Modern yet full of character, this recently refurbished property makes a great getaway for families and groups of friends who love being near the sea, but who also enjoy being close to the local town and amenities. On the ground floor is a well-equipped kitchen and dining room where meals and conversation can be enjoyed, as well as a sitting room with an open fire, TV and video game console. Heading to the first floor, youll find a double bedroom with a king-size bed, a twin bedroom with two single beds and a bathroom with separate shower.

Less than a mile and a half away (just over five minutes by car) is Heacham Beach, which is a great place to enjoy the weather, play with children, walk the dog or simply take a stroll in the evening.

Secure garden for the dog & while we didnât use the parking space as it was a bit tight for our car, there was always a space outside. We could reverse in to load & unload though. Beautiful week exploring the Norfolk coast once again!
