Description of Middle Cottage
Just minutes from the lovely sandy beach, this charming fisherman's cottage is great for a family or two couples.
Once an important place of pilgrimage, the ruins of Bromholme Priory are still to be seen in Bacton today. The Priory was built in 1113 AD by William de Glanville and was home to the Cluniacs, the Black Monks who purchased a piece of the True Cross, the Bromholme Roode. Ensuing miracles ensured visits by many thousands of pilgrims including King Henry III. The priory was mentioned in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, the Domesday Book, and was the subject of a prediction in Mother Shiptons Almanac. Today the coastal village opens its doors to the 21st century pilgrims who visit for their holidays. They enjoy the friendly village atmosphere and the sandy beaches, which are often quiet even in the height of summer. There is a good range of local amenities including pubs, shops, a children's playground and a bowling green.
This charming 200-year-old fisherman's cottage is quietly located on the edge of the village, just 100 yards from the beach. The attractively presented accommodation has many character features, including beamed ceilings and an inglenook fireplace that gives the cottage a lovely warm and welcoming feel.
