  • A stunning traditional Norfolk brick and flint property with a stylish contemporary feel to get away from it all, and the perfect base for the family to explore all that  Norfolk has to offer
  • Stroll along the glorious sandy beaches at Mundesley, Overstrand and Bacton, visit Cromer, walk along the Victorian pier, see a show at the Pavilion theatre and sample the local Cromer crab
  • Lots of local attractions to keep the kids entertained include, Bewilderwood, The Dinosaur Adventure park and Africa Alive Zoo andThe National Trust properties of Bickling Hall and Felbrigg are a short drive away
Property code: OC-47832

A stylish and spacious home welcoming guests with tufty paws, this bolthole is the perfect escape for a holiday full of fun and relaxation. An abundance of adventures await discovery: search for seals at Blakeney, taste the local seafood delicacies at Cromer or chase waves and sticks at the coast before returning home to unwind in style. If nights are mild, savour every last ray of sun on the patio with a tipple in hand.

Characterful brickwork and flint set the scene at this charming property. Heading inside, you are greeted by the bright open-plan living space where light floods in through French doors. In the lounge, vibrant splashes of colour complement the otherwise composed decor creating a fresh calming ambience in which to relax. Brew a cup of tea or show off your culinary skills in the contemporary kitchen area before serving up at the dining table, which comfortably seats all two-legged guests. A convenient downstairs cloakroom is a great place to towel down soggy fur and brush off muddy paws. Climb the stairs and find three inviting bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room and a Juliet balcony with gloriously green views. The additional family bathroom can be shared by other guests. Due to the nature of the property, first-floor rooms have sloping ceilings and therefore slightly restricted headroom.

After spending time outside in the enclosed garden, head beyond into the great outdoors. The National Trust property, Blickling Hall, is just 9.5 miles from home and welcomes dogs on leads with fun for all the family. 10 miles away, Sheringham is a great spot for chewing sticks, having a paddle and sating appetites with a picnic.

The home was beautiful and was very clean. We found many excellent walks around then village and was only a short drive from the beach and sea. The beach at Mundesley was lovely, nat too busy and had an area for our dogs. Cromer was only 4 miles away and as we are members of the National Trust we found several properties in the area which we visiteRead mored. Hide

Well placed for Cromer and other coastal towns. Everything provided such as tea, coffee and milk. Enclosed garden had fences high enough to keep our elderly lurcher safe. Only problem we faced was excessive noise some days from military jets so if your dog is a nervous nellie like ours, you might want to think about this area.

This is a really lovely cottage in a peaceful position backing onto fields. The owners have thought of everything that we might have needed including board games, books, dvd's etc. The lovely beaches of North Norfolk were only a short drive away and we really enjoyed our week there.
