  Just had a fabulous week in Bungalow 14!

  The bungalow was perfect for my elderly parents, and having 3 bedrooms meant our daughter could also spend a few days with us and her grandparents too. The bungalow was spotlessly clean and so warm and cosy. There was everything we could possibly need there (oh apart from a corkscrew, but the local pub saved the day and lent us one till we could pick one up!) And the sea views………we really couldn’t be closer to the sea! The staff around site were all lovely and friendly. The swimming pool looks fantastic although we never got around to using it. Fantastic breakfast in Coast bar before leaving, and enjoyed a couple of eves in the bar during the week. Perfectly situated for local supermarkets if self catering. The bus stopped outside the site heading both up towards Great Yarmouth and beyond and down to Lowestoft, and was frequent and ran late into the evening. We enjoyed a lovely evening at the small retro cinema in Lowestoft, and a meal out at the White Horse pub across the road. We’ve visited some beautiful towns, and managed a couple of really lovely walks at Beccles, and a stunning walk from Southwold and around Walberswick, over the marshes and along the beach. The hosts were excellent with communication and sent a very comprehensive guide to the bungalow and the area before we arrived. We would love to return again another time, there’s so much more of the area to explore, I’m sure we will be back again. The Harrison family

  We loved our stay at Stable Cottage.

  So much so, that we had already booked for next year a few days in. The horses are practically in the back garden which the children absolutely loved! The swimming pool is a lovely addition too! The children spent many hours playing and we accidentally slept in most mornings because it was just so quiet and peaceful! Our only gripe with the property was that it wasn’t very clean. We had to wash nearly all of the kitchen equipment before we used it as it all had bits of food on it. I think this is possibly more to do with the last people who stayed to be honest, but the house could definitely do with being cleaned a little better in between stays. From our point of view there are only a few small things that could have made it better: - A better clean between stays - Safety covers on the plug sockets - Some sort of umbrella to go over the table outside. We were blessed with some lovely weather but didn’t eat outside as the table had no shade. - An investment into new kitchen equipment. We love to cook and there wasn’t a huge amount of equipment, the items that were there were quite old. Some non stick pans and baking trays would be fab! None of these things would have stopped us staying again, but would definitely make it a little better! We look forward to staying again next year!!

  Wonderful location and should have been a peaceful week.

  Unfortunately the cottage had a significant problem with the plumbing causing ‘water hammer’. This meant that when either toilet was flushed and the bath and shower used, there was a loud and constant noise throughout the cottage from the kitchen taps which could only be remedied by fiddling with the taps. This was very inconvenient during the day. At night we adopted a ‘no flush’ policy, which was really not ideal as we were sharing with friends. Even then, on two nights the water hammer started seemingly spontaneously. On one of the nights it happened five times, meaning a very disturbed night up and down stairs to kitchen to get rid of noise. Rosemary was aware of the problem and had had a plumber in before our occupation to try to remedy the problem to no avail. We do feel that some recompense for this exceptional inconvenience should be forthcoming.

  Bungalow 14 was clean and comfortable and equipped with all we needed for our stay.

  It was listed as having sea views… indeed it does… but through a chain link fence with no access to any beach within walking distance for my youngest grandson. My hope had been for a child friendly holiday beside the sea! The small swimming pool was great for the children but access to that was limited to between 11am and 4pm so not suitable for a swim before or after a day out. Although the bungalow was “dog friendly “ there was nowhere nearby where a dog could run off lead. The cooker controls had worn off so we made an educated guess when using it… luckily it worked! I feel my comments are more regarding the property description/ geography of the area than anything the owners could change ( other than cooker controls) …. Not a fan of clubhouse bars/ Gyms/ arcades so would choose somewhere else next time!

  It was a very nice little bungalow, deffo preferred it to staying in a chalet/static.

  The area is nice and peaceful and all the locals (inc those on site) seem very friendly and approachable. The bungalow Is beachfront as such but it’s on top of a cliff so don’t expect to walk out the front door and walk straight onto the beach, which was disappointing at first, but not the end of the world as gorleston beach is a short car journey up the road and is nice, Yarmouth seafront only slightly further on too so wasn’t the end of the world. It’s ideally placed with tesco, co op, also and other various smaller shops within a couple of miles for a big shop. Couple of things to note: Well there’s a lot of bugs and insects encountered when sitting on the decking I’m sure the spiders can fly around here
