With uninterrupted views out over Bacton beach and its quiet village location this bungalow is perfect for a break by the sea and is sure to leave guests feeling refreshed and re-invigorated.

Escape to the coast and wake to the sounds of waves at Bacton Beach. Boasting a superb location over the road from the shore, spend evenings in the garden or curl up in front of the wood burner. Family-friendly attractions, fantastic beaches and plenty of places to indulge in a delicious meal can be found close to home so you can keep guests of all ages entertained. This coastal bolthole can be booked with the adjoining property for a getaway with family, friends and dinners on the shared patio.

Fill your lungs with salty air before heading inside to settle at this charming cottage. Built from traditional flint and brick, the charisma continues inside where a subtle nautical theme echoes throughout, and neutral hues create a welcoming ambience. Turn the bright lounge into a cosy haven by firing up the wood burner and spend lazy evenings gazing out of the window or in front of the TV. When it’s time to tuck in, rustle up some delicious fare in the inviting kitchen/diner or fire up the BBQ and enjoy a sizzling summer feast to the sound of the waves. Keep an eye on your pup as the garden and patio are unenclosed, with the rear garden leading to the beach. Rest your head in one of two charming double bedrooms before rising and shining and freshening up in the contemporary bathroom.

Tread the track (or take the ramp nearby) from the rear garden and descend the steps to the promenade and the beach for a splash in the sea, sandcastle competitions and a summer sunbathe. The beach has restrictions for dogs during summer, but you can hop on the Norfolk Coast Path for a stretch of the legs and glorious views. Treat yourself in the local pub or make the 11-mile journey to Cromer where you can sample the local crab.

Such a fabulous place. You really feel like you could touch the sea. The views are breath taking. Sitting by the window in the comfy arm chair with the log burner on the go looking out across the beach is a must. Beds are comfy, kitchen well equipped, lots of hot water, shops and takeaways near by. Well maintained property, hope to return.

Lovely location with nice views from livingroom, over the beach and sea. Could be annoying that guests in the adjoining property walk right past your livingroom window across the grass to get up and down from the beach. Somewhat spoils the privacy in Flop.

You really do need to know the people in adjoining property, or be very lucky as we were when there. Hide
