Great stay at Beachside Cottage
Great stay at Beachside Cottage with our dogs. The property is a real home from home with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Undoubtedly the best part is being able to walk out of the back gate and straight onto the dunes. We booked our next stay on the day we left, what more can I say!

Just what we were looking for.
It's a very well looked after and well equipped cottage. Most important to us was the location. Everything we wanted in very easy reach particularly the beach and dunes for walks with our dog. If like us, you want to park the car and forget it till you go home you will really appreciate this property.

Amazing!
We have had a wonderful time. The Cottage is lovely, very comfortable, well equipped and clean. Perfect location near to the beach. The beach is so clean and it was wonderful to see a few Seals bob their heads up at night time in the sea. Our Cockapoo absolutely loved it on the beach too. We have already booked to go back next year. Highly recommend a short trip to Waxham Barns where the Dunes Cafe has relocated, food is fantastic there. The local fish & chip shop in Winterton is lovely too. Winterton-on-sea is amazing and we cannot wait to go back again and stay at the Beachside Cottage as it is so lovely.

Property excellent position ( been before 10yrs ago) lovely enclosed garden. On the surface looks clean but could do with a bit of spring cleaning in places . BBQ is a definite NO. Needs a step stool in kitchen as cupboards quiet high if you are short. Overall its a lovely cottage you won't be disappointed excellent dog friendly place.

Excellent position
Love staying here. This our fourth time. Already booked for later in the year. Only thing that let it down was the overall cleanliness. In the past it has been spotless on arrival. This time not so. Previous renters had not cleaned the garden up of dog poo. Most annoying was cobwebs everywhere. In the corners of all room massive cob webs with big spindly spiders in them. Took me best part of an hour to get rid of them. Hoefully better next time

Love this holiday cottage
The cottage is great. As is it’s location and especially the garden in the summertime.we have stayed here many times. Unfortunately, and not for the first time, the cleanliness lets it down big time. Cobwebs everywhere ! All over front door. In the kitchen. The stairwell. Main bedroom. In all corners of the bathroom. And the UPVC conservatory looks like it not been cleaned for months ! Open any door and window and look at the surround. All black with mould. The owner needs to pay a surprise visit to the house 1/2 hour before new renters move in to see for he self. She would be as horrified as we were. Great holiday home. Very poor cleaner
