Harbour/Beach
A picturesque fishing and sailing harbour with multiple winding tidal creeks and salt marshes stretching from the harbour side and leading to sand dunes: the biggest known as Gun Hill. From Burnham Overy Staithe you can take a scenic walk to Gun Hill which takes about half an hour. In the summer there is lovely wildlife to be spotted including wading birds and beautiful butterflies. A gap in the dunes, locally known as Burnham Harbour, opens up and there are miles of golden sandy beaches stretching out towards Holkham and Wells to be admired. During the summer there is a ferry out to the nature reserve of Scolt Head Island which is a lovely trip for bird watchers and seal spotters.
Village
An area of outstanding natural beauty, the village is a large hamlet and a great destination for your stay. The views across the harbour are lovely whatever time of year you decide to visit. There is a great little gastro pub in the centre of the village called The Hero (in honour of Admiral Lord Nelson) which has a great menu of tasty dishes. Also, in the centre of the village there is a large playing field with hard tennis courts and basketball area and a children’s playground. Just outside the village is the noticeable landmark of the stunning six-storey Burnham Overy Windmill and neighbouring watermill, although neither are open to the public, they stand proud on the edge of the village, a beautiful sight when the sun catches the sails against Norfolk's big blue skies. In June Burnham Overy Staithe hosts the popular Norfolk Superhero Challenge, a quadraphonic event where teams of 2 work together to swim, kayak, cycle and run across the beaches and through the creeks. A lovely charity event to spectate. To pop to one of the other coastal villages you can catch the Coasthopper Bus which runs along the coast through many of the delightful villages and seaside towns - a great green way to explore the coast and without the worry of where to park!
History
Part of Burnham Overy was the original port for The Burnhams and set on the river Burn. Trading ships once reached the village by the river until the end of the Middle Ages when the river silted up and along with it the commercial trade. Until the end of the First World War the trading ships used the Staithe. This made a distinction between the two villages Burnham Overy Town and Burnham Overy Staithe that exist a mile apart from one another today. The most notable resident of Burnham Overy Staithe is Richard Woodget who resided at one of our cottages Flagstaff East/West and was the captain of the Cutty Sark. Horatio, Admiral Lord Nelson according to letters learned to row and sail a dinghy at Burnham Overy Staithe at the age of 10 just two years before joining the Navy.
Visit
A great central location on the north Norfolk Coast right on the coastal path ideal for popping on your walking books and walking for about 30 minutes to reach the glorious wide open beach. If you are looking for family days out there are the beaches of Wells and Brancaster where you can park nearby and reach the beaches within a few steps.

A relaxing comfortable property. We love Pangur's Piece for its location and garden and the happy family memories from staying there over the past 15 years or so in beautiful Burnham Overy Staithe.
A delightful, comfortable and well positioned property with a good sized, dog secure garden. We really enjoyed staying here.
We had an enjoyable stay at Pangur's Piece. The house, on arrival, was warm and welcoming.Kitchen was well equipped and beds comfortable.The garden was a bonus when the sun shone.Property thoroughly recommended. Hearing a cuckoo early one morning. Walking around the staithe.
A wonderful property, spotless, well appointed and very well looked after. One incredibly minor point, it's quite easy for a dog to get into gardens either side, but that is as much our issue than the property. Other than that, just perfect in every way. Thanks for having us!
We love Pangur’s Piece and have stayed there many times. Walking down to the creek and walking to Holkham beach.
This was the perfect place for our Christmas stay, thank you! We had our toddler with us and she loved having the freedom to walk around downstairs. A lovely, well equipped kitchen to cook in and such a cosy lounge to get the fire going and settle down for a relaxing evening. We didn’t get to the games but we did notice them in the cupboard. The cottage is in a fantastic location, we made it to the beach four days in a row and also had a lovely meal at The Hero on Christmas Eve. Thank you so much for the Christmas decorating, it added such a special touch.
best house ever, we all love it. and love Burnham OveryStaithe as well. nothing better for a family holiday with the big skies and countless walks and places to visit.
Wonderful stay at a beautiful place.
We chose Pangur's for our annual family holiday, as we liked the look of the separate living spaces. It was perfect for us!
The doggies loved the garden and the location, so close to the harbour and walks along the bund.
It was very well equipped and has a lovely charm that makes it so cosy.
Can't wait to come back next year!
As a family of four we thoroughly enjoyed staying at Pangur's Piece and didn't want to leave. It is such a well-designed and decorated, spacious and comfortable house - it was ideal for us! We enjoyed close proximity to the playing fields, the creake, The Hero pub, Holkham beach and love this part of North Norfolk. Easy access to the Holkham beach to swim in the sea and playing fields. It was easy for children to regularly play football, basketball and tennis.
Lovely light and airy cottage with a large enclosed safe garden for children and dogs. Perfect location, just across the road from small harbour and costal walks and down the road from a great pub The Hero.
It's a lovely cottage and always a pleasure to stay there.
Lovely cottage, a great location. Amazing weather and sitting outside the cottage is perfect.
We are always so happy here. Everything works and the beds, pillows, duvets etc are the best ever.
Great HW, great fridge and deep freeze and great TV. Everything you need in the prettiest of places in N. Norfolk!

It was better than we expected. It was roomy and had an excellent garden. I knew the position was fabulous anyway. Everything was comfortable, the lounge cosy with lovely thick curtains to keep out the sea winds and the bedrooms comfy too! The kitchen was pretty well equipped and a great communal space. The dogs appreciated the lobby space. It had a very homely feel -easy to holiday in. A great week in a lovely cottage, thank you.
It was really pretty and very close to the quay and the garden was larger than expected. Very good quality and well stocked kitchen too. We liked the location and layout especially the kitchen dining room. The garden was lovely too.
We love this cottage and hope to return soon!
It was perfect balance of practical (for a family), modern and tastefully decorated. I loved how everything had been thought about and provided. Basically 4.9 stars! We loved it here and would definitely stay again.

A charming cottage that is tastefully decorated with comfortable furniture. Plenty of space downstairs to accommodate dogs and they approved of the underfloor heating! The cottage is well positioned for a walk out on the coastal path to a beautiful beach. The coastal bus stop and Hero pub also a very short walk away. Parking outside the cottage was always possible.

Electric Vehicle charging
Cars may only be charged if there is an EV charging point fitted at the property. The cost of electricity is NOT included in the rental price and Sowerbys Holiday Cottages must be notified if the charger is used and an additional surcharge will be made. Due to insurance purposes, guests must never charge their car using a standard outdoor plug or an extension cable linking to a domestic plug.
