    “Our visit to the cottage was in November (a very cloudy week) so there was little power from the solar panels, a visit to the nearby LIDL solved the problem with a number of candles and nightlights, there were some very useful torches provided.”

    The wood burner was easy to operate and the portable gas fire was useful in the mornings, (refill gas cylinder available at BP garage also nearby £45) We enjoyed the "off grid" life. A wonderful holiday for two keen birdwatchers just a short walk to the RSPB reserve to the south and Wild Ken Hill to the north. If you want to see the spectacle of thousands of Knot, and many other waders that overwinter in the Wash leaving the mud as the tide comes in check the tide times! We hope to return!

The property

102 The Beach is a charming holiday home, sitting in a prime position on Snettisham beach in Norfolk.

With sea views, an RSPB reserve on the doorstep, and off-road parking, this property makes a most suitable base from which to explore East Anglia as a group of friends or a family of three.

Step inside and find the open-plan living room and kitchen, home to a woodburning stove to keep you warm in the cooler months, and a kitchen equipped with a gas oven and hob for your home-cooked meals.

Take the steps up to the sun/dining room where you can enjoy the sea views while dining on delicious meals, or make your way out to the decking for some evening drinks.

From here, you can head down the steps to the side garden, perfect for enjoying a picnic or popping your bikes into the secure shed for storage.

Back inside, freshen up in the shower room before jumping into either the king-size or single bed to rest ahead of a day of adventure.

The property is perfectly situated for a walk along the beach or a little further to a good fish and chip shop for supper when you don’t feel like cooking.

You can even find a handful of shops and pubs within walking distance on the nearby caravan sites, while further inland in the village of Snettisham, you can enjoy refreshments at the pubs, a pharmacy, an antiques and collectables centre with a coffee shop, and several other amenities, or a simply savour a dinner at the local bistro.

Birdwatchers will love the abundance of natural wildlife in the area, with numerous RSPB attractions from the doorstep while those looking for sand, and sometimes sun, can explore the coast and stunning beaches of Holme, Holkham and Blakeney.

History buffs of your group may want to make their way around the National Trust’s Oxborough and Blickling Hall, and Sandringham House and Gardens, all within reach of the property.

For a livelier day out, there is also easy access to the historic cities of Norwich, Cambridge, and Ely, and also just a scenic drive to The Broads.

Getaway to 102 The Beach at any time of year!

About the location

SNETTISHAM

Heacham 3 miles; Royal Sandringham 4 miles; Hunstanton 5 miles.

Snettisham is a traditional Norfolk village, with many of its houses built from the local iron-rich carr stone, which has an attractive golden-brown colouring. Due to this, the buildings are known locally as “gingerbread houses”. Village amenities include general stores, a Post Office, 2 inns, a bistro and a regular bus service to the bustling, family-friendly seaside resort of Hunstanton and historic King’s Lynn. The church of St Mary sits alone on top of the hill and is certainly worthy of a look inside at the exquisitely decorated tracery flowers on the west window. There is an RSPB bird sanctuary close to the beach, which is three miles away, and the ancient Peddars Way public footpath runs near to the village. Park Farm is on the edge of the village, and is a working farm with year-round activities for all the family, including a 45-minute “deer safari” and the chance to feed some of the animals. The Royal Estate of Sandringham, whose impressive house, gardens and church are open to the public, is nearby, as are the plant farm, tea rooms and gift shop at Norfolk Lavender, England's premier lavender farm.
