Description

Bumblebee Cottage is a converted block of stables located in a beautiful rural part of North Norfolk, close to many deserted beaches. The cottage sleeps two in one king-size bedroom with en-suite shower room. There is a log burner for cosy evenings and a courtyard with access to a two-seater hot tub. The courtyard has direct access to a large grassed paddock and off-road parking. We provide a luxury welcome hamper full of locally grown, made and laid goodies. We welcome 2 - 3 dogs in the cottage for no extra charge.

Enter Bumblebee Cottage through the private courtyard into the:
Open-Plan Lounge/Kitchen/Diner
Vinyl wood-effect flooring throughout the lounge/kitchen-diner with an electric cooker with induction hob, dishwasher, Tassimo coffee machine, microwave and toaster. There’s a large Smart TV in the lounge and free unlimited superfast Wi-Fi so you can access all your usual online viewing. Snuggle up on the comfortable sofa in front of the wood burning stove for those frosty nights or throw the doors open and let the fresh air and bird song in on a sunny evening. Views across the fields and towards the lighthouse.

King-size Bedroom
Very comfortable king-size bed with wardrobe, chest of drawers, bed side tables. Views across the fields.

En-Suite Shower Room
Modern shower room with toilet, sink, shaver point and storage.

Courtyard
Bumblebee has its own patio area with seating and direct access to the paddock through 3ft solid wooden fencing.

Paddock
The paddock fencing is slightly higher than the courtyard, but not solid. There is wire stock fencing between the post and rail fencing and chicken wire at the bottom to 60cm high. Guests staying at The Walnut and The Peanut have shared access to the paddock, but only one property may have use at one time unless you have made arrangements with the other guests on the site and are happy to mingle.

Bumblebee is a non-smoking property.
Bookings are from Saturday – Saturday with short breaks sometimes available out of season (Dec – Feb excluding school hols) if there is the availability.
Check in is at 5pm, check out by 9am please. (Early arrival or late departure might be possible by prior arrangement - please contact us to see if this is possible).
Electric car charging is NOT available at this property. There is no dedicated charging point and “granny charging” is not insured.
We would prefer that your dogs are not left alone in the property unless you are 100% confident that they will not get stressed. If they are crate trained and you would like to use a crate, please do ask us, we have various sizes you can use while you’re here.
Dog sitting. If you would like to go out for a few hours and leave the dogs but are not confident they will settle, we can recommend some local dog-sitters who have looked after our own dogs.
We’re happy to accept and put away a supermarket delivery on your behalf on the day of arrival, between 2 and 3 pm.
There is no BBQ as the surrounding fields are often sown with wheat/barley.
The washing machine in the laundry room has a small charge for use.
The paddock is available for guest use at all times but we do ask that only one set of guests use this at a time unless your dogs have met and are all happy to be together.

Perfect!

By Paul & Elena on 14-Aug-2024

Perfectly peaceful but just a short drive to everything, Bumblebee is the best yet! East Ruston Cottages always get it right but Bumblebee is just perfect. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and comfortable. The goodies basket was delicious (super baked goods), the dogs loved the play field and our bed was more comfortable than at home (seriously!). Beautiful views from hot tub heaven every evening and cool early morning strolls along quiet lanes & tracks. We would highly recommend Bumblebee as a super dog friendly and comfortable cottage for two people. Spotlessly clean with everything needed for a relaxing break. Thank you ERC & Bumblebee Owners.

Absolutely Amazing Cottages, Stunning Location & Fabulous Hosts!! Already booked a return trip.

By Kris & Lindsey on 04-Aug-2024

We have 7 rescue pugs and finding somewhere that doesn't panic the minute you mention 7 is amazing. Cannot recommend staying at Bumblebee Cottage enough we left yesterday and it was hard to leave. Paul and Stella are a lovely couple they have made their properties little slices of heaven, the cottage is immaculate well thought out in design and cleaned to an exceptionally high standard, set on private peaceful and very lovely grounds the location and we have had the best time The accommodations are not just dog friendly they are all above and beyond and designed with our furry pawed babies in mind. Fabulous welcome pack on arrival eith lots of yummy treats for us but also with treats for the dogs! They also provided bowls, towels, spare leads, beds, crates and throws for the furniture so the doggies can sit with us for snuggles. We also had a doggy pram provided for our senior Pug which made this trip easy for us and fun for them. Happisburgh is beautiful we were close to the beaches but having the paddock was perfect for lazy days and made our holiday planning so much easier, an amazing relaxing dog friendly place we have already booked to come to Bumblebee Cottage for August 2025 xxx

Amazing!

By Geraldine & Andrew on 30-May-2024

Where to start? Stella and Paul have created an idyllic and beautiful holiday spot. The quality of accommodation is inspiring. Everything is thought of for both people and their four-legged family members. You just can’t say enough about the hosts and the cottages. We live nearby and stayed while undertaking renos. We have already recommended to friends and family and would most certainly stay again! Perfection.

Bumblebee Cottage

By Dan & Laura on 15-Apr-2024

What a lovely property! As soon as you walked in you could appreciate the effort the owners have put in. The decor, clean and spacious and with everything we needed and more. A lovely generous welcome pack on arrival with treats included for our dogs along with bowls, towels and beds for them. Great location for walks and close to several different beaches. The dogs had use of courtyard and secure green which they made good use of whilst we relaxed in the hot tub! The owners are on site and were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend and would love to come back soon.

The Bumblebee

By Julie & Bruce on 10-Mar-2024

Our stay at The Bumblebee was as perfect as it could be. Everything was exceptionally clean and beautifully presented throughout. Our two greyhounds enjoyed the local walks and ambling around the paddock. The hot tub was an added bonus. Paul and Stella made us feel very welcome and we can't wait to return.
