Perched on a peaceful, unmade road in the seaside hamlet of North Gap, this light and airy bungalow makes a chic coastal retreat for a couple or small family. Boasting far-reaching views over farmland with access to the beach via the sand dunes beyond, it’s ideal for a tranquil getaway or a family-friendly holiday beside the sea. After days getting salty and sandy on the beach, enjoy a glass of wine on the sunny garden bench or curl up with a cuppa in the chic lounge.

This bright and cheerful abode benefits from large windows throughout, and a stylish, comfortable decor, giving it a homely and welcoming ambiance. The spacious lounge has a choice of elegant seating, a Smart TV, a wood-burner-effect gas fire, and patio doors overlooking farmland. Make the most of warm weather sitting in the little suntrap porch, or fire up the BBQ on the back patio and dine alfresco. Alternatively, rustle up family favourites in the bright and fresh kitchen and dine next to the picture window. When it’s time to rest your head, there are two calming bedrooms – one double and one with bunk beds – plus a family shower room along the hall.

North Gap is a hamlet of Eccles-on-Sea, with the larger resorts of Happisburgh and Sea Palling just 4 miles and 3.5 miles respectively. If you’re travelling with children, don’t miss the magical BeWILDerwood (12 miles), while East Ruston Old Vicarage Garden (5.5 miles) is a delight for gardeners. To visit the Norfolk Broads, head to the Museum of the Broads at Stalham (5 miles) or Hickling Broad (9 miles).

Excellent location, fully equipped, comfortable cottage. We went in early March and had the luxury of dry weather. Minutes walk to beach for dogs and fully enclosed garden. Plenty of parking. Complete silence and very little passing vehicles/people.. perfect and will be back.

This is a lovely cottage in an idyllic location. The unadopted road leading to it can be a bit daunting at first but you get used to it. It is very clean and there was lots of space for both us and our two dogs. The beds were really comfortable with nice bedding. The big kitchen was great to eat and cook in. Our dogs loved the nearby beach which Read moreis only a couple of minutes from the cottage and very often deserted. It is ideally situated for exploring the pretty local areas with Horsey beach being our favourite because of the seals which are often seen swimming and sunbathing there. Hide

The cottage was a great size, decorated really well and very comfortable. The location was fantastic - literally a stone's throw to the lovely, quiet sandy beach. We ate in a fair bit and found the kitchen to be well equipped and it was great to have a full-size dishwasher.

Antilles is a wonderful cottage, it is beautifully set out and the decor is fabulous. A most amazing little home from home. It is only 100 yards or so to a beautiful clear beach, and most often we were the only ones on there. The neighbours were really friendly, and the gardener was a delight to talk to.

It's a nice location with friendly neighbors and gardener. Everybody seems to have dogs. I only spent 2 x days, but what I found was more than adequate in the bungalow.

The bungalow was well stocked with equipment clean and comfortable however the decking and courtyard needed a good clean . The dining area was fine for 2 people but would be very congested for more . We pulled the table out more into the kitchen which meant its in the way a little but not inconvenient

Had a lovely stay! The Bungalow was very modern on the inside and comfortable. The beach was so easy to find from both directions from the property, just 3 houses down if you turn right but also accessible if you turn left - just brings you out to slightly different areas of a very remote beach. Was lovely to spot the odd seal bobbing around in thRead moree sea!! We had lovely long walks on the beach ( we were so lucky with the weather!!) The Cottage has a smart TV so you can access NOW TV, Amazon Prime etc as well as Freeview channels, The seating was very comfortable and we found property warm - no need for any heating during our stay at end of September. The views from the front of the Bungalow were nice and the seating just outside the main window was a real sun trap!! The kitchen was nice and bright with a very large fridge/freezer. Lots of lovely matching cups/plates/bowls and adequate cooking utensils provided. Lots of hanging space and drawers for clothing etc. The bathroom had a decent shower, lots of hot water. Glad of the shower. Lots of towels provided. The front garden of property is enclosed by a fairly low fence, we were always a bit concerned our dog (3 year old Labrador) could have jumped it but we never left him outside alone. We would recommend this property/location to a friend if they wanted a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle with a remote beach for long sandy walks... There are no shops near by, the nearest being in Sea Palling (Large Tesco in Stalham) The Road leading to the property is "Undulating" so say the least!!! - Very bumpy and sandy with no room to let other cars pass. Car parking is opposite the property on grass. We thank you for a lovely stay Hide
