About this property

Sea Palling 2.9 miles. Perched on the outskirts of the ancient fishing village of Eccles-on-Sea, Norwich, is this splendid detached house, Windyridge. All-ground-floor and sleeping up to six guests, Windyridge is a homely and contemporary setting for a group of family or friends to explore the beautiful city of Norwich and the pristine beaches along the Norfolk coast. Approaching the property, you will find ample parking for at least eight cars on the gravel driveway, where you can unload your bags and make the few short steps to the house to begin your holiday. Be welcomed into the contemporary living/dining room, where you can enjoy curling up on the large corner sofa and relaxing in front of the woodburning stove with your favourite film on the TV. The designated chef will have all they need to whip up delicious treats for the group in the fully functioning kitchen, which has a handy dishwasher making cleaning up a breeze! Gather around the dining table to enjoy a glass of your favourite tipple and a board game, catching up and sharing laughs with the rest of your group. Windyridge has all sleeping arrangements covered, with a generous king-size room with day bed and TV, a double room, and a twin room, all beautifully decorated cohesively with the other rooms. Guests will benefit from a shower room, where they can freshen up after a long day at the beach and prepare to settle down for the evening with a cup of tea. Enjoy breakfast out on the decking area on the lovely picnic bench, looking out across the sand dunes, before heading down to the beach via the ramp at the end of the drive. Venture down to the small coastal village of Eccles-on-Sea, which rests on the east of the Norfolk coast, within easy access of neighbouring villages Happisburgh and Sea Palling. Take advantage of Eccles’ own beach, known to be one of the cleanest in Britain with sandy shores that are perfect for sandcastle building, dog walking and beachcombing. Take a stroll to the village of Happisburgh, home to the oldest working lighthouse in the UK, or the village of Sea Palling which has an award-winning Blue Flag beach with RNLI guards on duty every day, as well as being home to the lifeboat station itself. If you can tear yourself away, the market town of Stalham is just a short drive away and offers good selection of amenities as well as the Grade II Firehouse Museum, taking visitors through 173 years of firefighting history within the town, and the Museum of the Broads detailing the history of The Norfolk Broads. Just a little further is the town of North Walsham where you can get your heart rate up in the swimming and fitness centre or challenge your group to a game of bowling. Unleash your inner historian and visit the village of Blickling, home to the esteemed National Trust-owned Blickling Estate, the birthplace of Anne Boleyn, where you can tour the house, gardens and parkland. Windyridge is a peaceful home away from home, perfect for those wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The perfect tourist base for exploring the picturesque Norfolk Coast and the peaceful Norfolk Broads, Sea Palling is ideally located within equal distance of Great Yarmouth, Cromer and Norwich. Home to an award-winning Blue Flag beach where visitors can swim, beach-comb the shores or get involved with a variety of watersports, whilst feeling safe with the observing rnli lifeguards on duty every day, as well as the lifeguard base itself. Take a stroll into the village and treat yourself to a bite at the good selection of cafes or your favourite tipple at the local pub.

    Excellent position by the sand dunes and sea . Lovely large garden to play in . Excellent facilities in the house , and easy to clean . Everything has been thought out , even a tap outside for sandy feet . Only draw back , floor not level in the living room , but just need to remember the step !!! Have booked again for next year

    The house is cosy, modern and full with anything that you can think of for a great stay, fast Wi-Fi, magazines, books, games and a well stocked kitchen with any utensil you may require for your stay. The master bedroom is huge with an Emma mattress and good quality bed sheets, if you listen carefully you can hear the sea from this room. All other rooms were comfortable and had their own TV. The garden is huge and has a shed with some outdoor games inside and storage for body boards, bikes and sandy shoes. We spotted a family of hares, various birds and a deer during our stay all from the comfort of the sofa that looks out to the garden. The garden also has a bench looking out to the sea where we spotted some seals swimming. We spent most mornings and evenings on the bench watching the sun rise and set. If you are looking for a tranquil space to stay, with good walks and that is in a good position to visit coastal villages this is it!
