Situated on the doorstep are many privately owned holiday parks, some with clubhouses offering seasonal entertainment and leisure amenities, which encourage use of their on-site facilities.

The area is a paradise for nature lovers with fabulous walks and trails to explore, and great cycling opportunities around the quiet lanes.

We had a lovely week at California Halt.

We had a lovely week at California Halt. The weather was great, so we made full use of the beach up the road. The location of the cottage was ideal and it was very clean. The owners had thought of every detail to make sure we had everything we needed.

Recently stayed here for a few nights.

Recently stayed here for a few nights. Place was spotless and everything you needed/wanted was to hand. Lovely welcome basket on arrival. Location is fantastic beach only short walk away and only a short drive away fromGreat Yarmouth and hemsby so plenty of places near by. Shops not far away either short walk. They do have strange opening and closing times. But overall the bungalow is a great place, great location. Would definitely come back again

This was an absolutely charming holiday home! Everything had so much thought and attention!The toiletries were lovely, the welcome pack really was most welcome!Cosy blankets in the sitting-room to snuggle under, (the granddaughters were impressed by the electric reclining chair!)A great selection of dads, games and books.Then the beach was so close - even though it was soo cold, being mid-February, it would be great innthe summer.We would recommend this to anyone!

Arguably the best holiday accommodation I have ever stayed in.

Arguably the best holiday accommodation I have ever stayed in. Extremely clean and cosy with everything you could ever need included. From Toiletries, towels linen to a very generous welcome basket of food/snacks on arrival.Great location also. A beach less than 10mins walk away and only a small drive to the nearest supermarket. I can't recommend California Halt highly enough.
