  We stayed at 1 The Dell for a week in September.

  The chalet was clean and the kitchen was well equipped - apart from the lack of any oven gloves. The tea towels supplied were very thin meaning it was impossible to get anything out of the oven without getting burnt. The fridge freezer was a good size and efficient. Nice dining table with comfy chairs. The living room was a good size but the sofa was awful. It was L shaped and although the seats were reasonably comfortable, the back was awful. It was very low, giving no support above the shoulders and the cushions were dreadful. We added pillows from the beds for extra comfort. It is also quite small - there were only 3 adults in our party and we feel if there had been four of us we would not have been able to fit on the sofa. There was another chair but this was horrible - uncomfortable and the legs were so wobbly we didn't risk sitting in it. The bathroom had a constant smell in it and the shower was awful. Absolutely no power and the shower head looked like it had never been cleaned or de-scaled. The bedrooms were very small but ok. Furniture was fine and our adult daughter was quite happy in the twin room. This may not have been the case if there were two adults in there though as it was tiny. The double bed was not great - a hard wooden frame made it uncomfortable to sit up in and the bottom of the bed has wooden ends that stick up. There is very little space to get round the bottom of the bed and we had only been in the chalet 10 minutes when my husband hit his knee on it causing bleeding and swelling - not a great start! The mattress was ok but not the best - we kept rolling into the middle. So there were negatives which would probably prevent us going there again, but it could be so nice if these were addressed. The decor of the chalet was lovely - we liked the beach theme. The location is perfect, Mundesley is a lovely village and to be so close to the beach was great. We did enjoy our holiday but the bed, shower and sofa definitely need addressing.

  South Lodge was nicely furnished, comfortable and well equiped, with a pretty garden and garden room. We enjoyed staying there but the Lodge is situated on a busy road junction and noisy traffic is constant for almost 24hrs a day! Windows cannot be left open at night for fresh air and siting in the lovely garden is spoiled by the noise. Also, the access point is close to the junction and dangerous. We were almost rammed several times. This feature of the property is not mentioned in the advertising material. The property information literature instructs visitors to leave by 9am so, to avoid an early morning rush, we decided to leave the day before. Whilst leaving, we received a text from you advising that we should leave by 10am !!!!!!

  This is the nicest holiday cottage we have ever stayed in - it is beautiful with an amazing garden. The owners have thought of everything and there is nothing you will need that you will not find. Also in an ideal location with a woodland walk, a park and the beach all within walking distance. A real touch of luxury with a warm homely feel and everything there is of really good quality ( fixtures and fittings, soft furnishings and furniture etc ) A really thoughtful welcome pack including treats for the dog was a nice find on arrival too. We will definitely return and will recommend to all our friends/ family Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

  Clean, bright and warm accommodation which suited us perfectly- 4 adults and 2 dogs.

  The welcome basket was appreciated, as was the friendly communication with Mark. The garden was fully enclosed for our 4 legged friends- the only problem was that because the garden was all grass it started to get muddy near the door with them running over the same patch constantly and there was nowhere outside to clean off their paws and so some mud and cut grass was brought into the property although we tried to keep it to a minimum. (we did have a westie with green feet for a couple of days). Squirrel Lodge is in a good location for visiting The Broads and local dog-friendly beaches- Happisburgh being our favourite. Thanks again.

  Obviously a very recent conversion of outbuildings.

  Upside is that it's clean, fresh and well presented. Small downside is that there will be a couple of detail things still to do. Like no shelves or holders anywhere around bathroom sinks (where do you put your soap or toothpaste whilst using?) needs extractor fan or window in second bathroom. Needs some softer lighting (lamps) in living area. Just little things but not quite 10/10 yet. It's also a bit eccentric in its conversion from outbuildings. A long thin open-plan living area is a bit of a "corridor, and the exterior still looks like a wooden outbuilding. It's still comfortable, easy living accommodation none the less.
