The welcoming, light-filled lounge feels like a home from home, and includes plenty of seating for everyone to get together and enjoy convivial evenings in front of the open fire and the Freeview TV. The kitchen/diner is another gorgeous space in which to gather, perhaps with the patio doors thrown open for a fresh breeze.

For fresh air and outdoor fun, step into the back garden, which combines a small lawn with a furnished patio area that’s ready and waiting for drinks and BBQs in the sun.

Weve just returned from a lovely week in Hunstanton. We were very fortunate to have some lovely spring weather and enjoyed visits to other resorts as well as just wandering around Hunstanton. The house is lovely - much bigger inside than it looks from outside. Very light and spacious but also cozy in the evenings. The kitchen is so well equipped wiRead moreth everything you could need. Bedrooms were huge and the beds very comfortable. The location of the house is excellent - a very easy walk into the centre but also very quiet at night. Lots of choice for places to eat, lovely shops to wander round and everyone we met was very friendly. Would not hesitate to return again! Hide

The house is centrally located one street back from the sea front. There were plenty of towels, comfy bed and a very quiet street location. There are plenty of places to eat, pubs and restaurants and a nice high street to wander along.

Very comfortable, clean and spacious house. Plenty of kitchen equipment, DVDs and books. Easy walking distance to Hunstanton beach, very lively, and also to Old Hunstanton beach which is prettier, more rural and calm.

Comfortable, functional and in an excellent location for access to the beach at Old Hunstanton. Nice, contemporary decor, enclosed garden was a particular bonus as we were travelling with our dog. Comfortable beds, good bed linen. Lovely open fire. Very cosy and well equipped for a small family or couple. The bathroom is very small, so unlikelRead morey to appeal to two couples travelling together. With parking costs being what they are it is extremely useful to have quick access by foot to the beach. Nice to have a good size kitchen and also a dining room. A nice welcome pack of some cookies, apple juice and crisps. The dog was very comfortable on a nice bed and also the addition of a large throw was very thoughtful. A good value stay in an excellent location. Hide
