Mulberry

'Mulberry Cottage' is a semi-detached holiday cottage and it is the closest house to the marsh in Stiffkey. Mulberry is only 100 meters from woodland that separates the land from the marsh. There is a footpath at the bottom of the garden which is accessible by a gate which leads to the marsh on one side and a 10 minute walk to the pretty flint village of Stiffkey on the other. There are far-reaching views across open fields on all three sides of the cottage. The salt-marsh is ideal for bird-watchers. 'Mulberry Cottage' was once part of Stiffkey Army Camp built in the 1930s. During World War II it was an Anti-Aircraft training school. The marshes in those days echoed to the sound of Ack-Ack guns and not sea-birds!

The Marsh



The cottage offers accommodation on two levels and has stripped pine flooring and rugs. On the ground floor there is a large family kitchen with a dining table. The kitchen is fully equipped with microwave, dishwasher, washing-machine and fridge/freezer. A door leads out onto the patio which has wooden patio furniture. There is also a good-sized back garden laid to lawn surrounded with a stock-proof fence. There is an open front garden adjoining the turning circle, and parking for several cars.

Mulberry is perfectly located for those wishing to explore this area of outstanding natural beauty. It is very close to the marsh which is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest.

As we are in a rural location, the only traffic is that of three other properties in the immediate vicinity. Stiffkey has a free-house pub 'The Red Lion' and Post Office/general stores. There is also a lamp shop and an antiques shop.

We are open all year for rentals. The property has oil-fired central heating so you can book that Christmas away or early spring break without the fear of freezing!

Duvet, 2 pillows and * mattress protector are provided for all beds, but bed linen and towels are not included. (* The protector is not plastic so please bring your own waterproof mattress protector for young children or those who may be incontinent).

 

However, due to the number of visitors who would like their beds made up on arrival, we can offer the services of a local business at cost and you can choose to take advantage of this at the following prices:

 

Bed linen: £6.00 per person

(Cotton duvet covers, sheet and pillow cases)

 

Bed linen and towels (bath-sheet and hand): £7.50 per person

 

Please let us know if you would like this service at the time of your booking and we will arrange it for you.

 

 

We operate a 'No smoking' policy. Dogs* with well-behaved owners are welcome.

Mulberry shares its location with its other half of the building and a detached cottage which are all capable of sleeping 8 people. So, if you are looking for accommodation for up to 16 or 24 people, it may be possible by booking all three properties.

 

 

* Mulberry dog policy

Mulberry is a dog-friendly place, but owners must be responsible and have consideration for those using the house after them. It has an enclosed back garden which should keep children and dogs in. The area is great for walks without having to go on a public road to access the saltings or other footpaths and bridleways.

However, we do have some basic rules for visiting dogs to ensure that the garden is a safe and clean place for children, and to preserve the cleanliness and condition of the cottage:

They are not allowed on the furniture - this includes beds, sofas and chairs.

Please keep them downstairs.

They must not be left unattended in the property.

They should be provided with their own bedding and feeding bowls.

Any deposits in the garden must be picked up and disposed of.


A maximum of 2 dogs is permitted unless by prior agreement and there is a surcharge of £10 per dog .
