AMAZING!!
The location of this cottage is simply the best and offers everything you could need for a get away from it all break! Great size secure garden for our dog to sniff round and the canopy/porch at the back door where we could leave sandy boots was really handy! The gate onto the dunes was just fantastic and is nowhere near a public thoroughfare so we didn’t see a soul all week from the garden or view from the lounge and conservatory! Great for both beech walks or walks along the beautiful grassy dunes if you occasionally want a sandy free dog! We were greeted by a beautiful selection of goodies by our host and had a very comfortable and cosy stay! We will be back for sure! Thank you!

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

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.
