The historic village of Mundesley was listed in the Doomsday Book under the name of Muleslai. Today, Mundesley is a small, busy, thriving coastal
village (population 2,500) with much to offer including a 9 hole Golf Course, Driving Range, Crazy Golf, cafe’s, pubs and shops. You can enjoy a
relaxing break, breathing in the wonderful sea air. (Visitors say they usually can’t stay awake past 9 p.m. as the wonderful sea air is so refreshing
and calming)! It’s so easy to fall in love with this beautiful seaside retreat, away from the hustle and bustle of life. Try it for a long weekend or week
and you will want to return again.
Villages along the Coast (and slightly inland)
There are many pretty villages along this coast & slightly inland incl. Burnham Market, Cley, Holt, Letheringsett, Salthouse, Stiffkey, Cromer,
Fakenham, Sheringham, Wells, Cley and Blakeney.
The long stretches of sand are beautiful and at low tide shallow pools are left on the beach, making it ideal for younger children. During the Summer
the main part of the beach is lifeguard patrolled. People of all ages enjoy the beach, to swim, surf, play, walk, picnic or just relax in a deckchair, its a
lovely way to spend some of your holiday.
Historically, the sea has provided Mundesley with a fishing industry, and you can still see local fisherman putting to sea today. There are numerous
original fishermen’s cottages sprinkled around the village.
Mundesley has a variety of shops providing almost everything you could need including: Post Office, Florist, Chemist, Greengrocer, Butcher,
Ladies/Mens clothing, Gift shop and Spar.
A walk around Mundesley will reveal several tea rooms, fish/chips & a Chinese takeaway. Good food is also served at most of the pubs and hotels in
the village. Some of our guests have recommended The Ship Pub for good food. The Kingfisher Cafe in Walcott (3 miles) is a lovely clean very
friendly cafe with good food and wonderful sea views. Well worth a visit. The Kingfisher fish & chip shop is next door to the cafe (eat in/takeaway).
Also excellent.
Mundesley has an excellent 9 hole Golf Course & Driving Range which welcomes visitors. Telephone 01263 720095.
Crazy Golf is available for all the family across from the beach.
There are miles of ‘quiet’ lanes for walking/cycling. Weavers Way is an old railway track, ideal for cycling and walking. Part of it runs adjacent to
“Pigney’s Wood”, between Knapton & North Walsham and is a beautiful natural park for walking and picnics. Bacton Woods has trails for cycling,
walking & picnics.
Car Boot Sales - Wednesday mornings in Gold Park (May to September)
There are numerous Car Boot sales along the Norfolk coast during the summer months.
The North Norfolk Coast is a birdwatchers paradise, and has been designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Some of our Guests comments:
It has been a pleasure to be the first to rent this lovely house! You really have thought of everything to make our stay in Mundesley perfect. Many thanks
and we look forward to coming back very soon.
A beautiful house! It really feels like a home. You have fantastic taste and seem to have anticipated our every need. Thank you for enabling me to have my
very best New Year ever, being here with family in such a gorgeous village. I really don’t want to go back to London and hope to return soon.
A lovely clean, modern and comfortable holiday home. Sue was very helpful and has thought of all the little extras which make a holiday special. We really
appreciated the ‘welcome pack’ - great to be able to make a cup of tea on arrival! From the ease of parking through to the proximity of the town and beach
the holiday was great. The children loved the clean, reasonably quiet beaches and the small local park, and especially their ‘big bouncy beds’ and own tv.
We’ve had a fantastic holiday and would recommend Mundesley and particularly Fireman’s Cottage to everyone.
Very last minute booking but not our last choice. Very impressed. Sue has really thought of everything - welcome pack was a real bonus. This really feels
like a “home from home” rather than a holiday home. We hope that everybody who stays here looks after everything so others can enjoy.
Wow, an amazing house, everything you could possibly need catered for. We had a totally fab holiday and amazing HOT weather. Thanks to all.
A great holiday, very well equipped. Home from home. The hospitality package & flowers gave it that personal touch.
Had a great holiday. Lovely accommodation. Hospitality welcome a nice touch. We had lovely weather.
We’ve had a marvellous week! The house is immaculate yet so homely - great to be provided with essentials (like washing up liquid/foil/pegs etc!). We
enjoyed Mundesley - the beach, golf, park, windmill and takeaways, all within 10 minutes. Really appreciated the dishwasher, sky tv and wifi - made the
holiday a luxury.
Very well equipped & comfortable house. We were a very last minute booking but Sue had everything ready and was really well organised. We’ve really
enjoyed our stay in Norfolk - the Sky Package made it for our teenage son.
We’ve all had a lovely week. We found the house very comfortable, well equipped and child friendly, which we needed as our party included 5 children
from 2-8 years. Thank you for the welcome package which was the best we have ever had anywhere.
Had a great week. House was lovely, well equipped and comfortable. Had nice weather so made use of the great beach only 5 minutes walk away. Lovely

Lovely house, comfortable and well equipped with everything you might need. We particularly appreciated the broadband and Sky Plus. We will definitely
come again.
Fantastic facilities for us all to enjoy and the little touches made it so much more enjoyable.
A well equipped and comfortable home. The welcome pack is a welcome treat - much appreciated. The broadband and sky package make the house feel
like home. Perhaps the best compliment we can pay is that we felt at home from the moment we arrived. Many thanks for a wonderful break.
Can’t believe it’s a year for Fireman’s Cottage as a “rental” - it all looks immaculate. A real touch of luxury for us. Mundesley is really welcoming and the
kids loved the beach.
Such a pretty holiday home with all needs anticipated. Lovely furniture and brilliant touches such as the broadband, tv in every bedroom and a bathrobe on
the back of every door. Plus the welcome pack was much appreciated. Thank you for providing us with a lovely home from home for us to see in the New
Year.
House was lovely with everything you could wish for on a break. Very comfortable beds and great kitchen. Look forward to another visit.

Obviously a very carefully planned holiday home. Everything we needed was provided. A lovely week!
A fantastic week - Adults and children we were one, we so enjoyed our time in Mundesley a lovely place to be. Uncomplicated and a very simple
experience of what family U.K. seaside holidays should be ... the house is just great for this experience. We will return again.

welcome and the welcoming goodies and flowers.
Great house, well equipped and very comfortable, enjoyed our stay here. Children enjoyed being so close to the beach, no long car journey. The welcome
pack was much appreciated. Wish we could have stayed for longer.
