A charming coastal cottage set in the historic fishing village of Winterton-on-Sea on a peaceful stretch of the Norfolk coast, this stylish abode is perfect for a relaxing family retreat with a couple of cheeky canine companions in tow. Brave an invigorating morning dip alongside your doggy-paddling pal in the glistening waters of Winterton Beach (400 metres), before scoffing an al fresco breakfast spread on the sprawling rear lawn.
This airy property features a bright interior with fresh neutral tones, light-flooded social areas, and contemporary splashes of colour. Towel off sandy paws and toes at the door then step into the spacious lounge. Flop down on the sofa with coffee or scan the bookshelf for an easy holiday read. Set the mood with a crowd-pleaser playlist on the Bluetooth speaker or settle in with a movie on the Smart TV while Fido stretches his paws by the crackling open fire. Rustle up a feast in the traditional galley-style kitchen and sneak a treat to your hungry pup. Adorn the chic dining table with a selection of tempting dishes or feast in the glow of the setting sun in the delightful glass-panelled conservatory. On summer evenings, throw open the patio doors and pad into the leafy garden for a nightcap and natter while the nosey pups explore. Unwind for the night with a restorative soak in the spa bath then choose from three tranquil bedrooms including a king-size, a double and a twin – each styled with crisp linens and breezy nautical design touches. Sip your morning coffee perched in the front courtyard or enjoy a sizzling BBQ lunch in the rear garden.
Keen amblers and energetic hounds can soak in the sweeping ocean vistas as they trek along the coastal path to Horsey Gap (5 miles), then sniff hello from afar to the resident grey seals lounging on the sandy shoreline. Settle in or a well-earned round with the hound at a local watering hole in Caister-on-Sea (5 miles), or venture to the Norfolk Broads National Park (17 miles) and scamper along the winding woodland trails.
