History
Thornham is named after the Old English meaning ‘homestead or village where the thorn trees grow’. The village has a rich history and many of the buildings date back to the 16th Century. Archaeological evidence dates as far back as the Bronze Age. The village had a prosperous harbour 200 years ago and a fascinating story of a smugglers Inn and a bandit’s hideout.

There are many other villages to explore within a short distance like Brancaster, Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham with their great family beaches. Brancaster Staithe is popular with sailors and courses and lessons can be taken here or at Morston. You can learn to be a smuggler, explore the coast or sail the creeks with The Coastal Exploration Company, or take a seal trip to Blakeney Point from Morston Quay. Dalegate Market in Burnham Deepdale is a nice area to visit the shops or visit the quintessential village of Burnham Market where you can source most Norfolk delicacies from the independent and quaint shops that surround the village green.

Hi, we are regular visitors to Norfolk staying in all different sized properties. This visit was just me and my husband and dog so we chose a small cosy cottage Sunset View. The cottage was nicely done with coastal theme and the location was great with beautiful views and lots on our doorstep.Our only thing to point out was that the radiators upstairs were not working, fortunately there was an electric heater we found in a cupboard. Lots of long walks, mussels at the lifeboat and a fabulous Sunday lunch at the Duck inn Stanhoe!.
Cottage was beautiful we loved the location. Cottage was perfect and cozy . The walks to the local pub and to the beach acrosss the marshes.
Sunset views. Fantastic weather and location. Amazing walks on our doorstep. Brilliant location and cottage was very beautifully presented!
Perfect location and sun sets.Great walks to the beach. Two excellent pubs in walking distance. Great to sit outside looking over the fields with a glass of fizz watching sunset. We had a fantastic time as always in Norfolk with Sowerby's holiday cottages.
Fantastic location. Couldn't be better.
A cosy little cottage. We enjoyed the great view across the marshes, not only at sunset but in the early morning light too. Whilst we ate in a couple of times the Orange Tree and White Horse (Brancaster Staithes) were great eating spots. A very relaxing stay. The cottage was clean and well equipped for our needs. Good outside space with the garden being enclosed - a bonus when accompanied by our JRT. The off-road parking was a benefit and was big enough for a large SUV. We found the location really quiet, peaceful and therefore very relaxing.

Electric Vehicle charging
Cars may only be charged if there is an EV charging point fitted at the property.

Due to insurance purposes, guests must never charge their car using a standard outdoor plug or an extension cable linking to a domestic plug.
