Spotlessly clean property. The stairs are very steep, treads uneven,and hand rail loose, this did not effect our stay, but think it should be stated in the details., had it been mentioned we might not have booked. The two televisions are very old, at least one modern television might be nice.

Well equipped cottage with fabulous walks on the doorstep! We enjoyed, beach, coastal paths and woodland walks. Enclosed sheltered back yard useful for dog and we ate lunch in the autumn sunshine out there . Short walk to railway station, village pub and local shops. The stairs may be problematic for anyone with mobility issues.

The cottage felt like a real home from home, with everything you could possibly need. It was comfortable and very tastefully decorated with funny prints and nods to the seaside location. The location is ideal forRead more exploring the local area on foot, but also has excellent transport links; we took the train from West Runton station to Norwich which was beautiful.
