The house had everything you need for a relaxing break and is perfect for access to the dunes and beach with the village close by with fish and chips and a pub. Perfect place to get away from it all.

Such a relaxing house, with immense sea views from the garden and the Conservatory. The hot tub was a bonus, and added to the holiday as a little luxury every evening to relax and watch the seascape and the numerous ships going past. Bedrooms and bathrooms a plenty and so much space for everyone. We would highly recommend this property for anyone wanting a quiet relaxing break. Winterton-o-sea is such a pretty village with a good post office, shop and pub.
