Tower house is a large, 5 Star, award winning Victorian family home, situated in Mundesley, a small seaside village with a blue flag sandy beach, on the north east heritage coast of Norfolk. It is the perfect setting for large family gatherings or special occasions, with a fabulous kitchen to gather in and excellent games room and garden to keep the children entertained. The house is tastefully decorated and welcoming, with enough room for the whole party not to get under each others feet!

The house can sleep 18 (max of 14 adults) in 9 individually designed bedrooms (2 are children's bedrooms: pirate themed bedroom with bunk beds and twin room with Alice in Wonderland theme).

Fully equipped for a child friendly holiday we have a games room with air hockey, mini pool table and various games, role play kitchen, lego, dressing up costumes, books, puzzles and toys. Outside there is a great climbing frame, slide, trampoline, table tennis and giant chess. 100 yards away we have the lovely sandy blue flag beach which has won best beach in Britain (trip advisor) and a fabulous village pub within a few minutes walk from the house, overlooking the sea, with a garden and play area for the children.

The village also has an excellent play park and green, crazy golf and the usual seaside ice cream shop and cafes.

Mundesley is perfectly situated on the coast, with short car journeys to larger towns (12 minute drive to Cromer or 10 minutes to North Walsham) and many sights and national trusts within 20/30 minute drive.

The most incredible stay, perfect for families

Stayed for 3 nights to celebrate my 40th birthday. We were a group of 14 ranging from 2 to 66 and we had the most amazing time! The property was so well equipped for the children, they didn't want to go out! Clean, tidy, well decorated and plenty of space that you don't feel like you're under each others feet. The full sky package went down very well as did the karaoke machine! Fab location and great communication from the host leading up to our stay. Wish we'd booked longer! Will definitely be back!

Perfect location

Perfect accommodation for a large mixed age family group. Extremely well equipped. You’ll never run out of crockery or glassware. Seating for the whole family in kitchen, dining room, lounge and garden. Children’s playroom and garden area kept the younger ones entertained and the garage had extensive beach equipment to borrow.

Family get together

The house was just what we wanted. Plenty of bedrooms with beautiful bed linen and plenty of towels. More than enough seating for everyone lounging and dining. Our 5 year old grandson nearly burst with excitement when he saw the playroom. Easy reach to the beach and amusements.

Tower house Mundesley

Very nice and big house; kitchen was well equipped (enough crockery, cutlery, cooking pans..); nice bathrooms and bedrooms. There were 3 generations on our week long stay and there were plenty of things to do for the children (inside and outside). Location is great as it is very close to the beach which was quite empty when we were there.

Storm Babet Weekend

Despite the rain and flooded roads on the way, most of us made it to Mundesley on the Friday night and we had a fabulous time. The house was perfect for our family and met everyone’s needs. It was nice to be able to see the sea from our bedroom windows especially when the sun came out, and walks along the beach were amazing along this stretch of the Norfolk coast. We had a small issue when we arrived but this was swiftly dealt with by the owners and didn’t perturb our stay in anyway. We can highly recommended this beautiful house.

Fabulous holiday home for our family

This wonderful house was every bit a home for our 3 generation family break. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and individual with coordinating bedding and soft furnishings. The children loved the themed bedrooms, and the playroom downstairs was a big hit from the 2 year old to the 12 year old. Bathrooms are modern and luxurious. Quality towels and some toiletries are provided, making it feel like a hotel. We arrived as the temperature dropped but the house was warm quickly and extremely comfortable. The garden play equipment and the beach toys kept everyone happy. There was everything you could possibly need in the huge family kitchen diner. Plenty of seating for all in the two adjoining lounge areas. Tower House is in the perfect spot for family beach fun and coastal walks. Sunday lunch at The Ship Inn was excellent too. We don't hesitate to recommend Tower House.

A fabulous family holiday

We were a multigenerational family of 9 adults and 6 children aged 4 to 11 years The access to the beach was fantastic and the house and garden provided enough for the children to be occupied all week. While they entertained themselves the adults enjoyed socialising in the kitchen The kitchen table was big enough for us all to be seated as did the outside seating. The whole house was well equipped and the only thing that could have enhanced our time would have been the provisions of a few more board games and paper / crayons for the older children on wet days Everyone voted to come again next year

Absolutely fantastic

Our family weekend holiday consisted of adults and children from 2 - 85 years of age. Tower House contained everything we could possibly want. The children played in the garden or in the playroom which meant the adults could relax. The kitchen was well supplied. The bedrooms were extremely comfortable. The garage contained all anyone could require for a day on the beach. The beach is fabulous and a very short walk away. We didn’t use the cars apart from collecting fish and chips from the village chippy which were delicious. We had a drink at the Ship Inn and sat in the garden while the children played. We went to the mini golf which was good fun. Thank you for an amazing holiday.

Well equipped home and very comfortable

We enjoyed stopping at Tower House especially the children as it was well equipped for children, they had so much fun in the playroom and the garden so well equipped. The kitchen was a dream two fridges which we needed and all the equipment just brilliant. Hope to stay there again sometime. Thank you from the Mann family.

Brilliant for a Family Christmas Get Together

As previous reviewers have said, this is is a very large well equipped house and was perfect for our Christmas get together. When we arrived, there was a tree up and lots of Christmas decorations, so we were in holiday mood immediately. The surfers and body boarders in the family were delighted with the proximity of the beach. The cooks were pleased to find the kitchen had everything they needed for festive meals- in particular huge pots for cooking ham and soup. (One very minor gripe not enough tea towels or cloths for mopping up - have told owner but maybe pack a few!) Children (9 months to 12 years) kept happy - most of the time - with all the toys and games. WiFi excellent. TV barely used so can't comment on that - except to say sign of a good holiday!!

Family and Friends Mundesley

Wow. What an amazing property. Literally had everything you might need home from home. House is super comfy, large and really well designed. If you’re a family of adults to kids, it has it all. Location 200ft from the beach. We have spent many of the last years walking the Suffolk coast. Have to say the walk of over 7 miles to Cromer on a warm and sunny October Saturday was spectacular (mostly on the beach). Would highly recommend the house and village.

Beautiful Home

We have just had the most amazing weekend with family at Tower House for a 60th birthday celebration. The house is beautifully decorated. We partly chose this house because it had a large table in the kitchen and a large dining table which could seat all 14 people in our group at the same time. The playroom was a huge hit with the toddler that was with us she particularly loved the dressing up clothes. We were lucky with the weather so we were able to spend time in the garden which, again had a large table and plenty of chairs and a large play area, another hit! A couple of minutes walk to the the beach. Tower House was very well equipped with everything that you could hope for and was like a home away from home. I would certainly recommend and would stay again.

Family Birthday Celebrations

Our family of 10 adults and 6 grandchildren had the most wonderful time at Tower House. The children had a fabulous time playing in the garden and playroom, they loved the themed bedrooms too. The location is great, a very short walk to the beach, a lovely pub on the doorstep serving great food and very generous portions also having a very good play area for the children. We had a day out at Bewilderwood which the children loved. The house is also perfect for family dining with everything you need for cooking. The hosts were really helpful in providing a new BBQ as the existing ones weren’t usable. We hired a hot tub from the recommended supplier which was great fun. Fab holiday thank you Tower House 😁

A perfect family holiday house

What an amazing house! It has all been a wonderful experience for our 3 generational family. The children were so excited to find the playroom and outside play equipment. The dressing up clothes were a great success with the older ones and the youngest just wanted to look in all the boxes and chase the others with a doll's buggy. The swings outside were a favourite along with the trampoline. The beach was so close we could go even in the evening. Body boarding was a super new experience they loved. The adults enjoyed the space both inside and out. The kitchen worked so well. Bedrooms and bathrooms were stylish and spacious. The amazing weather found us relaxing and star gazing at night on the outside seating area. Thank you for an amazing holiday.

The only comment I would make is that the steepish stairs and limited handrail would be a challenge to those with mobility issues

Fantastic holiday in a wonderful property!

Tower House has everything you could want for a fabulous family break. Was immaculately clean throughout and very comfortable. The adults had a relaxing time and the kids loved running about the garden and playing on the play equipment. The beach is so close you can hear the waves breaking on the shore.

70th birthday celebrations

Unfortunately two families could not come due to covid, so four of us rattled around in a big property. However the property is wonderful and we enjoyed the weekend despite not turning out as we'd hoped. Reading was difficult in the bedroom due to low level lighting.

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Mace

I live in London with my husband, 3 sons and daughter. We discovered Norfolk a few years ago when we stayed locally for my husbands 40th birthday and fell in love with the area - its a traditional seaside village! Tower House is the perfect, spacious home for our family to run free and enjoy the fresh air, spend long happy family days on the sandy beach and generally put our feet up and relax!
NOTE: I do have a full time job so I generally respond to queries late in the evening.

Why they chose this property

Perfect location, 100 yards from the sandy beach - you can't beat that view when you walk those few yards and get your first glimpse of the beach and sea, lovely quiet village, great local park (with skate park and (for a small fee) crazy golf) and the house is luxurious and comfortable for our large family to get together for special occasions.

What makes this property unique

We love the fact its only a few hours away and when we arrive there is so much space and lots to entertain the children within the house and locally in the park or on the sandy beach, even in the middle of December! It gives us some great family time and also the chance to slow down from our busy schedules.
