Description

Tucked away down a quiet road in the Long Beach area of Hemsby, Marram Sands is a spacious detached bungalow just two minutes’ walk from the dunes leading to a quieter stretch of beach. Head 5–10 minutes in the other direction and you’ll reach the main Hemsby Beach with its shops, cafés, amusements and everything you’d expect from a traditional seaside holiday.

A key feature of this lovely property is the sunny patio and enclosed garden, with glimpses of the sea. Inside, the large open-plan living room offers comfortable seating, a smart TV with Freeview and a cosy woodburner for the cooler months. The dining table seats six and can also be converted into a mini pool table for a bit of evening fun. Guests can also enjoy the unique addition of a jukebox.

The kitchen leads off the dining area and is well equipped with a double electric oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and washer/dryer. A door leads directly from the kitchen to the back garden. Alternatively, you can pass through the study – which has a desk and printer – into the conservatory, which also opens onto the garden. Outside there is plenty of garden furniture including a table and chairs, perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach.

Marram Sands has been thoughtfully set up to offer easy access throughout. There are no steps anywhere on the drive, in the garden or inside the bungalow, creating a level layout throughout. Ramps are provided for the conservatory so a mobility scooter or standard wheelchair can comfortably access the main living areas including the conservatory, kitchen and lounge/diner. The property also features a walk-in shower with a seat and grab rail for additional comfort and convenience.

The main bedroom has a super king-size bed and an ensuite with walk-in shower, washbasin and WC. Bedroom two has twin 3' single beds, while bedroom three has twin 2'6" single beds which are more suitable for children. The main bathroom includes a bath, large walk-in shower, washbasin and WC, and there is also a separate WC just off the entrance hall.

The garden is enclosed and very private, and there are miles of wonderful coastal walks right on the doorstep. Winterton-on-Sea is a pleasant 15–20 minute walk away, or you can explore the Norfolk Broads, which are within easy driving distance. There is off-road parking for 2–3 cars.

1–2 dogs are welcome to stay free of charge. We kindly ask that dogs are kept to the living areas and off the furniture.

Location

Marram Sands is tucked away on a quiet lane in the Long Beach area of Hemsby. It's a 5-10 minute walk to the dunes and long sandy beaches, or a 10 minute walk to the village of Hemsby where there are traditional amusements, entertainment, shops, restaurants, cafés and takeaways. You can also walk to Winterton-on-Sea through the dunes where you'll find the Fishermans Return pub, Poppy's Tea Room and Seal View cafe at the beach.

Great Yarmouth is just 6 miles away, with two piers offering a choice of live shows and music as well as ten pin bowling. Along the seafront you'll find everything this traditional seaside resort has to offer including amusements, Joyland funfair for children, Greay Yarmouth Pleasure Beach, Pirates Cove crazy golf, the Sea Life Centre, the Marina leisure centre with wave pool and a long wide sandy beach.

From late autumn until the end of January you'll be able to see the grey seal colony and their pups at nearby Horsey which is only a 15 minute drive away. You can park at the Dunes Cafe in Waxham or at the Nelson Head in Horsey - we recommend both even if you're not seal watching.

The Norfolk Broads are nearby, and there's a huge choice of boat trips or private day boat hire. Or for the more adventurous there's kayaking, canoeing or stand up paddle boarding. There are miles of inland waterways to explore, with plentiful wildlife and bird life to be found nearby.

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

The accommodation is very comfortable and spacious, well-equipped and totally safe and practical for your dog. The location is perfect - dune walks nearby and the beautiful beach and clear sea just beyond that. The area is so quiet and peaceful - even the seagulls were quiet. We had a wonderful time - especially as I was recovering from surgery.

The Bungalow itself was beautiful inside and out. The garden was lovely and well loved by the dog. The beach wasn’t even 10 minutes away from the front door. We very much enjoyed our stay. The bungalow was equipped with things to keep you entertained inside and was peaceful and comfortable.

Marram Sands is the perfect place for the beach and walking to Hemsby. The accommodation is comfortable and the jukebox is fun. It was so good we have booked again.

Enjoyed our week here immensely, thanks. Everything here we could possibly need. All very thoughtfully provided. Will be booking again for later in the year. A happy holiday spent walking and seal watching. We also loved Wroxham.

Lovely accommodation with lots of thought to whatever a guest might need. Exceptional warm weather for October so lots of fab beach walks and plenty of places for food and any supplies you may need. See you again next year!

A comfortable and relaxing bungalow. We loved the easy access to the beach! A most enjoyable holiday exploring parts of Norfolk we didn't know about.
