West End Cottage is a traditional flint fisherman’s cottage in Sheringham, having been built in the 1870s and extended in the 1960s, and is a short stroll from the town’s original fishing slopes. This end-terraced property was built originally for one of the oldest fishing families in the area. Constructed from the flint found in abundance on the shores, this must have been a substantial and comfortable home for the times, for what was an up and coming fish merchant and his extended family.
There are colourful rumours about how West End Cottage was linked to smuggling, but rest assured that all is now above board and sitting pretty, ready for a great holiday. You will find yourself so close to the sea that quite literally at the end of the street upon which West End Cottage is situated, there is the old lifeboat the Henry Ramey Upcher.
In fact, you are just a few steps from both Sheringham’s glorious beach (a section of which is lifeguard supervised in high season) and its pretty town centre. There are so many things to see and do, and places to eat and drink that you may be tempted to park in one of the property’s two private, on-site parking spaces and stay put in Sheringham, where you can even take a steam train ride along the coast on the North Norfolk Railway.
Sheringham boasts a host of popular events throughout the year, as does its neighbour Cromer, where you will find a unique Edwardian promenade, pier, the Amazona Zoo and cinema. Close by also lies Sheringham Park with over 1,000 acres to explore, a must see for walkers and nature lovers alike.
Venture a little further and find yourself in Norwich in under an hour and at the gateway to the Norfolk Broads in 45 minutes. The North Norfolk Coast is of course also a must for avid bird watchers, and sea angling is available nearby. Sheringham Golf Course is widely regarded as one of the most scenic courses in the country, so don’t forget your clubs. There really is so much to do that you will be so glad you chose West End Cottage to relax and unwind in after a busy day, maybe by the multi-fuel burner or in warmer seasons in the lovely enclosed, private garden where you can relax to the sound of the waves on the pebbles. Bliss! Beach 100 yards. Shop and pub 250 yards, restaurant 100 yards.
