Reviewers unanimously commend the property's exceptional cleanliness, with one guest noting it as the cleanest they've ever seen, and another struggling to find a single weed in the garden.
The property's location is highly regarded for its proximity to local villages, stately homes, and the coast, with a bus stop nearby for convenience. One review mentioned a four-minute drive to the beach, indicating good accessibility.
Guests rave about the comfort of the property, highlighting the comfortable beds, quality of the furniture, and the cosy conservatory as aspects that contribute to a relaxing stay.

The owners' thoughtfulness is frequently mentioned, with gestures like early check-in, flowers, and biscuits. While these personal touches are appreciated, guests should note that such extras, while delightful, are subject to change and not guaranteed.
About this property
Perfectly situated in the pretty seaside village of Overstrand, this bungalow is great for families looking for an active North Norfolk getaway. It is less than half a mile to Overstrand Beach, where you can find plenty of sand for sandcastles and enjoy swimming and surfing. Check the tide times as the beach disappears completely at high tide! You can also access the Norfolk Coast Path and enjoy some spectacular cliff-top paths.
Enter this delightful bungalow with chic decor, furnishings, and plenty of space in each room. The lounge is warm and welcoming, with a stove-effect gas fire and a large Smart TV you can enjoy from the comfortable seating framing the room. This living space also provides access to the conservatory, where you can tuck into your meals on the dining seating. The kitchen is bathed in natural light and offers all the appliances needed for easy meal preparation. There is also a small breakfast bar for a morning brew. From the hallway are two bedrooms, one double en-suite and one twin. Both bedrooms have a Smart TV. Completing this lovely coastal retreat is a stylish bathroom. Outside is a wrap-around outdoor space, a patio and lawned area with comfortable outside seating to relax in on fine days.
The traditional seaside town of Cromer is just 2 miles away, bustling with local businesses offering a busier alternative to Overstrand for a day at the seaside. Fun for all the family is available at Amazona Zoo (3 miles), where you can discover more about the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest. Venture a little further to the seaside town of Sheringham (7 miles) and hop aboard the North Norfolk Steam Railway, taking you through the beautiful countryside to the Georgian market town of Holt, where you can follow the Owl Trail to discover the town's rich history.

It’s a pity there is not a higher category than gold or five stars that can be awarded to a property. Foxgloves would definitely be in it if there was. We have stayed in different holiday properties twice a year for forty years in many different parts of the uk. This is, without doubt, the cleanest, most well cared for, immaculate property we have ever seen. The furniture throughout is a lovely solid oak. The carpets and blinds all look as if they were installed only yesterday. The bedding including the duvets and pillows are all absolutely spotless. The beds are unbelievably comfortable. The garden is as well cared for as the bungalow. I had a hard time finding a single weed! This is a wonderful property. It is only about a four minute drive to the cliff top car park and beach. There is a lovely little garden centre just down the road. Although there is only one village store and post office it stocks most things. From this property you have access to a wealth of lovely coastal villages, stately homes and more than one steam railway. There is also the Norfolk Broads plus Norwich for major shopping. Foxgloves is an amazing property set in a lovely county which is overrun with things to see and do. We just wish every property was as good as this one!
