  • Stroll to the nearby sandy beach or visit the traditional seaside resort of Cromer (just 2 miles)
Property code: 81481

Located in the idyllic coastal village of Overstrand and just a short walk to the beach, this property is the ideal base for a small family or couple to explore the wonderful Norfolk coastline.

Simply presented yet comfortable throughout, this property is an ideal base for two dogs and five accompanying humans looking to explore the Norfolk coastline. Located in the coastal village of Overstrand, you’ll be within a 0.5-mile stroll from the golden sandy beach and a whole host of traditional amusements such as classic fish and chips in a friendly cafe and cliff-top strolls to Cromer and beyond. Weary and sandy from your adventures, return to a glass of wine in your safely enclosed garden and slip your waggy-tailed chum a few treats so they can relax too.

You’ll have everything you need to holiday in comfort, whether you are transforming delicious local produce into hearty meals in the kitchen, or settling down to family films in the lounge/diner with bowls of buttery popcorn. Tuck in together at the table or head outside to dine alfresco whilst Fido stretches his legs on the lawn, or why not give yourself the night off from cooking and wander down to the pub for a slap-up feast? Upstairs, three bedrooms and a bathroom provide cosy sleeping quarters and washing facilities for the entire pack. There is also off-road parking for two cars.

The peaceful village of Overstrand is top dog for walks along the coastline, but be sure to keep Rover at heel just in case you encounter any resident wildlife such as nesting wildfowl. Soak up the views over a flask of coffee and recharge your batteries with a bite to eat in a cafe before tackling the 2-mile walk to Cromer, where you can admire the iconic lighthouse and perhaps pay a visit to the museum. Overstrand Beach itself has dog restrictions from May to October, but East Runton, 3.5 miles away, welcomes furry visitors all year round and is a must for fossil hunters.

Winnies is a lovely house in a perfect area for visiting North Norfolk. The house was spotlessly clean and the garden was nicely enclosed and our two greyhounds loved it. We recommend the Cliff Top Cafe and the White Horse pub both just a short walk away.

Although we enjoyed our stay in the cottage, we did find the list of dos and don't s a slight put off, I don't generally go on holiday to make sure all bins etc are done! As you have cleaners, I don't think it too much of an effort to empty bins etc .

Winnies is a stylish modern home and was immaculately presented. The location is quiet yet the beach, shop and pub and cafe are less than 10 minutes leisurely walk. The short sloping path to the beach is steep but do-able with a double buggy and the beach is wonderful for body surfing and sand castles. We loved it!
