    “Sea Urchin is a delightful place for a holiday with or without children or dog/s.”

    Robert, the host is friendly, helpful and goes to great lengths to ensure you are happy and have everything you need. Comfortable, clean and minutes from the beach which has many access points. Friendly people/neighbours in a quiet unspoilt part of the coast. Our grandchildren loved it too and can't wait to come back again and we definitely will.

About the location

ECCLES-ON-SEA

North Walsham 6 miles; Cromer 14 miles; Norwich 18 miles.

Eccles-on-Sea is a small, quiet unspoiled coastal village on the east Norfolk coast, nestled between Happisburgh and Sea Palling. The beach at Eccles is sandy, with the sea one of the cleanest in Britain, and this spot is ideal for walking the dog as it has no summer restrictions. The village of Happisburgh is 2 miles away, with its red and white candy-striped lighthouse, and Sea Palling, 1.8 miles away, has many facilities, including a Jet Ski centre. The Norfolk Broads are also close by, with Hickling just a few miles away being the largest broadland village, complete with a National Nature Reserve. East Ruston Gardens, 1.5 miles from Eccles-on-Sea, is a must for gardeners, with 18 acres of stunning gardens. The fine city of Norwich is 18 miles away, offering a beautiful Norman cathedral and castle, along with many good shops and restaurants.
