The courtyard outside even boasts a gas barbecue so you can cook and eat alfresco on one of the lovely balmy Norfolk evenings, should the mood take you. Tear yourself away from this gorgeous hideaway however and you will find yourself within easy reach of the stunning North Norfolk coastline. Head to Cromer and stroll along the prom or the beach. Do make sure you take the time for a coffee or lunch on the famous pier and undertake a spot of people watching, or perhaps check out one of the seasonal end of pier shows. Or head West from here and enjoy a spot of crab lining on Blakeney Quay, where you can also take a seasonal boat trip out to see the seals. In fact, you will find the coastline littered with pretty seaside towns and villages boasting salt and clay marshes, picturesque quays and a mix of sand and shingle beaches. History buffs will be delighted to find Felbrigg Hall, the Blickling, Holkham, Houghton and Sandringham Estates along with North Norfolk Railway, the Thursford, with its famous Christmas Spectacular, and the Muckleburgh collection along with a host of small, independent museums all within easy reach. Nature lovers will enjoy RSPB Cley Marshes, Pensthorpe Nature Reserve and Sheringham Park which are all close by too. You can even be in the heart of the broads in under thirty minutes and join a water tour or charter you own day boat and drift along these much-celebrated waterways. In fact, The Annex at Keeper’s Retreat is well positioned for all three of Norfolk’s highlights, the coast, the Broads and indeed the Medieval city of Norwich. All in all a great year-round choice for your coastal break.

This property truly deserves the award it had for 2023/24 for People's Choice. The owners, Deborah and David, responded immediately to our phone on arriving at the property vicinity and stood at the entrance to ensure that we knew where we were going. They were cheerful and welcoming. The property is lovely, outstandingly clean, tidy and had everything we could wish for to make our stay comfortable. They always responded if we needed them. We felt safe and cosy in the Annex. The welcome pack included lovely fresh eggs from their chickens. It's a good centre to reach coastal, inland or city venues. It's very quiet and peaceful. It's a home from home and we would happily stay there again.Jassy and Allan ##### Jasmine Dowson This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Russell 6 Oct 2025 #### L Lovely annex host’s very friendly nice shower would definitely recommend ##### John Russell ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Derwent Manor Boutique Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Consett-Hotels-The-Derwent-Manor-Boutique-Hotel.h9535.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kings Head Inn ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-The-Kings-Head-Inn.h112498781.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Manchester-Airport.h26104.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ram at Tivetshall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-The-Old-Ram-Coaching-Inn.h11899341.Hotel-Information) > > [New!
