Bryn Frank, editor of The Good Holiday Cottage Guide:
'Holiday properties in Cley are much sought after,
and you'll have to book well ahead to secure the
beauty here. The historic windmill at Cley is a
North Norfolk landmark, all the more appealing for
being located on the north side of the delightful
village of Cley'.
Within walking distance of the excellent, 'old
fashioned' village shops, The Mill has uninterrupted
views over the sea, the salt marshes and Cley Bird
Sanctuary, with Blakeney Harbour in the distance.
The large walled garden abuts the River Glaven,
surrounded by reeds and tranquillity.
Long known for offering bed and breakfast, under
new owners this fabulous place is enjoying a new
lease of life for its self catering holiday cottage,
and for the stylish evening meals on offer to cottage
guests as well as B&B guests. The entire windmill
can be booked for house parties and weddings.
One of the original stables has been converted into a well appointed holiday cottage. This is well provided with 21st century comforts while retaining much of its original character. Available (normally on a weekly basis) throughout the year.
The Dovecote (which it was) has been converted
into a snug flint-walled cottage. It has a living
area on the ground floor with open plan kitchen,
a master bedroom (twin beds or king size double)
and bathroom. Stairs lead to a mezzanine gallery
where there is a double bed under a vaulted wooden
ceiling. Dovecote has views of the Mill and is adjacent
to the Mill's walled garden.
