Property code: OC-H33103

This stylish retreat for two is in the peaceful clifftop village of Overstrand, on the Norfolk coast. The village, which is often much quieter than its neighbours of Cromer and Mundesley, boasts some of the finest views in Norfolk. Within the village, you’ll find a handful of local shops, as well as a cosy pub and a delightful clifftop cafe. A short, 200-metre stroll brings you to Overstrand’s spectacular beach, where you can enjoy romantic picnics on the sand, walk along the shoreline, or join the locals for a spot of surfing. An exhilarating 1.5-mile hike along the coast path brings you to the coastal resort of Cromer. Here, you can enjoy a potter around the traditional seaside shops, sample the famous Cromer crab in one of the seafood restaurants, or watch a show at the theatre at the end of the pier. Nearby attractions include the National Trust’s Felbrigg Hall, Amazona Zoo, and the North Norfolk Railway (all within 7 miles).

Enter the cottage into the open-plan living space, which is decorated in a contemporary style with neutral tones and a collection of homely touches to make you feel relaxed. Prepare hearty breakfasts and light bites in the sleek kitchen area, to share at either the breakfast bar or outside in the courtyard. After a day of exploring, snuggle up on the plump sofa to watch a movie on the Smart TV or read a few pages from your book. The double bedroom features plush linens and calming tones for a good night’s sleep, and has its own, en-suite shower room.

Outside, soak up the sunshine in the enclosed courtyard garden, whilst sipping a glass of wine or tucking into an al fresco dinner. The property has unrestricted on-street parking, subject to availability.

The Hideaway was exactly that, the perfect Hideaway. Well equipped, beautifully furnished, very comfortable and ideal for dog too, just minutes from clifftop and beach. Local shop well stocked and a good bus service too! Clifftop cafe very popular and super beach walks to Cromer! A good find!

The property has been furnished to a high standard and has been thought out very carefully. The property is in a brilliant location, only 2 mins walk from the beach and a cafe and a 5 min walk to a lovely pub. Dog friendly and a court yard which is all enclosed so safe to let dog out. It's only a 2 mile walk to Cromer along the beach. It's a grRead moreeat place for a mini break. Hide
