Great local pub only a short walk away from the cottage. Make sure to book in peak season. The menu changes daily, using many seasonal ingredients and seafood/fish dishes. Slightly more fancier/expensive than traditional pub food.

Crabbing
Great activity for children as well as adults. We have nets, buckets, and lines at the house for guests to use.
You can walk down to Stiffkey marshes (at the bottom of Greenway road) and turn right. You can crab from the dykes at high tide. You will also find people crabbing on Wells-next-the-sea quay.
TIP - buy bacon and leave outside to go hard as the perfect bait. There is no need to use hooks, instead tie knots in the lines.
