Set along the North Norfolk coast in the village of Bacton, this seaside cottage sleeps up to six guests and sits 300 metres from a broad, unspoilt stretch of sand linking Mundesley (3.5 miles) and Walcott (1 mile). It’s the kind of shoreline where the horizon feels endless and, on quieter days, seals can often be spotted offshore.
Inside, the cottage has a warm, lived-in character that makes it feel immediately inviting. The kitchen/diner sits at the heart of the home, fully equipped for everything from leisurely breakfasts to evening suppers around the table. From here, the lounge encourages restful evenings in, with deep seating arranged around a striking open fireplace and a Smart TV for film nights and box sets. A distinctive feature is the ground-floor bathroom, where an original ornamental fireplace adds extra charm. It’s a lovely setting for a long soak, combining comfort with a sense of history. Also on the ground floor is the first of four bedrooms: a double room with a TV, en-suite shower room and glazed doors opening directly onto the garden. Upstairs, three further bedrooms maintain the coastal feel. There’s an additional double and two single rooms, each with cheerful decor and views across the surrounding landscape, along with a separate WC on this level. Outside, the property is framed by enclosed gardens to both front and rear, letting you follow the sun from morning through to evening. The rear garden opens onto a generous lawn with outdoor seating and field views beyond, creating a calm backdrop for outdoor meals or quiet moments. Private parking is available for up to three cars.
The village itself keeps things simple and convenient, with a local shop, cafe and takeaway options close at hand, making everyday living easy. A 2-mile drive brings you to Bacton Woods, a 113-hectare network of trails ideal for walking, cycling and wildlife spotting, while further exploration leads inland to the waterways of the Norfolk Broads via Stalham (7 miles) or Waxham (10.5 miles).
