What our customers say about their holidays

  The flat is sited perfectly close to all amenities, that's a plus.

  On the other hand, the flat needed maintenance and regular inspection. We were so disappointed that both settees had their liners torn down under them, the cushions were also stained, not washed in a long time. There were cobwebs all around the kitchen and other rooms. Also discovered one of two carving knives had been snapped in half and hidden behind the cutlery tray, the same draw was full of crumbs, not cleaned out for quite a while. The toaster had been damaged and would only work when holding the handle down. The bedroom main light did not work, I discovered the energy saver tube had been smashed and the lamp holder damaged. I replaced this with permition of the owner as I was an electrician. The bed bed felt insecure when you laid on it and creaked badly, luckily i found a screw driver and allen key to tighten it all up. Later as we stripped the bed we discovered that the mattrass on the bed was badly stained, so off putting! We also had to buy our own kitchen sponge, surface cleaner and toilet rolls. Only one toilet roll for two people, very poor! Finally, the entrance to the building was overgrown with wild trees and weeds.

  What a location! Walking out the front door and seeing the sea was a real treat. The house is in a quiet road, just a few minutes from the beach. Also, it's only a short walk to the town centre. The house has comfortable beds - a must! It had pretty much everything you could possibly need for a holiday base. The table folds out and easily seats 4. The house looks small in the photos on the listing, but my partner and I (and our two gangly teenagers) had plenty of space, and enjoyed hanging out together in the lounge in the evenings. We spent a lot of time playing crazy golf, foot golf, pitch and putt, the putting green and the bowling green. We also went to the park, again a short walk away. The beach is wonderful for walking and fossil hunting. The sunsets are stunning. The RSPB reserve at Titchwell Marsh is worth a visit, as is the Sealife Centre. We recommend the Northgate Indian restaurant. If you want banter and a Belgian bun bigger than your head, go to Mr Bun the Baker!

  The flat is very centrally located in Hunstanton, only a few minutes walk from shops, restaurants and beach.

  Seagulls kept us awake at night and left droppings on our car, but this is to be expected in a seaside resort. It's good that the flat has its own parking space, although access down the alleyway is tight. There is a mistake in the driving instructions; from the High Street you turn right into Old Bakery Lane, not left. Inside the furniture is basic, especially the dining table and benches which are flimsy and uncomfortable to sit on. But the kitchen is well equipped and the bed was OK. We booked both flats 2 and 3 for our extended family, which worked out really well; the two flats share a common, lockable, entrance and stairs, so we were able to leave our internal flat doors open and come and go as we pleased. Unfortunately Sykes' website makes it really difficult to do this; they need to change it so that one person can book two holiday homes at once. We had to phone up and ask a staff member to sort it out; they were helpful and did.

  Hunstanton is a great place to take kids to for a short break.

  It has everything you need, is clean and friendly. Our accommodation was in a great location that allowed us to explore easily and not be too far from base. The flat contained everything we needed and was spotless on arrival. There is one double bed (slightly on the small side...for me anyway) and 4 sofa bed chairs that made up two excellent double beds for the children that really enjoyed them. TV and Netflix were easy to use (thank you for the log in details). Kitchen was well stocked expect for a lack of tin opener which we happily went and bought for the flat. The car parking space proved valuable too. Overall we were really pleased with our stay at this accommodation and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good base to explore Hunstanton and the surrounding areas.

  Overall we had a comfortable stay in Flat 3.

  We are in our 70's and some people may have been against booking a flat with the only access was up four flights of stairs but we are very active walkers and it wasn't a problem. There was an issue with a toaster that didn't work but the owner had a new one dropped of for us which was appreciated. The only real criticism is the table and chairs situation when having a meal. We feel that it needs reconfiguring because for us it became rather frustrating. The seating was in the form of two benches and we feel chairs would be better although space is still at a premium to enable better comfort. With a little imagination this could be rectified.
