Upon entering Marshgate, it's easy to see why the family has cherished it for decades. Its period charm and inviting atmosphere creates a warm welcome. The peaceful, unchanged village setting has been a constant delight. Nearby, the sandy, uncrowded beaches of Scolt Head Island have been a favourite retreat, while Burnham Market, just a short walk away, has always been a draw-from teenage visits to The Hoste for a pint to fine dining while grandparents entertain the children.
Marshgate's location is perfect for summer holidays in north Norfolk, yet equally delightful in winter, with cozy evenings by the log burner after blustery walks. The multiple living rooms provide ample space for everyone to find their own retreat. Each room, from the lively dining area filled with family laughter to the garden room perfect for evening sundowners, exudes unique character.
The family shares countless fond memories-crabbing, paddling, and boating in Burnham Overy Staithe, and lively games in the spacious front garden. Witnessing the autumn spectacle of winter geese flying overhead has been a cherished tradition, as their children embraced the wholesome joys of this magical location, just as they did.
Burnham Norton is a truly exceptional village where properties seldom enter the market. Amidst coastal areas marked by new developments and changing aesthetics, this unique place, steadfast in its traditions, holds a special charm that the family hopes will endure unchanged for years to come.
BURNHAM NORTON Burnham Norton is a charming village known for its picturesque landscapes, historical landmarks, and serene environments.
The village is home to St. Margaret's Church, known to date back to the 13th century. For those interested in history and medieval architecture, this is a must-visit with its impressive tower and stained glass windows. Alternatively, Burnham Norton Hall is a prominent feature of the village, showcasing classic Georgian architecture. While private, its exterior can be admired during a stroll through the village.
Nature lovers will enjoy exploring the marshes, which are part of the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It's an ideal spot for birdwatching and enjoying peaceful walks. For a beach walk, there is a beautiful shingle beach in Burnham Norton, ideal for a family picnic or simply enjoying the sound of the waves.
The Burnhams, comprising several villages including Burnham Norton, are collectively known for their scenic beauty and traditional Norfolk architecture.

Locally, there are a few charming pubs and tearooms where you can sample traditional Norfolk cuisine and enjoy a pint of local ale. The establishments often reflect the village's relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Just a short walk away, Burnham Market offers boutique shopping, art galleries, and more dining options. It's a lovely place to extend your visit and experience a broader range of amenities.
