This modern, spacious corner house in Pakefield enjoys a quiet position with fantastic views of the sea and the medieval church opposite. There's nothing quite like sitting on the bench in the front garden or the sunlounge inside with the warmth of the sun on your face, watching the world go by. And when it's time for a change of scenery, the sand and pebble beach in front is only a few steps away. Pakefield is a quiet village just south of Lowestoft, a traditional sea side resort, with wide, sandy award winning beaches. As you stroll along the sea promenade lined with colourful beach huts, you'll soon reach these. Or to get away from it all, follow the beach in the opposite direction along the crumbling cliffs.
You'll find some great pubs. beach cafes and all the amenities you need within walking distance of the house, so there's no need for a car if you fancy a refreshing break by the sea. You could even take are boat tour from Lowestoft Harbour to see the seals at Scroby Sands or head inland towards the Broads. If you do want to explore further afield, there is Southwold with its famous pier, lighthouse and the Adnams Brewery where you can book a tour. Or in the summer, crabbing (i.e. catching crabs with a crabbing line) is a popular all age activity in the harbour at Walberswick, always a must for our children when holidaying here. For family days out you can head to Southwold Maize Maze, Pleasurewood Hills themepark or Africa Alive (zoo). Birdwatchers will love the RSPB Minsmere Nature Reserve and Dunwich Heath (National Trust) is great for walks all year round. Heading inland, the Somerleyton Estate with its lovely gardens is well worth a visit as are the old market towns of Beccles and Bungay and the city of Norwich with its impressive medieval Cathedral.
The house is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay and the conveniences of modern life such as fast Fibre Broadband and a Smart TV in the lounge. There are plenty of games, puzzles and books, as well as a dolls' house for the little ones!
The house is popular for inter-generational get-togethers, as it has a downstairs bedroom and bathroom, which is ideal for those who find it harder to manage stairs.
