ROOMS & FACILITIES

Fisherman's Stroll is a 3 bedroom Victorian terraced cottage built in 1885 in Caister-on-Sea (c.1hr 35m from Cambridge). It is on a small terrace just off the main road, perfectly suited for self catering holidays for couples, families and dog walkers.  The cottage will take 6 guests, and an extra 2 can stay on the sofa bed.  It provides a simple retreat close to the sea and sandy beach (less than 10 minutes' stroll) as well as a wide range of nearby activities and attractions.

It is available all year round, for weeks, mid-week breaks and weekends, we try to be as flexible as we can to share the cottage and help with costs, rather than make a profit. Have a look at the availability calendar for dates.  All prices are below market levels for friends, family and other contacts, it is not advertised commercially.  Click to see prices and how to book.
