Location, location, location

Situated on a country lane leading directly to miles of unspoilt sandy beaches and the sea. It’s a 5-minute walk to the beautiful beaches of Holme, but you’re also close to amenities and attractions when you want them.

A short drive takes you to the popular seaside resort of Hunstanton, or ‘sunny hunny’ as it’s known, with its wide range of boutique shops, restaurants, fairground, and leisure activities.

The cottage is also close to Thornham, Heacham, Brancaster, Burnham Market and the renowned beaches of Wells-next-the-Sea: all offering tasty local produce, eateries and pubs.

You’ll soon find that one visit’s not enough. You’ll want to return to Scalp Cottage time after time.

“We really enjoyed our first ever visit to Norfolk. The location of Scalp Cottage was perfect for us and our dog. The White Horse pub in the village was very friendly with good food and beer. The walk across the meadow to the village was ideal in the evening.”

“This is a great location for bird watchers and we made the most of the easy access to the coast path and the marshes. We also had good sightings of barn and short eared owls in the dunes and shore larks and numerous waders on the coast.”

“Well, what a lovely spot to explore from. Very comfortable, well equipped and a delightful garden (loved the cuckoos) to sit and enjoy this beautiful part of Norfolk.”
