Excellent location and off street parking a bonus. House was comfortable, triple bunks would be a good novelty for younger kids. Garden completely enclosed, so ideal for doggy guests. Milk and biscuits on arrival was a nice touch - thank you.

We had a wonderful week & recommend the Holiday House without hesitation. Nicola was very helpful & agreed to our stay at very short notice (thank you!). While not being luxurious, it had everything we needed & essentials many 'bought-to-rent' houses don't (dog-secure garden, washing line, outside shower, enough pans, crockery and cutlery etc) & weRead more liked the artefacts - enough to feel it's a family holiday home, but not cluttered. Plus, a wonderful beach so near. We would definitely book again! Hide

I would highly recommend this holiday house, it really was a home-from-home and we had a lovely few days' stay there. The location of the holiday home is excellent, ideal for walking the dog on the nearby beach, and the house is well furnished and seems to be a much-loved home.

A lovely property. Excellent location being a short walk from shops and beach. We enjoyed the pier on Christmas Eve and a lovely morning walk on the sandy beach Christmas morning.

We really enjoyed our stay, fantastic location just a short walk to the beach which our dogs loved. Also just a 10 min walk to the Victory pub, fish n chips and pie n mash. Nice garden which our dogs explored enthusiastically every day. We lost our dog sitter during COVID and as we won't put them in kennels this was our first holiday since then.

Location of the house cant be faulted, near to the beach, short walk into town, seafront is also very close by. Also really good if you have a dog because of the secure garden and handy outdoor shower. Theres a quirky feel to the property, which is part endearing, part confusing. Some nice touches with the bare wood floorboards and comfy beds, but Read morethe dusty ribbon rolls on the shelves and the crazy lampshades in the bedrooms ??. I can imagine its great if you have younger kids. A solid 3/5 . Hide

We loved our stay here, the location is amazing; the beach is incredibly close by, and it's probably the best bit of beach between Walton and Frinton! The house is great, a lovely space to relax in. The kitchen is well appointed, and we appreciated the beach trolley too!
