Near the Quay,Moorings restaurant,pubs,bakery,gift shops,galleries and coffee/tea room JollyBoat is a perfect romantic retreat for a couple or a solo traveller ,The 2 Magpies bakery and coffee shop is just 50 metres away on the quayside. Fabulous breakfast /lunch in there. Fresh bread to take away and the biggest piles of pastries/croissants and all things lovely on their counter ! Such choice. The White Horse ‘gastropub’ and The Moorings restaurant are also on the High Street overlooking the harbour,not forgetting The Kings Arms on Westgate Street round the Quay .The Spar shop sells everything you’ll need and has a post office and cash machine . This little cottage is a lovely base to get away from it all for a well-deserved break. The downstairs area at JollyBoat offers a double height, open-plan kitchen and living space. The kitchen is a good size, with a peninsular providing a dining area and additional storage. There is a Neff induction hob & Neff hide & slide electric oven,slimline dishwasher and small undercounter fridge with separate ice box.The sitting room has a comfortable sofa, with a 40″ Smart TV, a DVD player and electric woodburner.

We loved our stay here. The cottage is clean and comfortable, excellent location and Sophia was accessible and responsive before and during our stay. Great kitchen. Blakeney is a small village but many great restaurants and many walking paths nearby. A very restful and peaceful place.
The cottage was situated in an ideal location, just a short walk down the high street to the quay. There is pub/inn just a couple of hundred yards down the road and a nice bakery on the quay. The cottage was well kitted out and we had everything we needed.
We loved staying at Jollyboat Cottage with our dog. It is in a lovely area and just a short stroll to the pub, restaurant's and the harbour. We enjoyed a lovely long weekend and it is easy to get to the fabulous beach at Wells which is a short drive away. The cottage has been really nicely decorated and everything has been thought of. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Had a lovely short break the cottage was spotlessly clean. Sophia kindly provided milk, butter and jam. The bed was very comfortable. Will recommend to friends and family.
Comfortable, welcoming and classy. Exactly as described and an easy walk to the coast. Easy to park nearby, too. Spotlessly clean, all the gadgets and amenities you might require. Host was quick to respond to queries and clearly available for help if needed.Compact accommodation, but did not feel small, despite us both being over six foot.Loved our stay. Perfect location to drive east and west to North Norfolk’s best bits!
Jollyboat is a beautifully restored cottage, tastefully decorated and extremely well equipped. The location was perfect and it provided a good base for walking the Norfolk Coast Path and catching the Coasthopper bus. We met Sophia, our helpful and hardworking host who was a source of local knowledge. The lack of outdoor space was made up for by its location 100 metres or so from picturesque Blakeney Quay.
A pretty & nicely furnished cottage but in kitchen area, surfaces were cluttered & cupboards full, leaving no space for guest provisions. Bread board needs replacing! Hated the dog crate in the living room & other dog-based stuff, along with the recycling bin. Upstairs was far too cramped for us, especially washing & showering, with a dangerous step (which we fell over). Nowhere for towels & no wardrobe in the glass-fronted bedroom. Drawer liners recommended, please, along with filled soap-dispensers. And please instruct how to turn on TV! Parking was a pain.
