About this property
Approached by the main coastal road, this large property sits on a quiet stretch of country lane that runs through the village of Heacham. Sunset View is a modern property, finished to an excellent standard throughout with touches of a nautical theme, this house would be an excellent home-from-home for large families, or gatherings of friends. The front door leads into the long and spacious entrance hallway, with the front room being the snug to the right, a perfect spot to leave the kids in to watch some TV, play some of the provided games or have a quiet moment on the plush seating. Moving out of here, past the downstairs cloakroom with basin and WC, find the sitting room which contains plenty of inviting sofas for all to nestle into their own spot and relax for the evening when you have decided what to put on the TV, or simply switch the devices off and let the wine flow as you catch up with old friends. For cooking, dining and all things food, head into the kitchen/diner, discover the many appliances integrated into the sleek kitchen design, enjoy a morning coffee at the breakfast bar, and in the evening dine around the large farmhouse style table. Large floor to ceiling glass bi-folding doors lead you out to the garden, featuring a patio with a long outdoor table and bench seating, perfect for enjoying food cooked on the gas barbecue on a sunny summer day, while the kids run up the garden steps to play on the lawn. If the weather isn't in your favour, close the glass doors and take a seat in the soft chairs and watch the rain hit the glass as you sip a warm drink on a slow afternoon. The sleeping arrangements are very favourable with attractive bedrooms offering lovely resting spots, the master bedroom featuring an impressive super-king bed as well as an en-suite shower room and a balcony which overlooks the front of the house, with views towards the golf course and the sea beyond on a clear day, but best of all this is where the sun sets, so you can share a perfect moment sat on the balcony as the sun disappears into the sea. The other bedrooms include three doubles, and a twin room all complete with built-in wardrobe storage and pretty furnishings, served by the bathroom which contains a classic slipper bath and a walk-in shower for the best of both worlds. This is area is superb for exploring the natural scenery of the area, as in one direction you can travel to the Norfolk Coast AONB, and in the other you come to The Wash National Nature Reserve, both bursting with wildlife and stunning vistas to behold. In the former a network of country roads, lanes and bridleways can be traveled by walking or cycling, bringing you through varied landscapes and villages, never being too far from a pub, cafe or shop to get some refreshments. Head over to The Wash, the biggest nature reserve in England the most important wetland in the UK, as well as being one of the best breeding areas in England for seals! Follow on of the number of footpaths to access the reserve to experience the stunning natural beauty of this place. Sunset View will be sure to impress you with it's gorgeous layout and decor, and so will the wonders of the Norfolk Coast.

Fabulous weather, the golfers had a great time at the course across the road. Wonderful views of the course and can see the sea in the distance. A couple of minor issues - details left in comments book but nothing to spoil the holiday. I have back problems and struggled with the dining chairs but we found a chair in the garage and used that, so all was well. Would be very happy to come back - missing it already.

This was a special holiday with all our family. I spoke to the owner, what a lovely man and he assured me everything would be fine. . When we arrived we were really happy with the house. Ten of us, three generations had a fantastic time. Loads of space, the kids could play on their devices we could chill out in another room. The beds were comfortable and clean. The position of this house is great for getting about. It's called sunset view and they are beautiful to see. We will book again. Perfect.
