Guests say

See The Sea is a well-situated cottage in Hunstanton, Norfolk, offering proximity to the seafront and town amenities. Guests appreciate the generous welcome pack and the property's central location. While some guests have concerns about privacy and parking, others enjoy the views and find the property convenient for local attractions.

The cleanliness of the property has received mixed feedback. Some guests found the property to be satisfactory, while others reported issues with cleanliness, including finding half-eaten food and dirt upon arrival. This suggests room for improvement in this area.

The location is highly praised for its proximity to the seafront and town centre, with easy access to shops, cafes, and restaurants. The scenic views and peaceful setting are also noted, although parking challenges have been mentioned.

Comfort has been a point of contention among guests. While some found the property clean and the views lovely, others were dissatisfied with the quality of the furniture and the lack of privacy, which impacted their overall comfort.

Facilities have received varied responses. Guests enjoyed the garden and welcome pack, but there were concerns about the kitchen equipment, including the absence of a full-size cooker and the condition of the fridge. Maintenance issues were also highlighted.

The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident in the welcome pack provided, which includes items such as fruit and wine. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be a consistent offering for all stays.

About this property

This delightful bungalow sits at the edge of the grounds of St Edmund’s Church in the centre of Hunstanton's conservation area. Situated just paces from a range of amenities and a sandy beach, with outstanding views overlooking the sea, See The Sea is a magnificent choice for up to six guests looking to escape to this coastal region of Norfolk. After a day meandering the coastline, look forward to curling up in the lounge and catching up on your favourite shows from the Smart TV, or simply gaze out the window and admire the distant sea views. Move into the kitchen, where you can rustle up a hearty dish, assisted by a range of appliances, before settling down at the dining table and enjoying the company of each other. This Hunstanton cottage offers two tasteful bedrooms, including a family room with king-size bed and two singles, along with a king-size, each neatly presented with ample storage. Start the morning with a refreshing rinse in the bathroom, choosing between the bath or shower over, before wandering the nearby supermarket and picking up the ingredients for a big breakfast. Less than half a mile away lies the golden sand of Hunstanton Beach, offering a combination of sand, shingle, and white striped cliffs. Take a short walk to the award-winning Esplanade Gardens which are located atop of the red and white striped cliffs of Old Hunstanton before relaxing upon the sandy trails of the beach. Refuel with some tasty fare at Henry's, voted the best fish and chips in West Norfolk or choose from several takeaways nearby to be enjoyed in your new home-from-home. Continue along to RSPB Titchwell Marsh, a lovely sandy beach and nature reserve where you can hire binoculars to observe the surrounding wildlife and birds such as the Marsh Harrier and Avocet. Hunstanton town centre provides a choice of shops and eateries, ranging from restaurants to tea rooms and takeaways. Head out to the medieval town of King's Lynn and explore the many historical buildings, rich heritage, and some excellent markets. For entertainment, why not catch the evening matinee at The Princess Theatre, offering a variety of shows and concerts and only paces away from the property. However you choose to spend your time, return to the comfort of See The Sea and recharge your batteries.

  • Janice

    Clean and comfortable. Downside was kitchen facilities were poor. No proper cooker,no washing machine,no freezer and small fridge. OK if your happy to eat out.

  • Sidney

    Plenty of space in the bungalow. We were very impressed with the generous welcome pack especially the fruit bowl. Only thing we struggled a bit with was the lack of a full size cooker. Not used to a microwave or air fryer for cooking. Plenty of eating places within walking distance. Lovely play park near by which the grandchildren enjoyed.

  • Geoff

    Well situated in the town. Slightly quirky kitchen arrangements, Fridge is a bit ancient and a bigger toaster would be a good idea. Not much room for clothes. Oh and why is tv tuned to North and not East Anglia
