely beaches.

- Dorothy, July 2025

Aww, thank you for your lovely feedback. Glad you enjoyed your break Property Owner
Michele June 2025

“Amazing decorated and stocked cottage.”

Kitch3n was super equipped with everything needed. Possibly knives could do with a sharpen if any feedback needed but it was lo Ely. Linen was fresh and clean and lovely and comfy. Showers are amazing. Cottage manager on hand if needed. Garden is super for dogs and farm gate has mesh for small dogs. We loved it. Waitrose is 10mins away for all shopping needs.

- Michele, June 2025

Thank you, your feedback is much appreciated. It was lovely to meet you both and Bella the dog. Thank you for visiting Owl Cottage. Knives have been sharpened. Property Owner
Paul May 2025

“This suited us down to the ground - really remote and yet with a really nice hostess Julie living next door for any problems - which there weren't.”

I think I've photographed all the owls but can't be 100% sure, and haven't counted them yet. Alas we didn't see a real one. We hesitate to give maximum stars in case too many others find out about it - but it's worth it, and we hope to return for longer once we've got over the journey on Norfolk's appalling road network!

- Paul, May 2025

Thank you for staying. I do hope you are able to return in the future Property Owner
Julian May 2025

“The property is in a very quiet rural location which suits us.”

The garden is large enough to find somewhere sunny to sit at any time of day. Plenty of parking. The house had everything we needed. We walked to the coast along quiet lanes and we walked to the very nice pub in the village, The property manager was very friendly and lived next door. I would recommend Owl Cottage to anyone who likes walking, visiting the coast an loves quiet locations.

- Julian, May 2025

Thank you Julian, I’m glad to hear you enjoyed your stay Property Owner
Les May 2025

“This is a lovely place to stay, great location (but be prepared to travel out).”

Comfy beds great shower and bath. The garden is huge and surrounding area lovely a peaceful. Well equipped kitchen. More likes than dislikes. We would definitely want to return for another stay, when its not glowing a gale.

- Les, May 2025

Thank Les. The weather is unfortunately the one thing I can’t guarantee. I’ll hopefully see you again at some point in the future Property Owner
Belinda September 2024

“Owl cottage is lovely, peaceful and ideal for a total get away from anyone.”

Not far from Cromer, Holt. Sheringham and other places to visit. Julie next door is really nice and friendly. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for your kind comments It was lovely to meet you all Property Owner
James September 2024

“Lovely quiet location .”

Garden was a good size and fully enclosed brilliant for our dog..Everything you need for your stay ,the only thing missing was storage space for any shopping but we managed.The owner lives next door very friendly and helpful with places to visit. Beautiful beaches and woodland walks all nearby .Would definitely stay again

- James, September 2024

Thank you for staying. I’m glad you all enjoyed your break Property Owner
Nina September 2024

“Owl Cottage is very quirky/quaint, adequate enough for us, 3 adults, but we think 5 people would be pushing it.”

The landlady Julie was very kind and helpful, so overall we enjoyed our holiday. The two bungalow dwelling octogenarians managed the steep staircase once a day, so having a downstairs lavatory was helpful to them! Overall a nice holiday let well hidden away, fooled the Sat Nav, a kindly local dustbin man guided us to it!

- Nina, September 2024

Guests are more than welcome to remove the cabinet between the beds and push the beds closer together to give more floor space. Or, if you ask me prior to your stay I will quite happily do this for you Property Owner
Samantha August 2024

“Our family really enjoyed our short break at Owl Cottage.”

Julie was a great host and the accomodation itself was fantastic. Our kids and dog loved the huge patch of lawn. The cottage is perfectly situated so it is far enough away from everything to give us the rural and peaceful getaway we were after but close enough to smaller villages and bigger towns to go do a few fun things.

- Samantha, August 2024

Thank you for your lovely comments. I'm glad you enjoyed the tranquility of our rural retreat Property Owner
Steven August 2024

Luke July 2024

“A lovely stay at a fantastic property.”

The house was beautifully kept and extremely clean when we arrived. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The location is very tranquil and only a short distance from Overstrand and Mundesley beach. It also has a large garden for children to have a good play in. All in all, a great place for a family holiday.

- Luke, July 2024

Thank you for your lovely feed back and comments. I am so pleased you had a nice stay Property Owner
Catriona June 2024

“We had a wonderful two weeks at 'Owl Cottage'.”

Julie gave us a warm welcome and the cottage was in a most peaceful location and we were delighted with the amenties of the cottage. It was also perfect for our dog. We look forward to a return trip.

- Catriona, June 2024

Thank you. It was lovely to meet you You will be most welcome to return Julie Property Owner
April June 2024

“Lovely house in beautiful surroundings, very peaceful and only a short drive from the coast, towns and villages.”

Julie, the property manager, lives next door and was very welcoming and suggested a few places for us to go. Really lovely stay, weather was on our side! But can’t fault the cottage or location for what we wanted. Lovely big garden for the dog and surrounded by fields with some great sunsets!

- April, June 2024
Paul June 2024

“This is the most perfect get away from it all holiday.”

Set in beautifully tranquil setting. All you hear is Skylarks and lots of other birds. My idea of heaven. Thank you Julie for our lovely holiday From Janet, Paul, Mouse and Tig the dog x

- Paul, June 2024

Thank you all for staying. The skylarks are still singing, the sun is shining and the yellowing corn in the fields is gently blowing in the warm breeze. Thank you for visiting. I was happy to know you’d all had a lovely break. Hopefully you will be able to return in the future Julie Property Owner
Peter February 2024

“When we arrived we were greeted in a friendly manner and shown the basics of the house.”

It is a solid and cosy building well presented and well equipped.. You have to remember it was February when we went but we were never cold. The central heating works well and there was always plenty of hot water. My only criticism would be that the double bed could have been wider and the furniture in the conservatory was a little on the small side too. It is well situated and only a couple of miles to the sea side. Apart from that I would rate this property very highly.

- Peter, February 2024

Thank you Peter for your feedback. When I renovated the property it was my plan to put a king size bed in but upon measuring the room it would limit the access around the bed. Sykes stipulate that on a double bed you must be able to access at either side.so a larger bed wouldn’t work in the space I take on board your comment about the conservatory furniture, I originally bought it so it could be used indoors or outdoors Property Owner
Thomas November 2023

“Really lovely property on a farm.”

Well equipped kitchen and we liked the owl theme. Powerful shower. Convenient location for driving to Cromer and other nearby coastal towns/villages. Julie was friendly and easy to get hold of. The only downside for us was soft mattresses but this is a personal preference.

- Thomas, November 2023

I have invested in some decent memory foam mattress toppers so hopefully this will solve the problem Thank you for visiting Property Owner
Alan September 2023

“We had a lovely holiday at Owl Cottage.”

It had everything we could need, very comfortable just like home from home. A nice big safe garden ideal for our dog. It’s very rural, peaceful and quiet in beautiful surrounding countryside. Lovely walks, The Vernon Arms pub in the village is great with good food. Julie the property manager was on hand next door and was very helpful. We would definitely visit again.

Jennifer November 2022

“Lovely home away from home.”

Booked last minute and super helpful property manager (and next door neighbour) had everything ready for our arrival the next day. We were there in November so couldn’t use the sun room that much except on the one sunny morning we had but otherwise very cosy and comfy.

- Jennifer, November 2022
Louise August 2022

“A beautiful, clean and well stocked cottage.”

The surroundings are peaceful yet close enough to local attractions by car. Our host Julie was really lovely nothing was to much trouble she even brought her pet chicken and dog over so our children could cuddle them. We would recommend this cottage to anyone and we hope to stay again soon.

- Louise, August 2022

Thank you for your lovely comments, it was a pleasure to meet you all. I hope to see you again Property Owner
Wendy August 2022

“We had a wonderful week in a simply super property.”

Our host Julie was most helpful. It’s quiet location was exactly what we wanted and it’s convenience for the beaches at Mundesley and Cromer was great.

- Wendy, August 2022

Thank you Wendy. I hope you are able to return next year Property Owner
Rachel July 2022

“We had a brilliant stay at Owl Cottage.”

It is very secluded, peaceful, comfortable, beautifully decorated and clean. Chickens occasionally wandering around the farmyard give a lovely feel as well and there were swallows nesting in the barn. It’s lovely to have so much space on the farmyard and garden to play, and it’s nice to wander into the fields for a walk. The cottage itself is great, all newly refurbished and has two new bathrooms - the showers are fab! The owner is very friendly and helpful - nothing is too much trouble. We would love to stay again - thank you!

- Rachel, July 2022

Thank you Rachel. It was lovely to meet you all. My naughty girls (chickens) probably loved all the attention too. I’m pleased you all had such a good time and it would be lovely to see you again Julie Property Owner

Thank you for staying, pleased to know you both (and Douglas) enjoyed your stay Property Owner
Claire May 2022

“Owl cottage was just what we all needed.”

A beautifully refurbished cottage, set in a lovely quiet rural location, yet a small drive from Cromer, Trimingham and Bacton beach. We have two teenagers so having WiFi was ideal, so too was the great size garden to kick a ball about in. Julie was really helpful and informative and on hand if needed.

- Claire, May 2022

Thank you for being our very first guests and being my Guinea pigs!, Lovely to meet you all and to know you had an enjoyable holiday You’re welcome back anytime Julie Property Owner
