A short walk from long sandy beaches and pubs serving food.
A short walk from long sandy beaches and pubs serving food.. All on the Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: Freeview Smart TV
Kitchen: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Dishwasher, Washing Machine
Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed Ensuite: Cubicle Shower, Toilet
Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Shower Room: Walk-In Shower, Toilet. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Enclosed back garden garden furniture and barbecue. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking. Suitable for couples or small families.. Enjoy a wonderful coastal location, just a 10-minute walk from the long sandy beach and the village, having two pubs both serving good food, a fish and chip shop and ice cream parlour. The Coastal Path for excellent walking is on the doorstep. This detached holiday bungalow offers a wonderful stay all year round with comfortable accommodation and a lovely sunny lawned garden to enjoy.
Visit the traditional seaside resorts of Cromer 12 miles, and Sheringham 19 miles for fun at the seaside. Wroxham, 12 miles, known as the capital of the Norfolk Broads National Park where you can hire a day launch or join a cruise and watch the world drift by and enjoy local wildlife. In fact, you are close to the heart of the broads so boats are readily available. Bacton Woods is close by with miles of woodland trails to explore. Ieal for cycling, picnic opportunities and great for dog walking. Bird watching, golf and fishing all available locally. If you can tear yourself away from the beach you will find a string of other coastal habitats to explore including marshes, sand dunes and pretty quays. Head west to Cromer and discover the unspoilt Edwardian seafront, promenade, pier and Amazonia Zoo. Venture a little further to Blakeney and take a boat trip to see the seals (seasonal) or enjoy a spot of crabbing on the quay. Head east and you’ll discover Great Yarmouth’s Golden Mile with all the fun of the fair and just a little further is Pleasurewood Hills, Norfolk’s only theme park. Enjoy a ride on the Bure Valley Railway from Wroxham and travel through the pretty Norfolk countryside to the bustling market town of Aylsham for a spot of shopping or lunch. With other attractions such as the tranquil Hickling Broad, Bewilderwood, Dinosaur Park at Lenwade, North Norfolk Railway and the medieval city of Norwich all within easy reach you really will be spoilt for choice. After a busy day you can return to The Shanty and relax in the outside seating and dining area with barbecue and uninterupted country side views and sunsets. Sandy beach, shop, pub, and restaurant 500 yards.
