Accommodation
1 master suite, (double bedroom, dressing room, ensuite shower room), 1 double bedroom, 1 twin bedroom. Family bathroom with separate shower cubicle. Sitting room, kitchen/dining room, utility room, cloakroom with WC. Garden and parking.

For warmer days the fully enclosed, mostly lawned garden offers a patio area and barbeque. For additional ease of use double doors open onto the garden from both the sitting room and the kitchen. The kitchen itself is lovely. The finish of the hand built units is high anyway but the owners have equipped it thoughtfully to encompass the needs of most cooks. ( if you want to! - the White Horse at the Staithe is down the road and this part of the world abounds with culinary excitement) There is a central island unit with a breakfast bar and stools. All the rooms are of a good size and the house as a whole has a light, clean and airy feel.
One interesting locational feature of Alexander House is the footpath discreetly hidden behind a hedge located on the opposite side of the parking area which takes you directly to the coastal path, a 5 – 10 min walk.
The standard of Alexander House is just so good – highly recommended for a memorable holiday.

The miles of sandy beach stretching as far as the eye can see, bordered by sand dunes and mere yards from the car park is as good as it gets. Crowded? Only ever on sunny August weekends and Bank Holidays (see photo) Turn left and a 10 minute walk brings you to where the seals, just inland, bask on the marsh and where children can dangle bits of bacon to catch crabs in the creeks. The idle needn't walk anywhere beyond where they choose to dump their picnics and pitch camp. Turn right and walk away from where many people bunch and you will have swathes of deserted sand for your cricket or sandcastles. The very tidal sea leaves lagoons where children can safely splash, and at low tide the ship wreck is visible with its barnacle covered bilges and superstructure used for wartime target practise. But don't dally. The tide turns quickly and loiterers can find themselves wading back through the inrushing sea.
If you stay in the village you can expect to be woken by the chatter of skeins of geese flying overhead to their inland pastures, returning to the marshes again at dusk.
There are pubs, excellent restaurants in many of the local villages including a popular pizza place, and of course the Royal West Norfolk Golf Club, recently elevated to the ...
