About this property
This laid back single storey semi-detached coastal retreat in Burnham Overy Staithe is perfect for those wanting a quiet seaside escape to tuck themselves away from the outside world. With luxury touches throughout and beautifully simple and stylish natural interiors that echo the local landscape, this little hideaway is in easy walking distance of the harbour and a short paddle, walk or boat ride to the beach or beautiful Scolt Head Island.
You would be hard pushed to find a more perfect hideaway and The Seas Annex, sleeping two, ticks all the boxes. With practical floors throughout and large sliding glass doors to let the sunshine in and underfloor heating to keep toes warm in the cooler months, it is an ideal getaway whatever time of year you choose to visit.
To the front there is also an allocated parking space on the shingle driveway that is shared with the owners who live next door. Being local and keen cyclists and paddleboarders themselves, they will be able to give you insight on how best to enjoy this beautiful coast and advise on the best time to enjoy the water or pathways. There is also a separate secure side entrance to store bikes, paddleboards and wetsuits.
Relax in the lovely open-plan living space which includes a well-equipped designer kitchen, kitted out with all mod cons including a Nespresso coffee machine; a comfortable seating area for four, soft lighting and a Sonos sound system, plus space to enjoy dining inside and out.
The bedroom to the front of the annex features a comfortable king-size bed and a wall of fitted wardrobes, meaning there is plenty of space to unpack fully. Next to this is a bathroom which includes a bath with shower above and a light-filled hall with glass ceiling where you will find the entrance to the property and a porch area, perfect for leaving muddy boots. There is also space inside for hanging coats plus a separate utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer, iron and ironing board and clothes airer.
To the rear is a private garden terrace with garden furniture which is stocked full of shrubs and plants attracting birds and butterflies.
Start dreaming of days watching the early morning sunrise, spend long and lazy afternoons on the sun chairs in the tranquil courtyard garden, or head to the water just four minutes walk away and wade across the shallow water at low tide to the small beach opposite where you can enjoy feeling the sand between your toes. For a special treat, take the ferry which operates in high season to Scolt Head Island where you will be rewarded with empty white sandy beaches with only bird song for company. Alternatively, for the adventurists, hire out paddle boards from North Norfolk Paddle Boards located right next to the property, and meander through the creeks to get to Scolt Head.

Sorry, this property does not accept pets or children.
Please bring your own pods for the Nespresso coffee machine.

Wow, what a wonderful bolthole to have some R & R in! The Annex was a fab place to spend another week in our favourite place, North Norfolk .Finding new places and revisiting old ones. Thank you for creating such a stylish, comfortable and well equipped home. All the standards you hope for in a holiday rental were met 'with bells on'. And thank you for the more than generous Welcome Bag. Loved it all.

Our second visit to The Annex so we were instantly at home, it is the best holiday cottage we have ever rented. So well planned, well equipped and comfortable, and in such a stunning location. We've had a busy week exploring our favourite places and taking long walks, though the walk from the house along the staithe towards the beach takes some beating - the wildlife is amazing. Again we've eaten and drunk well in local hostelries and tonight great local produce from the Farmers Market at Creake Abbey. Not to be missed if you are here for the first Saturday of the month. We have every intention of returning in another eighteen months or so. Lovely goodies in the Welcome Pack, thank you.

Clean, spacious, modern, very relaxing patio and Garden area out the back. The welcome pack was an added bonus and very thoughtful of the owners.
