This was our second visit to Beach Haven. The property is very comfortable and well equipped and was spotless on arrival. The location was very quiet and approximately 15 minutes' walk from the town centre, and bit a less (~ 10) to the beach and the Norfolk Coast Path. It has it's own, off street parking space with room for 2 small to medium cars or 1 larger vehicle, like our KIA Sportage.Unfortunately, this time we found the shower impossible to use - either very hot or cold water - and needs some attention, but the combi boiler ensured plenty of hot water for baths. There was also a problem with the locks on both the front and back the doors. This was reported to the caretaker who responded very promptly.
