Part of the Forest Park group, this enchanting property offers handy access to its on-site shop, bar and restaurant (1 mile) for times when you don’t fancy going too far. The glorious coast calls loud here, with Cromer and its seafood, pier and seaside vibe just 2 miles away. Any dogs or kids in your group will adore the huge sandy expanse of beach: walk 2 miles south to Overstrand, or 1.5 miles north to East Runton. Sheringham is further around and north (6.5 miles by coast road); try sea swimming after a mobile sauna or hop on the North Norfolk Railway – also known as the Poppy Line – which runs from Sheringham to the attractive town of Holt. If you fancy a sand-free attraction, then Felbrigg Hall (4.5 miles) is a National Trust property offering an historic house, gardens and a large estate, complete with woods and a lake.
Any group of friends or family are in for a relaxing treat at this beautiful dog-friendly property, just 0.5 miles on foot from the nearest beach. All set on one floor, you’ll enter via the bright entrance lobby. There’s a useful WC here and a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room. The spacious open-plan living area leads off the entrance lobby, too. The elegant lounge has comfortable seating around a wood burner, with a dining room easily seating eight next door. Leading off from here is the delightful sunroom, serving as another lounge when the sun is out and opening onto the garden and patio. A stylish kitchen has all mod cons for holiday catering, with garden views through its large window. The remaining two bedrooms lead off the lounge; one twin and one super-king-size, both with en-suites. The super-king has French doors leading onto the exterior decking.
Look out for deer in this secluded setting that is teeming with wildlife. The enclosed garden gives a real sense of privacy with a couple of steps up to the lawned areas and mature trees. There’s a furnished decked area and even a sauna and a hot tub for stargazing or admiring the wide blue sky during the day. Three cars can comfortably park off-road here, making loading and unloading less of a hassle.
