Violet is a unique converted old boat which has been transformed into a contemporary beach house, perfect for two couples or a family, ideally situated close to the sand dunes leading onto Heacham's South Beach. This lovely original boat has a newly built decked balcony with stunning views overlooking the river and open countryside at the back, with direct access onto the sand dunes from the front. It has been completely refurbished inside with a new kitchen, shower room, separate cloakroom and three well-presented bedrooms, being thoughtfully furnished and equipped to provide the ideal holiday home. After long days on the beach there's a light, contemporary dining/sitting area room with glazed doors opening onto the balcony with river views. This is a great place to stay throughout the year as it's toasty warm in the winter with gas central heating and perfect for exploring the Norfolk coastline. The quiet beach is safe for swimming and wind-surfing, and perfect for bird enthusiasts being close to the RSPB Reserve at Snettisham.
