ideal place to stay if exploring the north norfolk coast
Pros:

Apartment was clean and comfortable . The room had all the facilities for a stay , everything was very well thought out from free parking to the extra tea coffee, milk , bottled water , iron, hair dryer , fridge and parking etc
The bonus was having a pub next door so after a day of exploring you could go and have dinner and drink to relax if you so chose. ( note please book a table , we hadn't however , the bar staff went out of their way to accommodate us as we were staying at the motel )
