The Hollies is a modern single storey property tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Winterton-on-Sea. It sleeps four in two comfortable double bedrooms, both with en-suite shower rooms. The back yard is fully enclosed and four dogs welcome at no additional charge.

Lovely bungalow

Lovely bungalow with very comfortable beds. Clean apart from cobwebs and spider on one of the en-suite bathroom windows. The directions given to the beach in the welcome book is not the shortest route, which we found out by a local a much quicker way which was better for our senior dogs. A higher fence at the back would have been better as we couldn’t sit in the back garden much due to people and vehicles at the back. We did enjoy our stay and really appreciated the welcome pack.

Thank you for your review - I think! Spiders are the bane of our life. It’s virtually impossible to guarantee a sneaky one won’t work its way back in after cleaning and spin a quick web before the guests arrive. I’m going to take it as a positive that no other cleaning issues were mentioned. The Hollies is tucked away down a quiet cul de sac and there are several different options for getting to the beach from there, all of which should take only 5-10 mins. The back fence is probably 4-5 ft high, I think the side fences/walls are 6ft high and these are all shown clearly on the website. We hope all the other great reviews for The Hollies provide a balanced view of this lovely property.

Perfect stay.

We had a lovely stay at The Hollies. It was perfect for a dog friendly location and we adored all the dog friendly touches in the house. The house itseld is beautiful and the village has everything you need. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and welcomed after a long drive! We are already hoping to come back again next year!

As dog owners we were more than happy to return to the Hollies and Winterton with our friends. The welcome pack was much appreciated by humans and canines alike. We find the bungalow very comfortable and there is little to add to Steve’s review from last year except to say I am sure we will all try and come again next year if circumstances permit! Thank you!

What a fantastic find The Hollies was! We've visited Winterton countless times, but this was our first stay here, and hopefully won't be our last. The bungalow was immaculate, comfortable, and had everything we could possibly need. Its single-level layout, spacious rooms, and three bathrooms (two of them en-suite) were absolutely perfect for my senior parents. We loved the back garden – it was a perfect sun trap for enjoying an afternoon or evening drink. The location was also ideal, with the shop, pub, and fish and chip shop all within easy walking distance. We'd love to return!

We had a great time at The Hollies - the weather was perfect , which certainly helps! We were spoilt with 3 TV's and 3 bathrooms, and two totally dog secure gardens! Much bigger property than we expected and great to have a dishwasher, washing machine and dog wash!! Very comfortable, clean property, comfy beds and lovely and quiet.

Centrally located with lovely walks, tea room, pub and beach cafe just a short walk away. We walked along the beach to Hemsby - great walk, but Hemsby not so great ....... best to stay in Winterton. We visited Poppylands tea room - also another great find. This is our second visit to Winterton in 6 weeks and we will certainly be back again soon.

Had a wonderful week at the Hollies. Accommodation was very clean and welcoming and the welcome pack was gratefully received. Everything we could have wanted was available to us and we would certainly want to come again.

The Hollies is terrifically located in a quiet turning within 5 minute walk of a long stretch of sandy, dog friendly beach and village amenities. Local cafe and pub both wonderful, laid back, friendly, also pets welcome and great food. Accommodation, we loved it, modern, well appointed, spotlessly clean. The kitchen really had everything we needed to make full meals and to keep our dogs comfortable. Lovely welcome basket on arrival, comfortable beds and 3 bathrooms for use which was really practical

I’ve stayed at The Hiolllies before and come to the beautiful village several times a year. But yet I still walked in and got the wow factor, the open plan is lovely, the decor is modern and classy. We had the most wonderful welcome pack too. We had the choice of sitting out the front or the back garden in the sun, mainly opting for the front as it’s a little sun trap. Beds were very comfortable , we slept like logs, and we felt super spoilt have 3 tvs, and 3 bathrooms!
The only minor pain point was sitting to watch a film in the evening, with 4 fully grown adults , the sofa was quite cosy. But overall absolutely wonderful cottage, and we all agreed we will definitely be back!

We had a great few days, just what we needed. A fantastic property, modern, clean and everything both the dogs and we needed. Great idea having an ensuite in each room and a TV. Everyone we met in the village were so friendly, recommend Poppy's for lunch and cakes. The welcome pack was a lovely gesture, we arrived early and were grateful to get a message saying we could gwt in. A five star experience and will definitely go again.

We had a great holiday, the property was spotless and very comfortable, and nice to have a welcome pack with treats for the dogs as well. It was more spacious than it looked in the photos. We loved having 2 en-suites as we are single friends and like our own space indoors. it felt like a home not a holiday let.. good position close to the beach and eating places, would love to come back next year

Beautifully refurbished bungalow in a perfect location, quiet yet just a 10 minute stroll to the dunes.
Really well equipped, warm and comfortable. Great showers and that new feel about everything.
The owner was so lovely and very responsive, even allowing us early arrival. The welcome pack was much appreciated thank you.
The only thing that was missing was a decent sized freezer. The fridge had an ice box but but if you feed your dogs raw food or want to meal plan for the week it might be an issue.
Fantastic location and property 5*
