Location

Grayling House is tucked away down a quiet lane on the edge of Winterton-on-Sea, a pretty unspoilt village perched on the Norfolk Coast. It only takes 5 mins to walk to long sandy beaches which are dog friendly all year round.

The local Fisherman’s Return pub (dog friendly) serves good food, and is a 5 minute walk to from the property. Also in the village within walking distance you’ll find the village shop, Poppy’s post office and tea rooms (we can recommend the breakfasts), a fish & chip shop and Seal View café at the beach.

There’s an excellent choice of walks right from the doorstep, and Winterton Dunes is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). From the end of November to the beginning of January it’s pupping season for the local grey seal colony, with literally thousands of them on Horsey beach just 10 mins drive from Winterton. It’s an amazing sight to see.

For cyclists there’s a great choice of routes and trails to enjoy. A little further afield the Norfolk Broads offers scenic boat trips or hire your own boat for the day. There’s also fishing, kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding available.

For families, the seaside town of Gt Yarmouth is only a 15 minute drive away, with a sandy beach, end of pier entertainment, Sea Life centre, amusement arcades, pleasure beach, bowling, cinemas, Venetian Waterways, crazy golf and much more. We also recommend the award winning BeWILDerwood an outdoor tree house adventure park with zip wires, jungle bridges, marsh walks and boat rides - just a 20 minute drive away near Horning. Wroxham Barns is nearby with independent shops, craft studios, a kids' farm, funfair and restaurant.

The fine city of Norwich is a 40 minute drive away, and offers shopping, museums, restaurants and a choice of theatres.

There’s a great choice of places to eat out locally including beachside cafes, local pubs and fine dining restaurants and we provide all guests with a comprehensive list in our digital welcome information.

I booked this property for my birthday weekend away with my family. It was perfect for us all. The house is very well equipped with everything we needed. The location is perfect, a peaceful lane alongside fields with horses and very close to a fabulous beach. Would definitely book again.

Sanderlings is beautifully prepared and equipped. The decor was fresh and original. The kitchen and utility room are equipped with modern easy to use machines - though are missing a dishwasher. (But there is a wine fridge and washing machine). No problem; the grandchildren were keen and enjoyed helping with chores. The bedrooms are well decorated and in perfect order. The stairs - a bit steepish for the more senior member of the party - and the landing are well lit including with a modern and ingenious auto floor lighting system which ensured safety at all hours. The large conservatory adjoins the comfortable living area which is generously furnished with a multi-source wide screen TV and comfortable chairs and occasional table. Our 2 larg-ish labradors loved the secure garden and access - after inspection - to the conservatory where covered furniture provided comfort and a degree of style. In all, a lovely, peaceful, people- and dog-friendly weekend in.a modern, well-equipped family home. Thank you to all involved in enabling a great long weekend. Even the seals in the sea and on the beach seemed in good heart. We could not have asked for more (except perhaps a dishwasher!).

We had a lovely time at Grayling House - the house is in a perfect location, very quiet but within easy walking distance of the beach, shops and cafe. The house was spotlessly clean and was exactly as it was described. The village is lovely and has some great places to go within a short drive, including some great walks and shops. would thoroughly recommend.

We loved our week at Grayling House primarily for its position close to the beach for a morning dog walk and access to the rest of the stunning coast and beaches and to the Broads national park. We had great fun exploring and the location made this really easy. We liked Winterton as it had such a calm and homely feel as a village. Not as touristy as some of the local towns nearby. The house itself had three really comfortable bedrooms with great showers - a must for us on holiday and something we look for in the photos. The middle room is a little small if a couple are using it and lacked storage, but the other two were excellent for couples etc. The deck is a lovely feature and we utilised the BBQ with an excellent butchers in Hemsby we frequented regularly. The only downside of the deck was distance from the kitchen and access through the bedroom which we felt limited its use. If the house had been designed with living quarters on the upper floor this would have been an amazing extension to the layout. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything you could need. We couldn’t find the sharp knife drawer initially (hidden under the hob) but the hosts responded in minutes to a request to help find it via an email. We used the washing machine and this was fine but dryer was ineffective but I think that’s the nature of washer/dryers. Overall we would return as we loved the location and access we got. The lane is very quiet and peaceful so as a place to get away from it all it is a hidden gem. Would recommend.

A beautiful house in a great location a few minutes walk to the village and the amazing beach.My only criticism would be the lounge is a bit on the small side for 6 adults but otherwise no issues. The welcome information sent before we arrived was really useful and a nice touch. The garden is really enclosed so the dogs were quite safe roaming around. Overall a great holiday thankyou.

The house was very well equipped and comfortable for 3 couples. The 3 en suites bedrooms were a game changer. Wonderful peaceful location on a footpath just 2 minutes from the beautiful dunes. Everything provided including dog bowls, tea towels and dishwasher tablets. We would definitely return.

We had a great weekend with friends in this cottage. It's near the coast and we walked the coastal path and saw the seal pups. The pub in the village was great and in walking distance. The cottage was perfect for 3 couples with all rooms being ensuite. A perfect, winter walking weekend.

We stayed here for a weekend in November, unfortunately we had dreadful weather so it was lucky we had such a wonderful place to stay. Very clean and modern with all that you could need, 3 ensuite rooms and lovely balcony which I would like to come back and use in the summer months. Good location as lots of beaches and Yarmouth close. Delicious chip shop at the end of the road too. I would highly recommend this property to others and I would like to come back again in the future.

Had a 4 night break at Grayling House with 2 friends so 3 ensuite bedrooms was perfect. The house was spotlessly clean and had every thing you need for your holiday with really comfy sofas, beds and powerful hot showers. The upstairs terrace is lovely but unfortunately due to the weather we didn't get to use it much - so will need to return during the summer months. As others have mentioned, storage in the bedrooms is limited especially in the green bedroom but this would not stop me from returning in the future. Location is down an unmade road so there are quite a few pot holes and puddles if its been raining but its lovely and quiet and only a few minutes walk to the dunes/beach/village amenities. We had a lovely lunch and breakfast at Poppy's, and dinner at the local pub plus great fish and chips from the chippy. Would highly recommend Winterton on Sea as its such a friendly village and a great place to bring the dog and I would definitely return to Grayling House.

Lovely clean modern & spacious house. Well equipped kitchen & a very quiet location - walkable to fabulous beach & village amenities. Three en-suite bedrooms (not much storage space) but otherwise great, with king size beds in each. Fab large TV, superb balcony with large settee and dining table. Great for us 4 adults & one child. Highly recommended!

Had a great weekend with friends at Grayling House. All enjoyed the stay and the surrounding area. Nice decking to sit outside. Well equipped with all that is needed for a great holiday . Agree with the previous comment that there could be more storage for clothes, especially in middle bedroom. Would definitely stay again.

Had wonderful stay at Grayling House everything as described. My only comment would be that upstairs the storage is limited. We were blessed with lovely weather for four of our five days and the upstairs deck is a great place to take your coffee.....just need to teach our dog how to climb stairs! Will definitely return.

We had a lovely week in this modern property that had everything you could need for an enjoyable holiday. Little touches like automatic night lighting and torches for walking in the dark were appreciated. Would love to come back in the summer to fully enjoy the upstairs terrace. Highly recommend.

The best property we have visited in the East Coast region by far! Top quality residence with everything you would need and so very quiet and relaxing. Location is perfect for walks in the dunes or along the pristine sandy beaches. Very friendly people in the village and The Fisherman’s Return pub is not to be missed. We will definitely be returning - if there is any availability!!…..
