Marshgate Burnham Norton
Sleeps 6, from £565 to £1125 per week
Marshgate is a much-loved traditional detached family holiday cottage, peacefully situated very close to Burnham Norton's extensive meadows and marshlands which are rich in bird and wild life and designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The cottage was redecorated throughout during the spring of 2018 and is a lovely base for families and friends wanting to enjoy the beauty of the glorious Norfolk coast in relaxed surroundings. There is plenty of comfortable living space here with a charming sitting room, separate dining room, sunny breakfast room and well-equipped kitchen. Upstairs there are three good-sized bedrooms, with the flexibility to have two super-king size beds and a third twin room. The property has electric night storage heaters, heated towel rail in the bathroom and a woodburner in the sitting room. Guests can enjoy a walled south facing garden which provides a lovely safe place for small children or dogs, with a second large lawned garden on the other side of the cottage which is perfect for ball games. The Georgian village of Burnham Market with its lovely independent shops and galleries, may be reached within a 5 minute drive.

Guest Reviews
It felt comfortable, especially with having young children there. We didn’t feel we were having to tell them not to touch things constantly. The kitchen was well equipped and there was plenty of warm bedding in all the bedrooms. It’s was great to arrive to a few lights being left on inside, as well as the delicious cakes left on the kitchen table and flowers in the sitting room. Nice little touches. Also, having a enclosed garden was an added bonus for our dog. We had a very enjoyable stay at Marshgate. It’s a charming property with lots of character features. It’s also in a great location. We would stay there again.
The Cruse Family - 25/10/2019
Room layout in Marshgate gives separation and lots of privacy, especially in the bedrooms. The walk to the marshes is VERY short and the setting is amazing. We like the most about the property- Charming and rustic, unpretentious and spacious. Privacy between the bedrooms. Location near the marshes. Wonderful gardens. 10 out 0f 10 for cleanliness.
Yager Party - 16/08/2019
Better than Expected. Due to limited information on website at the time (eg lack of photos of kitchen) meant we didn't raise our expectations beforehand. 10 out of 10 for cleanliness We loved the character, comfort, superb location, space, easy and ample parking Difficult to comment on garden at this time of year. Wood burning stove with ample fuel was greatly appreciated.

Better than Expected There was no photo of the kitchen in the brochure, and so was pleasantly surprised at how large the kitchen was. 9 out of 10 for cleanliness and the garden Lived in comfortable atmosphere,quiet location.

10 out of 10 for cleanliness 10 out of 10 for the garden It had an honest charm to it...the owners have not tried to ‘over-style’ or make it too modern for its age.

Burnham Norton
Location
Burnham Norton is one of the seven Burnham villages. This hamlet of pretty cottages is situated down a quiet lane off the main coast road and nestles on the edge of Norton Marsh which is rich in bird and wildlife. There are no shops or pubs in the village but it is a walkers paradise, a 20 minute walk across the fields and marshes will take you for the deserted Norton Beach. At low tide you can wade out to Scolt Head Island or up to Burnham Overy Staithe.
