About the home
Near enough, a stone’s throw away from the fabulous tranquil sandy beach of Caister On Sea and a short drive to the famous Norfolk Broads. The property offers a fantastic large open-plan space for your dream family vacation. It is finished in a timeless décor, light, airy and very cosy. The property comes with free parking & free WIFI.
The house is spacious, light and airy. Decorated in a contemporary style with attention to detail and a view to comfort with high quality furniture. The open air plan (kitchen/dining room/lounge) is really nice bringing everyone together around the large dining table. The kitchen is fully equipped. The lounge is very comfortable with reclining sofas. There is a further sitting area which is nice. The bedrooms are spacious, elegantly decorated and comfortable.
The space
Internally, the property is served by a fully equipped modern kitchen with kettle, coffee maker, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and all the other essentials.
The lounge has a flat-screen smart TV and internet for guests to use, a large leather sofa, wooden floors, and patio doors to the garden.
The bathrooms feature a roll-top bath, powerful showers and plenty of hot water.
There are four bedrooms, including 2 ensuites, served by three bathrooms. Three bedrooms are on ground level, and there is a further single trundle room in the loft, up one flight of stairs.
We do have a couple more separate seating areas internally in the master bedroom, in the third bedroom, in the kid’s loft space, and finally, in the front reception area. You can glimpse the sea from the loft window, and the beach is a mere three minutes stroll down a safe pedestrian walkway from the property.
Outside:
Villa Shona has two separate outdoor seating areas linked to the house by wide glass sliding doors to enhance the indoor-outdoor connection. The first space has a slabbed area, an outdoor lounge area with an L-shaped outdoor sofa to seat 8, and table on a decked surface, and the rest has artificial grass.
The second space has patio slabs and an outdoor dining area with a large extendable table and chairs next to the BBQ stand. There is also a moveable sun umbrella.
Both areas are enclosed and offer a fantastic outdoor living option, yet are well connected to the house interior.
Parking is available for up to 4 cars, depending on the size of the cars, and there is free off-street parking within walking distance from the house.
Guest access
You will have private access and use of the whole property and a safe footpath from the property to the beach.
Other things to note:
For the local indoor swimming facilities and other indoor activities, located right on the seafront in Great Yarmouth, approximately 10 minutes drive from the property, please look up Marina Leisure Centre Great Yarmouth, where you can pre-book your sessions and access all required information.
Caister on Sea
Explore Norfolk from the beautiful Villa Shona. Whether you are here for the various beaches of Norfolk (like Hunstanton, Cromer, Great Yarmouth, etc), boat rides on the Norfolk Broads or exploring the historic fine city of Norwich, we truly believe this is a unique place to use as your base. There is so much to do and see all within short drives or walks from the property.
The location is excellent – on the coast and only a short walk to the beach but with rural Norfolk and The Broads easily accessible by car. On a practical note, there are two major supermarkets, a bakery, and restaurants nearby, and like the beach, the village centre and shops are also only a short walk away – as are two local pubs! So all-in-all, an excellent base for a Norfolk ‘staycation’.
We have golf, swimming and gym facilities within walking distance. Great Yarmouth is less than a ten-minute drive and has plenty of clubs, pubs, restaurants, arcades, cinemas, the pier and several other attractions and activities for everyone (some are seasonal).
Caister On Sea does have public bus services and taxis in operation so getting around without the use of a car is still possible to a lot of places.
The bustling market town of Norwich is about 45 minutes away with its picturesque lanes, buzzy market, cultural displays and dining treats. And of course, there are our two famous Cathedrals and Norwich Castle, which the Normans built as a Palace over 900 years ago. It is now a museum and art gallery where children can discover more about East Anglia’s Queen Boudicca. The Museum of Norwich is packed full of exhibitions and interactive displays, or why not enjoy taking the hop-on-hop-off bus to see the city?
Great Yarmouth – a lively resort with an endless list of entertainment and places to eat – not forgetting the Pleasure Beach with its infamous Snail ride, a nine-acre amusement park, the Time and Tide Museum and the brilliant Hippodrome Circus – one of the last purpose-built circus buildings in the UK. Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens is a must if you love animals, and Pettitts Animal Adventure Park has something to do with children of all ages.
Not far away is Lowestoft, a fabulous seaside town with much entertainment, including the wonderful Somerleyton Hall and Gardens, the East Anglia Transport Museum, Africa Alive, Sparrow’s Nest and Gardens, the Marina Theatre and various other museums. There’s also an arcade on Claremont Pier with over 35 rides. If you fancy something a bit more energetic, why not test your nerves at Pleasurewood Hills Family Theme Park. Set in 50 acres, the theme park has rides up to 50mph as well as water-based ones. Smaller children will enjoy the Flying Elephant ride and Big Train – there are also sea lion and parrot shows.
