What our customers say about their holidays

  Annie and Toby are thoughtful and responsive to any questions.

  The holiday home is nicely decorated and feels like staying with friends. Fully equipped kitchen, very quick to respond when I needed help to work the hob. Everything you need has already been provided. The only extra items we used were pizza trays and pizza cutter for pizza night, and a clothes airer. The Coast hotel was very friendly and welcoming, Saturday evening entertainment was good and busy with local people. My kids enjoyed the arcades and swimming pool facilities. Any information needed is provided in the folder available for guests. We bought a few garden items from a garden sale next to the resort across the road from the decorated post box and telephone box. The weather was very kind to us and we visited several local attractions including, Great Yarmouth, Gorleston on Sea and Lowestoft, we had fun at Pleasurewood Hills themepark and the splash park at Gorleston where you can see some Banksy artwork, nice food at The Cliff hotel. We visited Ness Point and had nice food at the Lighthouse Diner. We also had a relaxing boat trip on the Broads and a nice meal at The Wherry hotel. Everyone we met were friendly and helpful. When there was an issue with the fence it was repaired within hours. My husband and son enjoyed playing football at the park where they joined in training with some locals. There is also a car boot sale on the field on a Tuesday. We visited East Coast Cinemas when the weather dulled. The broadband works well, although we were unable to work the cd player or bedroom tvs (remote batteries) although this did not affect our stay at all. The beds and sofas are comfortable. Towels, tea towels and oven gloves are all available and the ninja airfryer was fab. We enjoyed a lovely 2 weeks holiday. Tesco delivered groceries on the day we arrived so only needed to shop for a few bits.

  !st week of September booking for us - our Anniversary! We couldn't have chosen better - it was a home away from home

  . Everything was thought of - even a hairdryer (although it was suited for drying not styling). The kitchen was fully equipped - all the tools you could possibly need on holiday, and some you might not - even a fully loaded spice rack; condiments, and tea, coffee, sugar. As a conscientious renter we did make sure that we replenished any of the consumables - seems only fair! Plenty of blankets, for those chillier nights - not that we had any on our stay. A super comfortable bed ensured a good nights sleep. I did take my eye mask, so as to ensure no light pollution woke me too early, that did serve me well. The bathroom was spacious, with a good shower over a deep bath - absolutely splendid. Will, the owner, left a really useful information pack on the table, detailing local places to visit, and the history of the cottage - very informative, and most useful. If any further info was needed there was a very knowledgeable neighbour (Pete) popping into view most days - he was friendly and helpful. We made use of the recommended local chippy and Chinese takeaway (who delivered to us). Both were detailed in the info pack - and yes, they were definitely worth making use of. With some doggy treats left for our four-footed fur-baby, we were totally settled for a delightful week-long stay. Would we go back? A resounding YES! Anything we would change? No, everything you need is there - it is for a self-catering holiday after all! Thankyou Will - we loved it!

  We had a lovely stay at the house.

  I feel one point of the description of the house is completely misleading though - “freshen up in the sleek shower room before heading downstairs to the well equipped kitchen”. The shower room (which I would say is clean and functional but not exactly sleek) is downstairs, next to the kitchen. I feel this should be clear on the description, not implied that it is somewhere it clearly isn’t!! Not everyone would choose somewhere with the toilet on a different floor to the bedrooms, and maybe this is why the description has been done as it is. But it is wrong to do so. We couldn’t find a tin opener but other than that it was great. Yes I would stay again. The bed was comfy, the view from the main bedroom afforded a pleasant sea view between other properties on the site. The balcony is small but just wide enough to sit out on for the morning sunshine. Access to the “beach” is off the site, a five minute walk (once you have gained access to the code to the shortcut gate) , down a lot of steep steps. This leads to a path which goes in both directions. From there you have to walk a fair way before you can access the beach without climbing through the railings onto the rocks. We drove to Lowestoft for better beach access for my elderly dog.

  Firstly, apologies for delay in sending the feedback.

  We decided to book a week away to celebrate my husband's 40th and to have a mini break before the arrival of our second child. And I'm so pleased we did! My son loved the accommodation (he's 3 and very difficult to please!) saying it was better than his own house! And we agree, the property felt like a second home as soon as we walked in. It was clean, tidy, spacious and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The welcome basket was an added bonus and went down a treat. Thank you. The weather wasn't great, even though it was July. But that didn't dampen our enjoyment. We enjoyed using the swimming pool and visiting the local beaches and other places of interest. Overall, we could not fault it. It was a nice break in a cosy property. And seeing my son so happy before returning to the usual chaos at home, was wonderful. He also slept really well, which was the icing on the cake. A fantastic few days and we would definitely, 100%, return in the future.

  6 Coastal Cottage was perfect for our two-night weekend stay.

  We were three adults and two dogs, using the cottage as our base while visiting our daughter who lives in Suffolk. The cottage was warm and cosy during a cold spell, which was a comfort after beach walks with the dogs. The cottage came with a full list of instructions for utilities, including heating. The oven instructions were particularly helpful, as it had a quirky way of being turned on involving the clock/timer. The cottage presented well upon our arrival. It is small, so for a longer stay with three adults and two dogs, we would look for something larger, especially as we had our daughter and her partner visit for an afternoon. However, the images and description on the website accurately reflect the cottage. During the summer months, the outside space would be a bonus. The dishwasher was a bit tired but still functioned fine. Ideally situated for beach walks, which are just a two-minute walk away. Overall, a comfortable stay.
