We had a lovely, relaxing few days at Beachside. It was as described and very clean and well equipped. Communication with David, the host was very clear and timely. Would highly recommend it.
Fabulous cosy lodge literally a few steps from the beach. So quiet and peaceful.Great communication from David prior to arrival.It was everything we hoped it would be and more.
Our second time staying at this lovely beach lodge just a couple of minutes walk from Heacham beach. Lovely light modern lodge, comfortable accommodation, well laid out with everything you need for a holiday.
Really enjoyed our stay, very comfy, beds especially, everything we needed, perfect position, very quiet, stone throw from the beach. As we are all bird watchers, we were astounded at all the wildlife especially the birds, fabulous, would definitely stay again.
Once again we have had a very relaxing stay at Beachside.
By choice we ignore TV and computer and enjoy the excellent scenery and accommodation.

I stayed for a week with my 12 year old twins and my 11 year old son. The weather for the first part of the week was amazing and we enjoyed the easy and close location to the beach. The beach house itself was well appointed and had everything we needed for a mini break. David the owner was very helpful and Iâd recommend the house to anyone wanting a cozy family house near the beach.
Just a 3 night break, but we thoroughly enjoyed it. The lodge was exactly as described and had everything you could need. David the owner kept in touch from booking to departure and was very pleasant to deal with.
We had a great stay at beachside. We couldn't of asked for more . So nice and quiet and the children loved the ducks and swings in the garden. We'll definitely stay again
My sister travelled 5,000 miles from Canada and brought various members of the family, to share a holiday together. In total we had a party of 10, and having the two properties together was ideal.Our age range was 2-70,and it was ideal. A very peaceful location, lots of lovely walks
A fabulous stay in a lovely property. The owners were helpful and communication was swift and easy. The property is exactly as described. I was lucky with the weather so maximised on my opportunity to walk the stunning coastal paths in North Norfolk. The property is a perfect base to return to. It was very quiet (other than the glorious birdsong!) and felt like a home from home. I will return.
We have stayed here before and the accommodation is ideal if you want to leave the car and walk the coastline.
However, there is a good bus service to Hunstanton, the North Coast and adjacent places. Another lovely holiday.
Thank you.
The hosts were great with contact from start to finish. We arrived to find a cake and some milk, which was a thoughtful touch, and they checked in with us to make sure we had found the place too. The location is perfect; really close to the beach but also there's a river at the back of the lodge where you can sit on a swing and watch the birds for hours. My daughter loved it and loved feeding the birds too. The place was spotless. Beds were so comfy too. We will hopefully be back!
This is the fourth time we have stayed at this property, so we like it very much. It is well equipped and brilliantly located with very easy access to the beach, about a 50 meter walk and no roads to cross, and has the River Heacham behind it. The sunsets over the sea can be spectacular and the river has abundant wildlife. This time we saw a barn owl hunting just beyond the river. The walk along the beach to Hunstanton is well worth the effort. Access by car and bus to all of the beautiful North Norfolk coast is simple. Everywhere on this coastline is spectacular.
We spent a few days at Beachside over new year 2021/2, and loved it so much that we decided to do the same in 2022/3! The cabin is beautifully presented, immaculately clean - and very cosy for a winter break. It's wonderful having the beach right on your doorstep, with Snettisham nature reserve one way, and Hunstanton the other. David was very helpful and welcoming in communications as before. We can't recommend this property highly enough!
Splendid little lodge. Good heaterâs, perfect for the terrible weather we unfortunately had. We could turn them up when the gale was blowing and the hail came, then down again when the sun did decide to show.
We still had a lovely time and managed some bird watching by the river and talking to the ducks!
The beach was great, we even got a good sunset one evening.
The lodge had everything we needed and felt spacious in the main room.
David was very helpful with the booking as we are not good with computers.
This was our third stay in less than 12 months. Suits us perfectly, in a nice quiet area away from the crowds and less than a minute to walk to a lovely beach. We enjoyed our stay even more this time, first trip to Kings Lynn and Sandringham both highly recommended. Spotted lots of wildlife on or near Beachside including deer, oyster catchers and ringed plovers on the beach, partridge and a barn owl over the river just before dusk. Sunsets can be very spectacular. The weather was very kind allowing us to cook outside all 4 evenings.
Spotlessly clean property and very well equipped. Everything was exactly as we could have hoped for, and when we left an important item behind accidentally, David couldnât have been more helpful in making sure we got it back and sent it immediately (it was with us within 48 hrs). Highly recommend this stay. The only thing to mention is that the water quality ar Heacham is very poor and not recommended for swimming (at time of writing) - I didnât think to check this before hand but if you want to have a dip, youâll want to drive a bit further up the coast - there are lots of lovely places to explore. My kids particularly enjoyed shell collecting on the beach, and Sandringham and the amazing playground. Thank you for a lovely stay and being such helpful hosts.
We are a young family and purchased the The Old Barn, Holme, in 2006. We carried out a completed refurbishment and modernisation and continue to make little changes here and there every year. We live near Stamford and travel regularly to The Old Barn to escape work and immerse ourselves in the sheer beauty of all that the North Norfolk coast has to offer.
In 2007 we also bought two properties next to the beach at South Beach, Heacham. We thought these would be perfect for our children to grow up around and play by the beach in the traditional way.
Beachside is a perfect base from which to enjoy beach activities. A fabulous vantage point to watch the sun rise over the grazing fields and snettisham woods, through to setting over the sand dunes. Surrounded by nature and an amazingly tranquil location.
