Porch House, Hunstanton, Norfolk
Porch House is a beautiful, spacious and pet-friendly detached Victorian villa with parking - though you might find that you do not need to use your car during your stay! Located in a conservation area in the heart of Hunstanton, this hideaway is only a stone's throw from the beach and all the local amenities that this popular seaside town has to offer.
The villa sleeps six guests in four bedrooms and its ample proportions provide two sitting rooms, furnished to a very high standard, one of which features a study area with desk, ideal for anyone who needs to work as well as play during their time away. There is also a large and well-equipped dining kitchen with table which leads through to additional relaxation space in the sun room. The enclosed garden, accessible through both the sun room and down the steps from the kitchen, is perfect for al fresco dining in the summer months. There is also a ground floor shower room. Upstairs are four beautifully furnished bedrooms, a family bathroom, and separate WC.
This is a fabulous property for families and friends looking to holiday in a traditional seaside resort with many family-friendly options including the popular Sea Life Centre, fun fair and the Wash Monster which is great for seal spotting. A short stroll further along the coast is Old Hunstanton with its beautiful sand dunes and a beach which stretches for miles. The property also provides a wonderful base for nature lovers wishing to explore north Norfolk's fantastic coastline, walks and bird reserves, while golfers will enjoy the superb championship links course at the welcoming Hunstanton Golf Club.
Additional Information: One well-behaved dog welcome (small additional charge). Travel cot, stair gate, and high chair available on request. Please bring your own linen for the travel cot. Hypoallergenic bedding provided.

We had a lovely week at Porch House. The UK weather was unreliable but we managed a couple of days at the beach (Old Hunstanton, Wells and Brancaster were all beautiful and dog friendly) and there was lots to do locally and in Hunstanton with the SeaLife centre and fun fair.
The house was a real home from home and perfect for the 5 of us and our cockapoo. We will be back.

Christmas Vacation
Fantastic location with just a short walk to the town, beach and facilities. The house was lovely with high quality furnishings and equipment. Would definitely stay again. The Christmas decorations were very much appreciated also. Thank you for our lovely stay.
Second visit to the Porch House and just as great as the first. The house is beautifully decorated with a sunny relaxing garden. Home from home, great location to both the town and the dunes of Old Huntstanton.
Just back from a wonderful week in Huntstanton. The house was beautifully furnished with very comfy beds in a very peaceful location but also very close to the town and beach. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to explore the Norfolk coast. Thank you and looking forward to booking for next year.

Lovely House, just need to update the plumbing
Lovely house in good location for kids, only real let down was the poor shower and unusable bath upstairs. Need to improve the hot water in the house as bath time was a real chore !

Wonderful well appointed house
The rule of thumb for holiday rents is whether you would like to live there .. and the answer is yes. Solid , well furnished beautifully decorated house on quiet street . Owners were very helpful , a bit on the expensive side if there are only two paying adults and a young family , but highly recommended .
A very small caveat around upstairs bathroom being suitable for elderly - but there is a shower room downstairs .

Beautiful holiday house
Great place to stay, really comfortable and practical spaces.
It’s a very beautiful house and the only downside was the water pressure which made us laugh more than annoyed us.
We would definitely stay again, we had a lovely stay

Beautiful house in great location
Porch House is in a great location, in a quiet residential road only a few minutes walk from Hunstanton beach and under a 10 minute walk from the shops and the town. It has been decorated and furnished beautifully to a very high standard and the beds are really comfortable. The Kitchen is really well equipped, it was good having 2 sitting rooms as well. Nice little garden.
Our only criticism really would be that the downstairs shower, being electric, has very poor pressure so it took ages to have a shower.

Delightful, well kept house in excellent Hunstanton location
Our mature family of five spent seven lovely days in Porch House in early September 2021, helped by the sunny weather. The house was immaculate on arrival and with a very generous welcome pack. Plenty of room for us all, the bedrooms were clean and nicely decorated, with comfortable beds, and spacious seating in the two reception rooms. It became our home from home immediately.
We enjoyed the delightful walled garden and spent a lot of our time there, and we liked the Weber gas grill so much that we ordered one for delivery on our return home!
Our elderly mother was in a wheelchair and it was a ten minute trip for us all to the centre of town and a few more minutes to the seafront. Mother took a little time getting used to the steps in the house and garden but managed well.
We often went straight down Lower Lincoln Street to the prom in about seven minutes, where there is the delicious and wholesome Salad Bowl cafe, not to be missed; likewise the Northgate Indian restaurant and Chives restaurant in the centre. Supafry fish and chips were very good, but a shame about the sporadic and unreliable opening times. Don't forget the discount coupons in the residence; we forgot ours for Eric's Pizza/Fish n Chips and the Jolly Sailors, twice...!
We met the owner Emma on arrival who was most courteous and obviously runs a quality property with attention to detail.
We'll be back!

Wonderful place to stay in Hunstanton
Great place to stay in Hunstanton. Perfect location. Wonderfully equipped kitchen. Peaceful garden. Spacious and super comfy. We would love to be back there. The owners mention the Victorian plumbing several times in the property guide. It is antiquated. This is an annoyance as the shower is disappointing given everything else in this property is high class.
