About this property

Large Stylish Victorian Villa - steps from the beach and town facilities

Oakleigh is a large Victorian villa in a quiet residential area just 200m from the beach and a short walk from children's play park and town centre facilities. With 3 reception rooms and 6 bedrooms, the house was designed for entertaining and for taking in the sea air from the outset. Many of its original Victorian features have been retained and are now complimented with interior furnishings that blend coastal chic with a boutique style.

Outside there is a very private garden with space for alfresco dining and a second elevated space for relaxing on all-weather rattan furniture.

From the side entrance hall there are doors to the recently refurbished Lounge (2024), Games room, WC and Dining room. The Dining room has a wood-burner and table which extends to seat 10 people. The kitchen is fully equipped including oyster shuck, mussel steamer and plenty of corkscrews. A second staircase leads to what would have originally been the servants rooms. On the first floor there are 2 double bedrooms, two single bedrooms and a bathroom with shower. The second floor has 2 double bedrooms, and large shower room and another separate WC.

Set up as a home from home, guests are welcome to use all the facilities including laundry, barbeque, buckets & spades for beach, etc.

Space for 2 cars and plenty of street parking on Lincoln Square.

Hunstanton has a great deal to offer as a resort town with its beaches, fish and chips, ice cream and sea views. Its cliffs are a geological marvel and from here an easy walk to Old Hunstanton sees the landscape transform into sand dunes and big skys. Further afield the coast road travels to Holme-by- the-sea, Thornham, Titchwell, Brancaster; all designated areas of outstanding natural beauty. Fresh fish is available in Thornham and Brancaster Staithe. Travelling 5 miles inland from here, the shopping of Burnham Market may prove irresistible. Holkham and Wells have great walks and beaches to explore. The Royal Summer Estate of Sandringham is well worth visiting.

Some of our favourite places to eat include - White Horse (Brancaster), The Crown or The Globe (Wells), Victoria (Holkham), Orange Tree (Thornham), Hoste Arms (Burnham Market), The Duck Inn (Stanhoe), Rose and Crown (Snettisham), The Lodge (Old Hunstanton). This area of North Norfolk has something to offer throughout the year.

House was lovely and recently decorated. The 2 single bedrooms are only suitable for children and are connected but the other 4 bedrooms are a good size with lovely comfy beds.It is a very short walk into town where there are quite a lot of coffee shops.

Fantastic home in a perfect location
Everything absolutely flawless. It’s a beautiful house, recently refurbished. Location is wonderful and our host sent perfect instructions. In fact, it was all so perfect that I didn’t have to contact the host at all. Highly recommended. The incredibly comfortable beds were a real highlight

Brilliant house
This is a great house to stay in. The location is within an easy walk to the shops and seafront. The rooms are all comfortable with plenty of room for a full range of ages with plenty of space to escape if needed. The kitchen is the best equipped that we have seen in all the years we have hired houses. Marion is a great host and easy to communicate with if needed. When we return to Hunstanton this will be our first pick for sure.

Perfect!
We had a wonderful stay at Marion’s house. The property is lovely. Very clean, plenty of space, comfortable, well equipped and any correspondence with Marion was quickly responded to. The house is a few minutes walk from the beach, shops, arcade with the funfair a little further along the promenade. All in all, a beautiful house and a wonderful week.

Lovely house & stay was great. Just one little snag the bins were overflowing outside recycling as bins are not collected until every 2 weeks. We did let the owner know.

Great Family Holiday
This property was perfect. We are a family group covering toddlers, teenagers, grand parents and great grandparents! The property was spotlessly clean when we arrived, and the facilities are made for big groups. Very convenient for local town, shops, beach and amusements. We would definitely love to return.

About the host

Hosted by Marion

Host profile image
We live around an hour from Hunstanton and enjoy being able to spend days walking and socialising in our home from home. We travel extensively and have rented properties around Europe through Vrbo so understand what is needed from a home rental.

Why they chose this property

Oakleigh is our family holiday home primarily and we have enjoyed exploring the North Norfolk coast since 2009. We love the architecture and the access we have to the beach and resort facilities, as well as the wonderful beaches, villages, pubs and restaurants along the rest of the coastal area.

What makes this property unique

Oakleigh is in a quiet residential area and yet we have sea views from the top floor and the space to entertain in a very relaxing and informal environment. Along with the beach and great walks only a short distance away.
