Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Winterton-on-Sea

Holiday cottages in Winterton-on-Sea enjoy access to an unspoiled stretch of the North Sea coast in the county of Norfolk. The village’s vast, sandy beach stretches north and south for miles and is the perfect spot for a day of sunbathing, building sandcastles, and swimming.  The Winterton Dunes lie between the village centre and the beach. Stroll through this maze of sand dunes, enjoy the views out to sea, and look out for rare wildlife, including the elusive natterjack toad. Walk south to Scratby and Newport, or north, to Horsey Gap and Sea Palling, and look out for the seals, which can often be seen resting on the shore or bobbing in the sea. On the doorstep of your holiday cottage in Winterton-on-Sea, you will find a variety of independent businesses, including a small grocery, an art gallery, and a crafts shop. The Fisherman’s Return is a charming pub serving Norfolk ale and good food. The bustling resort of Great Yarmouth is a short drive southward, and the graceful city of Norwich is a scenic drive to the east. The meandering waterways and peaceful countryside of the Norfolk Broads are close enough for day trips.
