NORFOLK BEACH HOUSE
Little
Travellers Lodgings by the Sea for 2
ABOUT
Owned by interior designer and event planner, Little NBH was a year in the making. It's the culmination of toil, restoration and passion. The ambition was to restore a Regency C1830 apartment to its former glory, but with the luxury of modern amenities.
This beautiful sea-view apartment lies in the heart of Cromer, North Norfolk, in the iconic (and oldest) Jetty Street, which leads directly to the famous Cromer Pier and beautiful beach.
The apartment has been lovingly restored and is now available for short term holiday stays. The property sleeps two in a stunning queen size cabin bed, with uninterrupted sea views to the East beach. This bedroom features Anna French wallpaper, a deep filling original Victorian cast iron bath and Burlington sink. Adjacent to this is The Bath House, a marble shower room, chrome Burlington WC and laundry closet. The owner keeps a second bedroom locked.
The cosy living room, is rich in textures and period features including a grandfather clock, writing desk and large leather sofa. The room has all the comforts of modern living, including smart TV, Wifi and Sonos speakers, but has an established air of tranquillity about it. The perfectly formed kitchen is hidden from view by two stunning Victorian sliding bar doors. It features a stunning sea view, mini electric Aga - ensuring the apartment is always cosy and warm, a Belfast sink and dresser base with Le Creuset pots, Wusthof knives and Nespresso machine.
The apartment has stunning sea views over a private garden and enjoys a tiny patio just outside the kitchen for that morning croissant and expresso. Sadly we do not have full access to the garden, as this is reserved for residents. The beach is just outside the door and pubs and shops just 50 meters away.

Looks old school, but serves up a mean thai and is good value
