We stayed for 5 nights in March and had the benefit of really nice weather to enjoy the beach and local area, and the Shack is the perfect place to that. The Shack is really well appointed, and has a lovely air about it with the rustic decor and enclosed garden for the dog. Strongly recommended for a stay.

The Shack ticked all the boxes we were looking for - relatively close to home, dog friendly (our two dogs loved it!), well equipped, in a quiet location and we fantastic access to the beach for plenty of walks for us and the dogs. Big car parking space, we will definitely look to return in the near future.

We had an amazing week at The Shack and were blessed by warm sunny days which made staying there the perfect holiday. There is plenty of space inside and out, we were a party of 2 adults, a 12 year old and a labrador and were more than happy. We enjoyed walking in either direction to Happisburgh and Sea Palling, barbequeing in the garden,used localRead more takeaways and ate in pub beer gardens all within 15 minutes. We love this coastline and being right by the beach was so relaxing and The Shack is perfectly set up for an amazing stay. We absolutely loved it. Hide

We loved our stay at the Shack! Its in an amazing location, we loved seeing the seals on the beach (just 1 or 2 mins away). It had everything we needed and was really clean, and dog friendly. The owners left us a fan during the heatwave which we really appreciated, and enough washing up liquid/hand wash for us to use, which many other properties weRead moreve stayed at have not. We would highly recommend the Shack for a stay on the Norfolk coast! Hide

Wonderful sea side cottage with a really cool beach hut vibe. Quite small but for a couple or a little family like ours it's a perfect getaway right next to the beach. Nice and clean with lots of little extras the owners have thought about like a hose to rinse your feet or sandy dogs off, spare dog bowls and a nice little selection of games to keepRead more you entertained in the evenings. I'd definitely book this again. Hide
