An inviting holiday home that is well presented throughout. Furnished with period features creating a modern and contemporary retreat, this cottage is sure not to disappoint. Bedroom with double bed views over the very green Beeston common. Enjoy a walk in shower after a day full of sand and salty sea, or the open plan kitchen and dining area to entertain and switch off.

After a very cold start the cottage warmed up and we had a lovely stay

Overall we had a great time at the cottage but first impressions were poor - in near sub zero temperatures the heating had not been put on, there was no wood for the stove and the freezer door was frozen open. A few essential items like kitchen roll were also missing or in very short supply. Got the heating on and by the next day the cottage was cozy and comfortable. It was clean, spacious and quite well set up for dining and cooking although on day 4 the microwave stopped working. Right by the common and an easy walk into town or up onto the coastal path and lots of places to walk/visit nearby.
Keys Cottages were very responsive and offered discount on future stay because of our concerns.

lovely cottage, great location with a common outside the door for dog walks and close to the beach and the town. the cottage was well furnished and comfortable but the bathroom was very disappointing as a lot of black mould present which had apparently been present for some time according to previous guest reviews and had not been removed plus I had to repair the shower which was just running down the wall and not going up into the shower head. Also, one person stayed in the twin bed room but only one bed had been made up and the other was unmade with tired looking pillows and duvet piled up on it; I have never experienced this before and combined with the black mould made us feel that they couldnt really be bothered to make us welcome.

An excellent cottage in an excellent location handy for the town but quiet.

The cottage is clean and well appointed and very comfortable.
We have already recommended it to friends and are considering coming again next year

We had a lovely holiday thank you

A well located cottage pleasantly quiet and yet within easy reach of the town and good local bus services. The cottage was clean and tidy and well equipped with everything needed and could easily be moved from good to excellent by attention to a few details such as re-painting the bathroom ceiling and installing an extract fan with an overrun feature to reduce the problems of many such ceilings suffering discolouration from moisture. We particularly liked features such as the garden gates and fences which made it easy to contain the dog and the easy access to the common for his short walks. I suspect parking may be an issue at the busiest times of the year although the proximity of several un restricted nearby streets should mean few difficulties and our impressions may have been influenced by the significant gas main replacement works being undertaken at the time of our visit with vehicles displaced by road closures.

This was our second visit to poppy cottage. It's a great location if you have kids or dogs as it's straight out onto the common and you can follow the stream down to the town, about 10 min walk to the town centre.
Good size kitchen diner, well equipped but do wish someone would fix all the draws before they fall to bits completely! Not sure if the dishwasher is working properly? Also the TV remote a bit dodgy (tried new batteries). Great to have the humax box though for catch up and recording.
Comfortable sofas and beds... I think in this day and age it would be standard to have pillow protectors though.
Plenty of parking out front and it's easy to drive out along the coast road to all the other villages or inland to Fellbrig, Blickling etc... Lots to see and do in the area. We went to see the seals at Horsey, great to see all the pups hauled up on the beach.




Very much enjoyed another stay in this cottage

We have stayed in this cottage several times. It is on Beeston Common and you can see the Bump from the windows. It's lovely and quiet but within easy reach of the shops. Lovely and clean and spacious. It has a small courtyard at the rear with table and chairs and use of bbq.

Comfortable cottage in good location. Very quiet. Problem with dishwasher. Basic kitchen utensils - knives were blunt. Stairs were very steep for people with mobility issues.

Poppy Cott is a delightful little cottage in a great location. Very easy parking right outside and a great place to walk from, either over the common, onto The Bump and beyond or down into the town and beach. The cottage is in good condition and has very comfy furniture and beds.

Beautiful end of terrace cottage with a bijoux courtyard garden at the back with patio furniture and room for the dogs to Sun puddle looking out at the allotments. The house has an amazing kitchendiner all fully equipped with dishwasher and washing machine. Beautiful real fire place in the dining room . Very comfy sitting room with gorgeous sofas and a log burner. Then out to the stairs that are very narrow and steep, which were a bit of a challenge to walk up due to having mobility issues. Amazing double bedroom facing the Beeston Bump. I mean who wouldn't want to wake up and see that gorgeous scenery?! Bathroom has a huge shower, but the whole room could do with a freshen up.
All in all a lovely cottage set on common land so ample dog walking straight from the door.




Very enjoyable stay.

Poppy Cottage was larger than impression given in photos. It was in an ideal location for both human and canine guests, re. walking on common/Beeston Bump, and access quickly to town. Knowing the area well; Sheringham is an ideal base from which to to explore the North Norfolk Coast, and inland towns/villages. There are some superb eateries of all types within easy reach. I would recommend No. 10, Sheringham/The Two Lifeboats, Sheringham/The Starfish, Sheringham, and Wells Crab House Seafood Restaurant, Wells-next-the-Sea.
The accommodation was comfortable and warm. A couple of small queries, were dealt with very quickly by Louise at Keys.

This cottage is nicely situated overloooking common land at the front and only 10 minutes walk to the town centre or the beach. There are allotment gardens at the back - nice to look out over but not attached to the cottage. Ths was our second summer holiday visit. First time weather was great, this time cold and windy. But the cottage was comfortable and cosy (heating worked well and there is a wood stove we did not use) and there is lots to do in the region so a good holiday. However, the cottage has some drawbacks. However our score on condition is 3, cleanliness 4 because there is some damp (downstairs cupboards, upstairs bathroom), and the kitchen is in need of improvements eg worn wood counter, ktichen sink tap flexes, drainer doesn't drain very well, dshwasher not completely effecive. DIning area and bathroom lighting dim. Bathroom sink drain not easy to clean, WC not flushing 100%, extractor fan not venitnig effectively (so mould forming on tiles). So our feeling was it is time for the owners to look to look around and upgrade the facilities. This has, for example, has been done outside with new paving and outdoor furntiture since a previous visit. So hopefully the indoor work will happen soon. The service form Keys was very good (missing plates replaced, and a clean migweight quilt provide witin 24 hours of requesting).

Poppy Cott is situated on the pretty and quiet Beeston Common in Sheringham, a town which has good local facilities, including shops and cafes as well as some good walks, all within walking distance of the cottage. An excellent base for visiting North Norfolk.

For us, a great location with a lovely view of Beeston Bump and easy access to the North Norfolk coastal path. Nice to have an enclosed courtyard garden - a real afternoon suntrap - comfy outdoor furniture.
Quiet, and peaceful location. Comfortable beds & lounge. Well-equipped kitchen but toaster is nearly past its best (not a great problem for us!).
Wi-Fi was excellent.
Great to have parking right outside the cottage.
Easy walking distance to the town of Sheringham.
Great public transport links.
Will definitely stay here again!!

Poppy Cottage is in an ideal position if you have a dog as it is on Beeston Common with direct access to the Coastal walk. The cottage was lovely and warm, being very comfortable, The kitchen diner is a big well equipped room. Parking is outside the property. We would certainly recommend this cottage to anyone to have a lovely stay.
