  • Chalet-style holiday home in Walcott, perfect for a North Norfolk seaside getaway

Property code: OC-2281

Get tails wagging at this cute, detached lodge less than 20 metres from the vast, sandy beach at Walcott on the North Norfolk coast where two furry family members are welcome to join you on holiday. It’s the perfect base for a family or couples looking for a relaxing retreat close to the beach where you and your pups can have a ball.

This bright and light single-storey house has relaxing colour schemes and themes throughout. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is ideal for hanging out and watching a movie, playing games, cooking, and dining together, and there’s plenty of space for the dogs’ beds too. Both inviting double bedrooms have fresh, calming colour palettes and there’s a family shower room for washing the sand off after a day on the beach. There’s also a washing machine for your swimming cossies and towels. At the start or end of the day, take a moment to sit outside on the patio with a drink soaking up your surroundings and breathing in the fresh sea air.

You’d be barking mad not to spend time on the beach, less than 20 metres away, while you’re here walking, sunbathing, and building sandcastles. You can let your canine friends go mutts at the dog friendly end (Ostend) any time of year too. Strike out for Cromer, 12 miles away, home to a doggie diner where your furry friends will be presented with their own menu, then stock up on Cromer crab to take home for dinner. Wildlife enthusiasts will love Horsey Gap (11 miles) where you can see grey seals, and the beautiful waterways of the Norfolk Broads are just 3 miles away. After a grand day out, head to the seafront fish bar for that seaside holiday staple ¬– fish and chips.

This chalet provided an excellent base for our week away. It was very clean on our arrival, warm and a perfect space for me, my elderly mum and my dog. I thought with so many chalets around that it might be a bit noisy but it was the absolute opposite, so very quiet. There was plenty of crockery, pots and pans and oven dishes and trays for cooking.Read more The beds were comfortable as was the sofa and the whole place was much larger inside than we were expecting. The beach was great for walking the dog with a circular walk via Bacton quite achievable. Hide
