About this house rental

Close-by is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac, within a five minute walk of Blakeney Quay. It is a spacious detached bungalow and we welcombe guests to bring their pets (with an additional charge). Set in a large secure garden ideal for a small family or two couples - somewhere to relax away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The Quay, with its beautiful views over the marshes, tidal creeks and out to sea, is a great place to try your hand at crabbing and a good starting point for a walk along the coastal path. Take a boat trip from nearby Morston to see the seals on Blakeney Point. At Close-by you are within a short stroll of a well stocked supermarket, fishmongers, coffee shops, restaurants, pubs, garage with petrol pumps, art galleries, card/gift shops, play park and tennis courts.

Regular events including Antique and Collectors Fayres and Craft Fairs take place in the Village Hall and the Blakeney Harbour Room is a wonderful venue for live music events along with a friendly bar and delicious Sunday breakfast and Sunday Roast.

Close-by has a large driveway with off-street parking for up to 3 cars - a real rarity in Blakeney! There are two garden areas, one at the front and one at the back, which is secure and south facing and ideal for children and pets. The padlocked garden shed (situated in the back garden) is ideal for those wishing to bring their bicycles on holiday.

Close-By was a beautiful cottage, so close to Blakeney sea front and the Beautiful north Norfolk coast. The accommodation was nicely decorated for Christmas and our host, Juliet had left us lots of lovely treats to make our stay over Christmas that much special. Truly enjoyed our time at Close-By and would recommend it for a wonderful stay.

Lovely place to stay, very convenient for marshes, pubs, local grocery store etc. The bungalow was spotless, well appointed and comfortable. Communication with host was excellent and I greatly appreciated their accommodation of a late extension to my booking. The goodies waiting for us on arrival were a lovely touch. Would definitely stay here again.

Spacious bungalow in a great location just a few minutes walk from the quay and super walks along the marshes. Our stay was comfortable, warm and everything we needed was available with excellent wifi. Thank you for the welcome gifts too, a lovely surprise.
