Our edit of the best AirBnBs in Norfolk
The beaches of north Norfolk are surely some of the best in Britain, wide stretches of golden sand or pebbles that draw in a large crowd of holidaymakers year-round and are as dramatic in summer as they are in winter. The villages and towns to head for – Blakeney, Holt, Wells-next-the-Sea – can often be near impossible to find accommodation in, especially in high season, so plan ahead and use our guide of the best AirBnBs in Norfolk to get ahead of the game.
1/8Holkham Hall
For a slightly quirky but delightfully rustic stay in a near unbeatable location, this studio barn on the Holkham Estate is the one to book. It's about as close to the windswept sand of Holkham beach as you can get and the building dates from 1880 and is within striking distance of Wells-next-the-Sea. It's a step back in time, but with breakfast and commerce thrown in.
Sleeps: 2
From: £105 per night
2/8Burnham Thorpe
This three bedroom house would be a perfect base for a large family, as the sleeping arrangements are split into a double bedroom and two twin rooms. The house was refurbished in 2015 to retain its period character as the old bakery in the charming village where it's located.
Sleeps: 8
From: £99 per night
3/8South Creake
Five miles inland from the coast, this traditional flint cottage is well positioned to take in all areas of north Norfolk. Inside, the space is an elegant mix of panelling, muted colours and antiques, with checkerboard tiling in the bathroom and wooden floors throughout.
Sleeps: 4
From: £165 per night
4/8Burnham Thorpe
If outdoor space – and lots of it – are key for you, Rose Cottage in the lovely village of Burnham Thorpe is ideal with its sprawling lawned garden spread across two layers with multiple relaxing and dining spots. Inside, think exposed bricks, feature fireplaces and soaring ceilings in the two bedrooms in the eaves.
Sleeps: 4
From: £141 per night
5/8Holt
The name 'Duck Cottage' implies that this two bedroom house will be particularly sweet, and it certainly is. A double bedroom and twin room room occupy the upstairs, alongside two bathrooms, while downstairs has a cosy living room, kitchen and dining room that open out onto a beautifully planted and spacious private garden.
Sleeps: 5
From: £124 per night
6/8Wells-next-the-Sea
If you like your seaside cottages with a lighter, brighter feel than usual, then this Wells house is the one to book. A judicious use of bold colour adds vibrancy to the space, which has a few nautical notes in the decoration, alongside chintzy florals and a plethora of prints on the walls. What's more, it's a mere stroll from the harbour.
Sleeps: 3
From: £97 per night
7/8Great Bircham
This four bedroom property has a lot to offer, thanks to the extension that holds the beamed living space with doors looking out onto the lush gardens across one side. There's a kitchen and dining room attached to that, with another living room in another part of the house and four bedrooms and two bathrooms up top.
Sleeps: 6
From: £172 per night
8/8Blakeney
Squashy tub armchairs, a country kitchen and dining room, beams and flagstone floors all add to the charm that Pear Tree Cottage oozes. It's a cool idyll in summer and cosy bolthole in colder weather, with a conservatory and garden for lapping up every bit of sunshine. Even better then that it's in one of Norfolk's prettiest seaside villages.
Sleeps: 4
From: £85 per night
