About this property

Eva's Lookout | Winterton Cottages

Eva’s Lookout is a modern ‘upside down’ house with a spacious open plan living area upstairs, making the most of the fabulous view over Winterton Valley and out towards the sea. The fantastic location is right next to steps with direct access to the valley and beach, plus the house is walking distance from the village pub, shops and Poppy's tea rooms.

Through the front door you step into a hallway with wooden stairs leading to the living area upstairs. All the bedrooms and bathrooms are downstairs. The master suite has a superking bed, and direct access to the garden with sea views. It also has a dressing area, and ensuite bathroom with separate bath and shower. Bedroom two has a king size bed, direct access to the garden with sea views and an ensuite with a shower over the bath. The third bedroom has adult size bunk beds (3' wide), and has sea views from the window, whilst bedroom four is at the front of the house with two 3' single beds. There is also a family bathroom downstairs with a shower, wash basin and WC.

The house is in such a fantastic position, and the ‘upside down’ design makes the most of the sea views with an open plan living area occupying the whole of the second floor. The vast wall-to-wall glass doors span the length of the house, and open out to a large balcony. The designer kitchen incorporates modern appliances including a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and microwave, and there is a comfortable lounge area with TV/DVD. There is a washing machine in the downstairs utility room. For dining options there’s a choice of inside at the large table which seats eight, or a table and seating outside on the balcony. A gas barbecue is provided for guests.

There is plentiful off road parking in front of the house, and the back garden is fully enclosed. Up to two dogs are welcome, and there is unlimited free wi-fi for guests. Please note for security reasons, CCTV covers the driveway to the property.

The local Fisherman’s Return pub (dog friendly) serves good food, and is a 10-15 minute walk from the property. Also in the village within walking distance you’ll find the village shop, Poppy’s post office and tea rooms (we can recommend the breakfasts), a fish & chip shop and Seal View café at the beach.

There’s an excellent choice of walks right from the doorstep, and Winterton Dunes is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). From the end of November to the beginning of January it’s pupping season for the local grey seal colony, with literally thousands of them on Horsey beach just 10 mins drive from Winterton. It’s an amazing sight to see.

For cyclists there’s a great choice of routes and trails to enjoy. A little further afield the Norfolk Broads offers scenic boat trips or hire your own boat for the day. There’s also fishing, kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding available.

For families, the seaside town of Gt Yarmouth is only a 15 minute drive away, with a sandy beach, end of pier entertainment, Sea Life centre, amusement arcades, pleasure beach, bowling, cinemas, Venetian Waterways, crazy golf and much more. We also recommend the award winning BeWILDerwood an outdoor tree house adventure park with zip wires, jungle bridges, marsh walks and boat rides - just a 20 minute drive away near Horning. Wroxham Barns is nearby with independent shops, craft studios, a kids' farm, funfair and restaurant.

The fine city of Norwich is a 40 minute drive away, and offers shopping, museums, restaurants and a choice of theatres.

There’s a great choice of places to eat out locally including beachside cafes, local pubs and fine dining restaurants and we provide all guests with a comprehensive list in our digital welcome information.

New Year 2024
My family had a great new year in Eva’s Lookout. The house was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The view was amazing with plenty of walks in the area. The local pub was good too! We will definitely be back.

Outstanding
One of the best value properties I have ever stayed in. The dune and beach access is second to none. We stayed over Christmas and they even provided a tree and many thoughtful touches. Will be staying again. Thank you!
