    “Lovely little cottage in a very nice location.”

    The decor was very nice and the furnishings were good quality with comfortable beds. The kitchen was one of the best equipped and had an air fryer which we made use of. Very peaceful location, nice enclosed garden space for dog and only a few minutes walk just up past side of hill top pub and you are on the cliff top for the coastal walk. If you go right after a short walk you can get to the ramp for access to the beach which is dog friendly all year round and keep going right and you can walk ...

    The decor was very nice and the furnishings were good quality with comfortable beds. The kitchen was one of the best equipped and had an air fryer which we made use of. Very peaceful location, nice enclosed garden space for dog and only a few minutes walk just up past side of hill top pub and you are on the cliff top for the coastal walk. If you go right after a short walk you can get to the ramp for access to the beach which is dog friendly all year round and keep going right and you can walk for a few miles. NB, the other way beware of tide as you cannot exit the beach towards Walcott. A 10 minute drive takes you to Bacton woods another good walking place for your dog, although there are plenty of others but I like to avoid any roads or lanes. Enjoyed very good fish and chips at the Kingfisher fish bar a five minute drive into Walcott/Bacton, cooked haddock fresh to order and was delicious.

About the location

HAPPISBURGH, EAST ANGLIA

Norwich 19.3 miles; Great Yarmouth 22.5 miles

This historic village brushes the East Anglian coastline in the English county of Norfolk. Its lighthouse is the oldest working light in the area, as well as being the only independently run beacon in Great Britain, dating back to 1790. Its imposing tower of red and white stands proudly on the north-eastern headland surrounded by verdant countryside. You can visit this beautiful structure during public open days and climb the 112 steps up to the lantern. Another notable building in the village is St. Mary's Church, a 15th century landmark, whose tower warned mariners of the position of the perilous sandbanks nearby. This church also has set open days, where you can enjoy splendid views of the sea and enveloping fields from the top of the tower. Enjoy a picturesque stroll down to the beach and watch the lifeboats speedily tackle the untamed seas. There is also a village trail for you to amble, taking you past all the Happisburgh landmarks worth seeing. The village of Winterton-on-Sea is within easy reach by car and boasts a vast beach and wildlife-rich nature reserve that has attracted colonies of Terns and rare Natterjack toads. The old fishermen's cottages and village church makes it an idyllic location to bring the family for a day out. Further afield is the city of Norwich with its two cathedrals and Norman castle, whilst the popular seaside resort of Great Yarmouth offers one of Britain’s largest open air markets. A wonderful destination for your next holiday by the sea.
