Fabulous cottage with dogs
We had a week at Perwinkle and it was perfect. Beautiful cottage, great our door space and very comfortable. Loved that everything was so handy in the village and all walkable. A real home from home. Thank you.

Our first Norfolk holiday
Cottage was beautiful and Winterton-on-Sea was a perfect location. Very close to a lovely pet friendly beach (walking distance) that we used every day. Local pub was also used frequently as only just across the road . Will definitely be returning to this idyllic village next year

A perfect cottage for relaxing
Perriwinkle cottage is beautiful, and thoughtfully laid out with everything for comfort and what you need to make it a home from home whilst away. The host Jan is on hand if needed and left some lovely welcome goodies including champagne for New Years eve, with a welcome note. We had a fantastic relaxing stay and were a stones throw from the beach for long winter walks and the Fishermans Return, it was a complete switch off. The garden is also 100% secure for dogs and safe, which is a piece of mind when you have an escape artist Beagle. Thoroughly recommend and will definitely book in the future.

Lovely break
The cottage was comfortable and a good location. The welcome pack was a nice gesture.
Instruction manuals would have been appreciated for the heating and cooker (we are used to gas). The kitchen tap was a small issue but we would definitely book again

Lovely cottage and location
Periwinkle cottage is fantastic. We have stayed in many cottages throughout the UK and Periwinkle is one of our favourites.
We had everything we needed and the welcome cake, sweets and wine was a lovely touch.
Being so close to the dunes and beach was great and we had the best weather during our stay. The dog loved the dunes.
Fishermans Return served good pub food and was great that dogs were welcome.
We will definitely return and thank you for making our stay so easy!

A Perfect Stay at Periwinkle Cottage
We’ve just returned from a truly delightful stay at Periwinkle Cottage, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that every detail had been carefully considered. The cottage was immaculately clean and beautifully presented, creating an instantly welcoming atmosphere.
One of the loveliest surprises was the thoughtful welcome package — a delicious homemade Victoria sponge, fresh milk, and a chilled bottle of prosecco. It was such a charming touch and made us feel right at home. Honestly, what more could you ask for?
The surrounding area is peaceful and picturesque, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The local residents were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall sense of comfort and community.
A special mention must go to the owner, who went above and beyond when my son accidentally left behind some valuables. They kindly retrieved the items and sent them back to us — a gesture we’re truly grateful for.
All in all, Periwinkle Cottage is a gem. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
