The Shielings

The Shielings has something for everyone – secure garden, hot tub, outside bar and there are also hidden magical rooms… more explained further on! The property has hard flooring throughout, fabulous for visiting pooches. It is ideal for a family holiday right throughout the year and is a perfect place to explore Norfolk’s beaches, Broads and countryside. Because The Shielings is on the outskirts of the village, it is quiet and peaceful and has the most amazing views from all front windows across to the dunes. There is a bridle path on the opposite side of the road, and it takes just 8 minutes to walk to the beach from there. It is also just a short 10-minute walk away from the hub of a beautiful seaside village, the main beach entry, with access to cafes, fish and chip shop, a pub, an amusement arcade,a local shop which sells practically everything(!) and a Post Office. It is an ideal base to take the opportunity to explore all along our Norfolk coast! Turn right on entry to the beach to walk along to Waxham and Horsey…. Great for seal-spotting! Or get out and about in the car and visit Winterton-on-Sea, Happisburgh and further up the coast to Mundesley, Cromer, Sheringham, Blakeney, Holkham and Wells! If you want to pop along to a quieter beach in the busier months, head to Waxham, Cart Gap and Happisburgh. Even out with pupping season, you will still spot a seal or two (and they sometimes have great fun following your coastal walk whilst they keep up in the water) It is a short drive to Mundesley and Cromer (via the gorgeous coastal route) or Horsey, then Winterton on Sea the opposite way. Stalham town (3 miles away) has some lovely local shops, supermarket (Tesco) and we have lovely local individual shops dotted around our lovely coastal villages (The Fair Maiden fish shop at Happisburgh, Causeway Farm Butchers at Ingham, Ingham Farm Shop, Meales at Wayford Bridge and many more).
