Escape to this oasis within the bustling Norfolk town of Cromer. Offering single-storey accommodation, the three-bedroom abode enjoys a unique setting, close to the heart of the town and its beach, 150 metres away, yet also on a quiet, residential road. With a sizeable, lawned garden, it makes a great base for a family or group of friends to return to after their days out. Visit Overstrand, 2 miles away, or East Runton, with its popular beach, 1.5 miles away. Plan days out to family attractions and beauty spots, such as Amazona Zoo, less than 1 mile away, or Blakeney, 13 miles away, where you can walk out to the point or book a boat trip out to see the seals.

Wander into this homely abode and make yourselves comfortable after your exhilarating excursions. Head into the lounge/diner to spend your evenings together watching a film on the Smart TV or DVD player perhaps or playing games or reading your books. Take turns at preparing meals for your party through in the kitchen, which comes well equipped with a gas oven and hob, microwave, fridge and dishwasher, then sit down at the table together afterwards in the lounge/diner. There is a useful utility room, complete with washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer. When the day draws to a close, make your way through to the twin bedroom or one of the two king-size rooms. One of these has an en-suite shower room, with walk-in shower and WC, while the other has zip-and-link beds that can be made up as 2' 6" twins if requested at the time of booking. There is a family bathroom, with shower over the bath and WC.

Bask in the sunshine out in the attractive garden. Have a sundowner before bed on balmy evenings. There is parking for three cars.

Lovely bungalow, really large spacious rooms. Beds very comfortable, kitchen well equipped. Nice mature garden and parking for two cars. Situated very close to town but in a very quiet spot. Was perfect for us.

Well appointed, roomy bungalow with good parking and facilities. Very well located for beach and town ( walking distance for both). We were a family of 5 adults with 2 cars and it was perfect for us. The only slight negative was that both showers were very weak. There is also a bath however which we also used. We would happily stay at this propertyRead more again. Hide

Comfortable property in a quiet location, while still being in a walkable distance for all Cromer amenities. Off road parking makes it a handy base for exploring further afield.

Whelk Holme is well appointed and is within walkable distance to all amenities in Cromer, but has the major bonus of parking if you want to travel around and visit more of the Norfolk coast and country. We didn't spend much time outside this visit, but the garden is secluded, sheltered and well cared for.

We enjoyed a lovely family holiday with the beach so close by and a great garden for cricket football and just to chill in. Cromer is a home from home for us all, Whelkhome is that also.

Excellent location, quiet, secluded and private yet very close to the town centre and seafront of Cromer. An extremely spacious property. Marked down slightly for an extremely small tv in a large room, internet was also rather unreliable in the evenings. Very small freezer for such a large kitchen and utility room, not helped that one frreezer drawRead moreer was stuck frozen and appeared to have some food remaining in it. But overall, an excellent property. Hide
