Picarini, Burnham Overy Staithe, Norfolk

Picarini is a laid back, stylish cottage right in the centre of one of North Norfolk's prettiest coastal villages Burnham Overy Staithe. With sea views from the master bedroom this mid terrace cottage is just a two-minute walk to the harbour where you can swim, fish and paddle.

Tucked away in the heart of this quintessential North Norfolk village and next door to a renowned gastro pub/restaurant, this stylish cottage is perfect for a gathering, whether you are a group of friends or a family wanting a stylish pad, just a short walk to the harbour where you can enjoy paddling, swimming, sailing, kayaking or paddle boarding from. And it's only a short sail/boat ride (or long walk at low tide) to the sublimely isolated and beautiful Scolt Head Island where you really feel like you have been transported to a desert island!

With its pared-back mix of new and old, this modern cottage is the perfect base for a fabulous coastal holiday. It boasts fantastic sea views from the top floor and has been built in traditional brick and flint style with pantile roof.

The interiors at Picarini are classy and comfortable. The property has been thoughtfully designed and offers accommodation over three floors. With a large open plan living/dining/kitchen area with french doors leading to the garden, you will have fun cooking breakfast before heading out for a busy day exploring the area or a day on the beach. The ground floor accommodation also boasts underfloor heating and there are two living spaces, with one flat screen television (perfect when you just want to chill out).

Looking for inspiration for supper? Then why not pick up some locally caught fish, local samphire or asparagus and create a fabulous meal. And if you don't want to cook and you're looking for excellent food, then head right next door to The Hero public house, one of Norfolk's finest gastro pubs which provides a wealth of options to suit every culinary style and taste.

The outside space to the rear of the cottage is south facing so great for long summer nights with outside garden furniture and plenty of space to hang wet suits and store paddleboards after a late-night paddle.

Climb the stairs to bed and you will discover three beautifully appointed bedrooms with comfy mattresses, soft pillows and good quality linens, so sleeping will come easy. There are two bathrooms (one on the first floor and one on the second floor) and a cloakroom on the ground floor.

Nestled around a private car park/courtyard, there is designated parking for one or two vehicles, although you should always be able to find more space if you need to.

There are two hard tennis courts a few minutes' walk away, which are available to hire along with a well-equipped children's play ground and playing fields.

Please note: Picarini is one of three pretty cottages which make up the Hero Cottages (sleeping 20 in all (Sea Pie (8), Kitty Coot (6), Picarini (6)). You may consider booking all three and dining at The Hero gastro pub next door for social suppers and gatherings. All three cottages share a laid back, relaxing, nautical theme.
