    It was everything that we needed. Quiet location near lovely beach walks. Very clean. As it had snowed the day before arrival the host cleared what they could, informed us that the road was slippery and left the outside light on for us, which we...

Scratby beach is a good-sized stretch of sand and shingle set along low sandy cliffs. It is popular for fishing and swimming although there is no lifeguard. During the winter months there can be quite good waves here making it popular with surfers. The beach is also an ideal place for walkers as it stretches along the coast for many miles in either direction. Dogs are allowed on the beach all year round. To the south, visitors can walk to the town of Caister-On-Sea or even to Great Yarmouth, whilst to the north you can walk to Hemsby Beach, and on to Winterton Dunes National Nature Reserve. The village of Scratby has a local shop, post office and gift shop. During the summer months there is also a variety of entertainment. The Pink Palace Amusements are situated near the beach where you can tuck into some delicious donuts or ice cream. Other local eateries found in the village include pubs, takeaways, a tearoom and a bakery all within a short walk from The Heathers. From picturesque coastal paths, endless flowing water making up the Norfolk Broads and a historic city centre, Norfolk has something for all the family to enjoy!
