  Had an amazing break away at the chalet 150 at winterton on sea (couple with a dog).

  Comfy bed and quiet and peaceful location with spacious lounge area/dining. Loved the patio doors on front and back for dining in the morning sun at breakfast time or having a drink or two on the back in the evening sun. Everything you need is in the chalet. 10 min coastal walk to beach and 10 minute walk to local village. Local village of Winterton really lovely and calm and chilled out but with enough going in if you want something eg shop, chip shop, pub and tea room. Chip shop was so yummy but worth noting it’s cooked fresh to order so you may have a little wait but you can have a nice walk round the church or gardens or walk to the beach and back to build up an appetite. Poppy’s tearoom lovely garden round the back highly recommend for breakfast/brunch or tea and cake, also dog friendly. Fisherman’s arms pub lovely too beer garden and really modern inside nice food and dog friendly. 20 min walk from chalet to local town of Hemsby recommend a trip to the Lacton arms pub nice food and nice beer garden and dog friendly. Hemsby worth a visit for doughnuts and ice creams or pizza from pizza&kebab at the top of town also there’s a nice beach boutique store sells lovely clothes but definitely preferred winterton on sea beach and chalet site as it’s very beautiful, peaceful, idyllic and best of all very relaxing. Also the local residents here at the chalets are super friendly and welcoming. Our dog made lots of dog friends too! He loved it, he was so cosy in the chalet as well. He especially loved the beach and coastal walks and playing in the sun and the long stretch of grass lawn with sea views near the chalets but the beach definitely his favourite just amazing winterton on sea beach as it stretches out for miles and miles and it’s so peaceful. The sand is lovely and soft and warm and the sea has beautiful waves, the dunes are great too, we were lucky enough to see a seal in the sea one of the days too. We enjoyed a 10 min drive from the chalet to a local village called Horsey, had an amazing breakfast at Poppylands tea room world war 2 inspired amazing place really gorgeous and lovely food and cake and cute gift shop. Also we were so thrilled to walk to horsey gap beach and got to see loads of seals swimming in the sea there! Even a little pup on the shore! Well worth a visit, only a short walk from tea rooms. 7 mile drive to Great Yarmouth from the chalet - perfect for families who want a Blackpool style/type holiday or an enjoyable place for people like us who just wanted a nice mooch round the shops and a walk and food near the beach. Great Yarmouth also has a big Tesco if you need supplies, we got some bbq food one night and had it on winterton beach which was awesome! ‘The lion pub’ on the way to Horsey is well worth a visit as well lovely meal and really lovely couple who own it, made a real fuss of our dog, dog biscuits and everything. I cannot recommend this place enough, it’s just perfect! The location is brilliant, you don’t need to use your car at all really unless you want to visit other places, but the chalet is perfect for what you need and the beach and everything is just gorgeous! Worth noting that the chalet isn’t detached but still a quiet location not overlooked from the front but is more communal on the back. I would highly recommend this hidden gem! Thank you for an amazing stay Jill. Kira & Jack & Henry the dog x

  Some of the mattresses are very old and dirty.

  They have clean mattress protectors on but, when stripping the beds at the end, the protectors came away too revealing very old mattresses. I didn't check all of them just the two I stripped. In May a review mentioned the stained settee. The owners answer was to cover up with what looked like quilted throws off the beds. They didn't fit well and were constantly slipping off the settee. The coffee table in the lounge which was originally black had chips of white all over it so it never looked clean. The vacuum cleaner didn't pick anything up. When I checked the brushes they were completely clogged with dirt, hair and fluff. It would have been a long job to breathe life back into it. I only hope the cleaners were using their own equipment.The owner needs to check that equipment is in a usable state. The wash basins in the bathrooms were very small and, with a glass shelf above, impossible to get your face over. I think the three star rating should really be 2 star. My family all agreed it felt like student digs. On the plus side the location is excellent. There was plenty of space for the 6 young children to run around. The kitchen was well equipped for a large group. You get parking for 2 cars for the week for free and extra parking permits are available for £5 for each 24hrs from the owner but you are not guaranteed a parking spot especially at the weekends. However, Sainsbury's is a 10 minute walk away and my son parked there for the week for £21. Finally be aware that because of Covid you can't get in the property until 5pm and you have to vacate at 9am. The cleaners arrived at 9.02am. These were not the times I was given when I made the booking earlier and it was quite a rush to get 9 adults and 6 children breakfasted, packed, beds stripped etc. and out by 9am on leaving day.

  Lovely cottage and gardens .

  Just a couple of negative things for us. 1. Not having the channels on the T.V , we found having to download the app for each channel was very inconvenient and No.2 the shower was in a very strange position, like right in the corner which made us feel that we could not shower properly and the shower curtain was very annoying but this is personal to us as we are used to a glass screen . Oh and no tea towel for the kitchen, ee did not bring one as it said towels were supplied. And not having control with the heating. It was very cold a few nights we was there , my husband tried to go by the instructions in the book to boost the heating but to no avail . The cottage is in a ideal position for using as a base to go off to other coastal areas I.e Caister, Cromer, Yarmouth. All in all we had a good holiday .

  We had a lovely stay in Clover court.

  The rooms were clean and the house well equipped. There was plenty of space for the 16 of us to enjoy each other’s company but also have room to retreat! The kitchen is large and well equipped and each of the rooms having their own en suite meant no queuing for the bathroom The living area is spacious and allowed us room to sit and read or watch TV and the large dining table was ideal for family meals The beach was within walking distance and dog friendly and we enjoyed swimming in the sea. The only downside was the previous occupants had taken the wifi router! The owner did his very best to replace this and get it working. It did, unfortunately mean we had to spend extra on wifi cloud connection for the first 4 days as myself, and 3 other family members had unavoidable work meetings whilst away.

  We had a five night stay at 3 The Cottages Hemsby.

  This is one of the best cottages we have stayed in. The cottage is immaculately clean and has everything you could need. Very comfortable beds, good quality towels provided. The enclosed garden was lovely to sit in and was ideal for our Labrador. We will definitely return to this property again for a future break, the location is excellent for exploring the coast, with a pub across the road, which sells very nice food and is dog friendly. I couldn’t fault this cottage it had everything we needed. We travelled with our twelve year old granddaughter, who did mention a couple of things, she would have liked a mirror in the twin room and a blind /curtain on the bathroom window, but very minor things, she said the bed was the comfiest she had slept on. We hope to stay again soon.
