Sandy Paws

Gorleston-on-Sea draws families and water-sports enthusiasts to its award-winning beach and promenade, where a designated dog walking area sits alongside cafés and restaurants. Sandy Paws stands less than a mile inland, offering a base for exploring the coast or the quieter side of Norfolk. The property is yours alone, with two bedrooms sleeping four guests and a second bathroom, plus the essentials—heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi—included in the price.

Downstairs holds a living room with woodburner and smart TV, a kitchen fitted with electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and washer-dryer, and a shower room. Upstairs, one bedroom has a double bed and its own ensuite; the other contains zip-and-link single beds. An enclosed back garden with patio and barbecue provides outdoor space, and there is on-road parking. No smoking indoors. Sandy Paws welcomes one pet free of charge, and includes a welcome pack with doggy extras and initial logs for the fire.

Gorleston's town centre is a 20-minute walk away for shops and pubs, while Great Yarmouth's seafront attractions—pier, amusements, crazy golf—lie nearby. Norwich, with its medieval castle and cathedral, is 35 minutes by car. The Norfolk Broads and Suffolk's coastal villages including Southwold and Aldeburgh are within reach for day trips.
