Location is perfect took us about 6 minutes to the beach. The property was well equipped but things need replacing, also could do with a deep clean (cobwebs and skirting boards).

This is a lovely little terraced house 10 minutes walk to the beach. It has a pleasant decent size garden suitable for dogs - I sat out every morning for breakfast.The house is spotless and has everything you need for your holiday.There are shops nearby and plenty to do on and near the beach. If you want to go further afield, starting with great Great Yarmouth has plenty of fun things to do.Also, if you don't want to drive the bus service is a good alternative.Give it a try - I had a great time with my twin teenage grandsons!
