Photos and Description of this Norfolk holiday cottage 2 bedrooms, sleeps 5, by quiet beach at Bacton, and close to Norfolk Broads

Our two-bedroomed holiday house is near the village of Bacton, on the peaceful North Norfolk coast, about half an hour's drive north-east of Norwich, and close to the market town of North Walsham. The house looks out towards the North Sea across a large cliff-top green, with direct access to a long sandy beach. It is part of a quiet estate of beach bungalows built in the 1930s, each privately owned, with A-line roofs and white weatherboard exteriors. The house consists of two bedrooms (one double, one with bunk beds plus optional single), sitting room (with sofas, wood-burning stove and Freeview TV/DVD), sunroom (with dining table and sofa), kitchen (with electric oven, microwave, fridge and washing machine), and bathroom (with electric shower, bath and WC). The sunroom opens, through French windows, onto a small patio garden, which in turn opens onto the large field with steps down to the beach. There are books, board games and radios, and gas central heating when required.

Further details for this holiday cottage rental in Norfolk, United Kingdom

This is a perfect place in which to unwind! The beach is very inviting, for walking, swimming or sunbathing. It is never crowded even at the height of summer as there is no public road or car park beside it, and though there is a gas terminal further up the coast, this is unimposing, quiet and clean. The seawater is tested regularly and is of high, Blue Flag quality. There is good sea fishing, and some people swim all the year round, occasionally in the company of a visiting seal or porpoise! Bacton is about half an hour’s drive north-east of Norwich, and it lies on the coast, approximately half way between Cromer to the north, and Great Yarmouth to the south. The village is surrounded by farmland and plenty of interesting places to visit. The nearest market town (and train station) is North Walsham.

Golf: Golf courses at Mundesley (with driving range), Cromer, West Runton, Sheringham and Sprowston.

Rating
5 out of 5

Perfect Peace

Review Submitted: September 25, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
It was well equipped, bright, light and peaceful, spotlessly clean and so close to the beach. Loads to do in the area. Ideal for small children and kids with energy to run off on the football field it opens onto, as safe an environment as you are likely to find. Out of main season, we went in early July, we only saw the next door neighbours all week. Four days was not enough time so we hope to go back
