    The bungalow's position, on a delightfully quiet estate of bungalows, is fabulous. The bungalow had everything we wanted and could possibly have needed. All three bedrooms are of a good size and having a bathroom and a separate shower room is great as we were three couples sharing the accommodation. The lounge is a delightfully sunny, light room and as with all other rooms, extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen-diner was a lovely place in which to share meals (extremely well-equipped) The folder with operating instructions for the electrical equipment was very helpful. The 'corner-shop', just a short walk away, is very well-stocked and has very pleasant, informative staff (they made us feel very 'at-home').

About the location

SHERINGHAM

Cromer 4.8 miles.

Sheringham was originally a small fishing village on the North Norfolk coast, but with the arrival of the railways in 1887 it prospered and grew into a popular holiday town. Sheringham has been awarded ten consecutive European Blue Flags for cleanliness for its beach, along with awards from Britain in Bloom, Anglia in Bloom, and Best Coastal Resort. Enjoy walking along the East or West promenades, offering sea views with blue skies and red sunsets, a beach with a silver-pebbled shoreline leading to golden sands with rock pools and streams next to ochre cliffs, local fishing boats and a RLNI lifeboat station with museum. This attractive traditional seaside town also has the 'Little Theatre', open all year round, seaside gardens with seating, a model boating lake, independent shops, tea rooms, steam railway, golfing, amusement arcades, and fish & chip shops selling locally-caught fish.

Towels are NOT included for the foreseeable future.
