The warm glow of a seaside sunset spills through the windows, and you can taste the salt air drifting in from The Wash — this is proper North Norfolk coast country, where the cliffs turn amber at dusk and the beach stretches wide and flat toward the horizon.

The Sunset Inn offers both traditional guest house rooms and a camping pod for those who fancy sleeping outdoors with a bit more shelter, making it a flexible choice for couples after a coastal break or small families testing the camping waters. Hunstanton's the only East Anglian resort where the sun sets over the sea, and you're right in the thick of it here — rock pools, striped cliffs, and miles of sand within easy reach. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing one along.

It's an inn at heart, so expect more home comforts than wild camping vibes — think proper beds, a roof over your head, and likely a decent pint downstairs. Campfires need checking on arrival, and being open year-round means you can chase those winter sunsets or dodge the August crowds. A straightforward, warmish base for exploring this quietly beautiful stretch of coast.
