This cosy cottage boasting sea views is just a short stroll to a glorious sandy beach and is ideal for a small family or couples looking to get away from it all

This fabulous seaside property, located on the east coast of Norfolk, sleeps four guests and two furry friends. The cottage is within 2 miles of a woof-friendly beach, where your canine companions can charge around on the sand and dabble their paws in the water. Enjoy wild and windy walks along the stunning 83-mile Norfolk Coast Path or spend a relaxing afternoon meandering around the grounds at Sheringham Park (18 miles).

A nautical theme runs throughout this warm and inviting bungalow, acting as a constant reminder of the property’s excellent coastal location. The lounge/diner, with its pretty fabrics and cosy flame-effect electric fire, is the perfect place to curl up after a long walk with your favourite four-legged pals. The conservatory is the ideal spot for the hounds to set up camp, as there’s direct access to the enclosed garden. This is also a lovely sunny area to sit with a coffee or glass of wine, enjoying the distant views of the sea. On a sunny day, fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco on the beautiful raised decked area.

The Norfolk Coast Path takes you past some of Norfolk’s finest woof-welcoming beaches, including Winterton-on-Sea (17 miles). This spectacular sandy beach is backed by dunes, and even in the height of summer, there’s ample room for you and the pups to find space to enjoy a game of fetch. If the hounds have good sea legs, head along the coast to Morston Quay (27 miles), where you can catch a boat over to Blakeney Point to visit the resident seal colonies – a real sight to behold. Sheringham Park is glorious, especially on a sunny afternoon. You and the pups can explore the exquisite woodland gardens and admire the stunning coastal views. Four-legged visitors are also welcome in the cafe.

A delightful place to stay. Warm and welcoming, very well appointed with everything one should need, including a pair of binoculars! The bathroom/wetroom works very well and the shower was perfect. The owners left a welcome pack which was very thoughtful and as it was Christmas they had decorated the place with some thoughtful festive additions.

The bungalow on arrival has off road parking for 2 cars. The living room has comfortable furniture a modern TV and a dining table. The kitchen his well equipped. The bathroom has a wet room type shower which is hot and with good pressure. There are 2 double bedrooms with a choice of bedding to suit all temperatures. The garden has plenty of furnituRead morere and is a pleasure to sit out in. You can see the sea through a gap between houses. A very short walk to the beach. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. Hide

Te access to second bedroom is awkward for anyone disabled or not. You have to hope no one is in the bathroom due to faffing with folding door and bathroom door which opens fully across it.

It is a lovely holiday home. The owner is kind and helpful and brought my mum an extra walking aid on the first day. Its a great holiday cottage for anyone with mobility challenges and the immaculate and very accessible wet room is very helpful. The white, sandy beaches just 5 minutes walk away are immaculate and quiet. There are sand dunes and lovRead moreely wild flowers growing nearby in the protected areas behind the beaches. Thank you for a lovely stay. Hide

The cottage was spot on. The location (2 minutes to beach) saw a few sunrises walking the dog there. 15 Minutes walk across the field to the The lighthouse pub. The conservatory was a great reading room for my better half. Wi-fi was good and a TV in each room was a boon. All in all a great relaxing place to stay.

Lovely little bungalow especially if you have dogs and want a 2 minute walk to the beach. Great enclosed garden with conservatory and back gate so dogs dont need to walk through home full of sand. It was perfect for us and dogs. Very comfortable stay would definitely recommend. Thank you Paul and Sue the owners.

This was our second stay at Driftwood and yet again we were not disappointed. The location is ideal for the beach and the property itself is like home from home with excellent facilities. A great location if you want to just get away from it all or use it as a base to visit locations such as Cromer, Norwich or Great Yarmouth. The chocolate cake on Read morearrival is a lovely thought. Would fully recommend this property and we would look to stay here again without hesitation. Hide
