Nearby there is The Red Lion, and a little village shop which is known for its barista style coffees and croissants. The village is on the coastal path meaning you are able to walk for as little or as long as you like, with lovely views all the way along.
Golfing is available at Old Hunstanton Golf Club.
Sailing is available in the local village of Wells-next-the-Sea

The hut is located in a rural location surrounded by open fields. The owner occasionally has access to the nearby fields.
Two well behaved dogs are welcome for a small additional charge. There is a wired fence surrounding the hut, but it is advised that dogs are kept on the lead, as very small dogs may be able to pass through. Please note that dogs must be kept off the furniture.
