ACCOMMODATION

Kitchen
This light and airy hand-painted country style kitchen with black granite work surface, comes fully equipped with a range style cooker with 8 gas burner hobs, a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and all the culinary equipment that you would require to express your culinary talents.

The pine kitchen table comfortably seats 8 for those cosy family meals and round the table banter.

There are French doors at either end, so that breakfast may be taken on the east facing veranda while the sun rises and drinks may be taken on the west facing veranda whist watching the sunset over the field.

Living-room
Again, this room has 2 French doors that open onto the veranda, which subsequently leads to the garden. So sit back on one of the 2 large comfortable sofas by the large woodburner and watch your children or dogs play safely in the garden. There is also a 21” television, DVD player and a selection of games for your entertainment.

Bedrooms
All the bedrooms are furnished to provide that relaxed homely feel and sufficient storage for your belongings during your stay.
Downstairs:
•Double room. Ranch style double bed with French doors opening onto the west facing veranda.
•Bunk bed room: A great room for children and adults alike. Its windows overlook the rear garden.
Upstairs:
•The Master Double: This spacious room that has French doors that open to far reaching views and a ranch style king size bed will make it hard for you to get up in the morning. A solid wooden cot is provided for infants and the room shares an ensuite with the single bed room.
•The Single Bed Room: This has two ranch style single beds and is again an ideal room for either adults or children.

The Ensuite, which consists of a shower, toilet and basin, has been designed so that both upstairs bedrooms have direct access. The doors from both rooms are custom made fire doors, which are incredibly thick therefore providing absolute privacy. This layout also means that parents that have their children staying in the single bed room may leave the doors between the rooms open if there are concerns.

Downstairs Bathroom: This consists of a bath with overhead shower, toilet and basin.

Other Facilities:
*Oil fired central heating - The combination boiler provides hot water upon demand.
•Smoke Alarm System
•Fire extinguishers and fire blanket.
•First Aid kit.
•Outside tap and hose.
•Stair gate.
•High chair

Please Note:
•Due to the nature of the cottage, wheelchair users may find that access is difficult.
•Although we welcome dogs, we do request that they are kept off the furniture and not allowed to roam the upstairs of the property.
*Pillows and duvets are provided,but request that guests provide their own bedding.
*Due to the timber structure of the cottage, we gratefully request that smoking is confined to the garden.

Outside Features

The garden is of a good size, ideal for games with the children or dogs. There is outside seating and BBQ.

Location

Samphire Cottage is a semi detached cottage, part of 3 cottages at High Sands Barns, Stiffkey.
It’s setting is truly unique, for you can’t possibly stay any closer to the famous National Trust’s Stiffkey Marshes than this, unless you were to be in a tent!
It is set away from the normal tourist areas of the village providing a tranquil and restful holiday location.

The Stiffkey Village shop and The Red Lion Pub, which serves excellent food is only a short walk away.

Stiffkey beach is tucked away behind the picturesque village of Stiffkey itself.
The beach is reached by a slightly dilapidated road which leads down to a small car park, and for the more intrepid explorers a very bumpy track which can take you further around the coast.
The Stiffkey camp site is also found down this road, and with its amazing proximity to the marshes here is usually booked up well in advance for the summer season. After parking you are greeted by a beautiful area of marshland, with a network of tiny winding paths and meandering creeks with bridges to cross, be warned though, some of these are very wobbly!
For those that manage to navigate the marshes there can be found some wonderfully secluded lagoons with sandy banks, and eventually an area of sand leading down to the sea, where if you are lucky you may be able to spot a seal or two in the water.

The village of Stiffkey has a small shop and The Red Lion pub serves excellent food. For more facilities the seaside town of Wells is not too far away, or venturing inland you can easily reach the bustling market town of Holt.
