About this property

Set in the picturesque village of Winterton-on-Sea, this dog-friendly cottage invites you and family, or groups of six to settle in and make the most of its light, airy rooms and suntrap patio garden. With the sand dunes of Winterton Beach just 300 metres away, this is the perfect spot for a seaside getaway, with coastal walks and traditional attractions all around.

Step inside, and you'll discover a fully equipped kitchen catering to all your culinary needs. The dining area offers the perfect setting to share meals with loved ones, while the inviting living space at the rear of the kitchen features tasteful furnishings and natural light streaming through the patio doors. For added convenience, there's a downstairs cloakroom too. On the first floor, the cottage unfolds into two beautifully appointed bedrooms—a lovely king-size room with two skylights for stargazing and a twin room, both thoughtfully decorated in coastal tones. These bedrooms share the contemporary family bathroom. Ascend to the top floor to discover a spacious bedroom with views of the dunes, offering an equally comfortable king-size bed and an elegant en-suite bathroom. The rear of the cottage boasts a well-maintained, fully enclosed garden—a delightful suntrap with a patio and garden furniture, providing the perfect spot to enjoy a drink or al fresco meals.

Immerse yourself in the welcoming atmosphere of this quaint village, complete with a traditional tearoom, a friendly local pub, and a convenient village shop. Indulge in the delectable seafood offerings at renowned coastal restaurants or savour a pint of locally brewed ale. A short stroll from the cottage brings you to the stunning Winterton Dunes less than 200 metres away, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Here, you and your furry friends can enjoy leisurely walks along the expansive sandy beach that stretches for miles. Nature enthusiasts can explore Horsey Gap (5 miles), known for its fascinating seal colony during the winter months.

      Have just spent a lovely week in Swallowtail Cottage. Perfect and homely with everything you need for a relaxing time away. House is spacious. Bedrooms all large and tastefully decorated. Lovely comfy beds and lovely bedding. Dog bowl and bed also handy and small but pretty garden and enclosed so useful and safe for the dog and I can imagine is lovely in the summer. House was very clean upon arrival. Chocolates were a nice touch. Parking for 2 cars was handy at the side of the house. Kitchen has a washing machine and dryer and all the utensils you can possibly need. Great location for the beach which was great to walk the dog on. Nice and quiet and literally on your doorstep through the dunes. Was amazing to see the seals at Hornsey. Handy premier shop for essentials 5 mins away and Tesco and Lidl about 15 - 20 mins away. Lots of places to visit nearby. Lovely village pub 10 minutes walk away. Had a lovely meal at the boat house which was recommended by the cottage owner. Had a problem with the washing machine and the owners came out promptly and fixed the problem. They were lovely and friendly and gave some advice on where was nice to eat. Would highly recommend staying at this cottage and would love to come back and visit soon.

      Great location for walking to beach, shop, fish and chip shop and the village pub. Comfy bed and pillows.
