We have just spent a glorious, relaxing week at The Lookout. Fantastic location with stunning views over the sea and beach. the holiday home is wonderful, with a lovely seaside theme throughout. It is so comfortable, thoughtfully designed and equipped. Sally was a brilliant host, very welcoming. The communication and video instructions she provided were excellent and so useful. The welcome pack, waiting for us, was a very thoughtful touch. Eric (our Border terrier) was particularly impressed with the included local dog biscuits. Thank you Sally, we really enjoyed our stay...we didn't want to g...more
A comfortable and well presented lodge on a quiet holiday home site. Only two minutes walk away from beautiful sandy beach - with choice of dogs allowed one way or no dogs the other way. The beach was lovely and clean and very quiet with very few people - probably more during the peak season. The owner had left nice treats for the humans and dogs and answered additional questions on the booking. East Ruston Cottages very good to deal with. Friendly and helpful. A very enjoyable week.
We returned to Bumblebee in a different season and found a tranquil peaceful haven surrounded by nature bursting into spring. The cottage is more than comfortable, beautifully presented and the patio is a sun trap. There is everything there for humans and dogs. The walks from the front door are relaxing and the beach is 5 minutes away. The owners are supportive and friendly but unobtrusive. We will be back! In fact already booked for the autumn.
A fabulous holiday cottage, even better than the photos . A generous welcome pack,kind helpful hosts. Our dogs loved the field and the assortment of toys .
What can I say? except WOW WOW WOW!! The Barn is absolutely stunning, and every convenience thought of to make your stay incredible. We loved it here, as did our Dogs, and would recommend to anyone. Weather was good too, we had an amazing week, thank you.
A wonderful, relaxing week at The Lobster. We loved absolutely everything about it - a great welcome pack, private path to the stunning beach, luxurious bedrooms and bathrooms & beautifully furnished. It is so well designed inside and out. Our dog really enjoyed the garden and the Charley Chau dog beds provided. We could happily have stayed put all week but did a few trips out to East Ruston Old Vicarage Gardens, Bacton Woods, Eden in Stalham, Smallsticks, Watsons and the Gunton Arms. Another gem, thank you to the owners and team ERC. Really hope to return if we can get booked!
Perfectly situated cottage near to the town of Wroxham where there are shops &eating places overlooking the broads. Thatched Cottage is an immaculate one story two bedroom property comfy beds & a large corner sofa. It has a small courtyard garden at the rear of the property & a large garden at the front part of the garden. The wall isn’t very high & one of our dogs jumped over it. The woods & beaches are a 15-20 minute drive away. We would recommend this cottage & would stay here again.
Second time of visiting, everything was excellent as before and very friendly, would definitely recommend
We all absolutely loved Jacks Shack. Caroline has thought of everything and the cottage was so well equipped and stocked. The location was perfect for us with everything we needed close by. We were blessed with excellent weather and spent many happy hours on the beach and swimming.
Thoroughly enjoyed our time in this lovely cottage. Very clean. Fabulous welcome pack. Good communication with owner when we had a query. Very comfortable, lovely front garden. Secure for our dog. Would love to go back.
We had a lovely relaxing time at manor barn. There were four adults including my 90 year old mum and my disabled sister plus a mix of 8 dogs . The whole barn was extremely well equipped to suit the needs of all. The all access dog areas were fab and all of our dogs appreciated them. It was extremely hot so we spent a lovely two days not moving but that was fine. We even took our panther chameleon karma who had a very happy week
The walnut is a very neat little property and is part of willow tree holidays located in Happisburgh Heath. the property is neat and well furnished and outside is a hot tub which we all enjoyed. for the dogs Dylan and Monty there was a nice paddock where they could wander and meet other dogs. the owners Paul and Stella where very friendly and welcoming.
Great place especially for my dogs who don't do beach so the enclosed paddock is ideal. We would have preferred a walk in shower instead of the climbing into a bath as we are not youngsters. Overall a great place.
Excellent facilities for the dogs. They had their own enclosed spaces with toys and poo bags supplied. The cottage was comfortable and very well stocked with the best welcome package ever! Could have done with slightly larger sofas for four adults but other than that, it was brilliant!
Dormy was a lovely bungalow in which to spend a very relaxing week. The accommodation was perfect for two large GSDs who really enjoyed being able to wander from the back to the front garden and play on the two large lawns. It was great being able to just go through the gate and take a short walk in either direction to the lovely beach. We enjoyed sitting in the front and back gardens in such peaceful surroundings or relaxing in the lounge enjoying the view over the fields. The owners generosity with provisions was way beyond expectations and very welcome. We had a lovely morning out on Bacton...more
Our second stay at Sand Drift was just as good, if not better, than the first! The location is stunning and we feel completely at home there. Everything has been thought of and the welcome pack is very generous with bread, butter, fruit, milk, eggs and treats for humans and dogs - just perfect after a long drive. I was able to get in touch with the owners to ask a couple of questions in advance and they responded quickly. The binoculars were used every day to watch the birds nesting on the beach and we also enjoyed a game of Dogopoly!
This is our second visit to this lovely cottage beautifully presented from the moment you arrive the field for the dogs to run in is ideal. Everything has been thought of it’s definitely luxury to a high standard. The welcome hamper for us & our 5 dogs was a lovely touch even included a birthday cake & card. The owners are onsite & are friendly & helpful. The cottage is ideally situated for the beach, wooded walks. Stalham is a couple of miles away which has a supermarket, fish & chip shop & other takeaways also a vet which we have had to use. This accommodation is 1st class!
I chose Ruby Gem for several reasons. It was a solo holiday with my two whippets and although it sleeps 4, it didn't feel like I was rattling around on my own. It has a great little secure garden where I sat with a morning brew. It takes maybe 3 minutes to get to the miles and miles of dunes which I honestly preferred to the beach a lot of the time because of how much interest there was to see for both me and the dogs. Even at the end of a school holiday, it didn't take long to find an empty stretch of beach, and when the kids had left it was rare to have more than a handful of people ...more
We have stayed at Woodpecker last year and wanted another quick break away. 5 stars for this stay, to being very clean and contemporary modern, the hot tub and all amenities needed on site for your dogs to stay. The beach is very close and dog friendly along with the local shops and pubs. The owners of the Woodpecker are very responsive and helpful if anything is needed, we needed some directions the first time we stayed our call was answered straight away. Recommended to all dog owners, the dog beds provided are very nice, large and high quality, toys in the garage to take out with yo...more
A beautifully located and picturesque cottage with everything needed for an excellent holiday. Lots of walks from the cottage and easy proximity to beaches and other attractions. Very comfortable and well equipped.
Beautiful barn very well equipped lots of room even with 5 big dogs lots of great quiet walks close to the barn short drive to our favourite beaches will definitely book again if they will have us, even our escape artist Jack Russell couldn’t find a way out of garden. My only sad face was the internet connection not brilliant normally would have loved that but it was TT RACE WEEK. A small niggle from a great week with family
Excellent cottage leading out at the back to the sand dunes and the beach. Our dog loves it and so do we. Have stayed with East Ruston Cottages many times and would stay again. This is our second time at hidden Gem but we have stayed at others as well. Perfect for dogs and walks on the dunes and beach.
Broads Cottage is a lovely place to stay and has very comfortable beds and sofas and 2 great showers and a super deep bath! We were a bit worried about the garden being next to the road through the village but it was so quiet we didn’t need to worry. The dogs were relaxed in the garden and hardly a car or person went past. The garden is secure for most dogs, as long as your dog doesn’t jump or try and escape. Lovely walks along the Broads from the door, beaches just a 15 minute drive away. A friendly small local shop and a dog friendly pub a very short walk away which served great food. Gat...more
A lovely bungalow very clean and comfortable. Perfect position for bacton woods the dog’s favourite would love to come back again
A lovely very comfortable and homely cottage that had everything we could have wanted. It is so relaxing for us to go somewhere on holiday that actively welcomes dogs rather than tolerates them. A large and extremely interesting garden which the dogs loved. Lots of outdoor space to sit in and enjoy. The bed was very comfortable. There really isn't anything to improve on from our point of view. ERC and the cottage owner were in touch to ensure everything was ok. Walking distance from the pub and the beach. What more can I say.
Lovely little cottage with everything we needed. Practical outdoor space for a sit down and the dogs to get out but under close control. Offroad walks a few metres from front door. Good location for beaches and to explore Norfolk. On-line info pack spot on and very simple booking.
The farmhouse is a large, dog friendly house with two games rooms. We enjoy our time at the farmhouse this is our second visit we are a small family but this house gets us together and off phones and i pads. Playing Pool and darts are our main games and we have other family members who we visit when in Norfolk so they also come and enjoy the games rooms. When the farmhouse is full of people it’s large enough for everyone to find something to do or find a space for quiet chill out time or a chat.
We recently stayed at Rose Cottage with our friends and our old Staffie Millie. The booking and all communication before we arrived at Rose Cottage was great. The welcome pack that was waiting for us was amazing especially the Victoria sandwich. There was everything at the cottage that could want, especially for dogs. We were asked if we needed a cage and bed, but there was a whole doggy utility room with towels, blankets, dog washer, brushes, steps for little dogs and much more. The cottage was cosy, the owner was welcoming. I we had a fabulous stay. I would wholeheartedly recommend Rose Cot...more
We have just returned from a lovely week’s holiday at Corner Cottage. The cottage itself was clean, comfortable and very charming with a beautiful garden. It was well stocked with maps, books, games and dvds, plus a great welcome pack. Our 4 dogs were very well catered for as well, with treats provided, as well as throws, bowls and bedding. This made travelling with the dogs so much easier, as did having a garden that we knew was completely secure for them. The owners attention through the holiday could not be faulted, and I’m sure we will be using this company again.
Fabulous place to stay, great location & so close to the dunes great for walking the dogs, it’s the second time we have stayed there & the boys know where the back gate led too. The house is like a tardis looks like a regular terrace house but super big inside. We had excellent fish & chips from the local chippy & Rachel the owner kept in touch with us throughout our stay
First time at Rooster Barn. Had a week away with my husband and our four large dogs (Pointers and a Weimaraner). We were greeted with a lovely welcome pack and a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate our anniversary. The accommodation was perfect for us as it provided a secure space for our dogs to wander, as well as giving us a peaceful place to rest. There is a pub (under new management) in the village, where we sat outside after a walk with the dogs and everything else is just a short drive away. The neighbours dogs were not a problem. They occasionally barked when they heard our dogs outsi...more
We loved our stay here. First of all, the cottage is spacious! We came with our 2 German Shepherd dogs and there was plenty of room to move around. The garden was lovely to sit in and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening sunshine. Highly recommend the bakery down the road. The beach is super close which makes for some lovely walks, we visited good old Yarmouth only a short drive away and also Winterton-on-sea which is super pretty. We loved Brigg cottage and would stay again!
Lovely cottage very dog friendly garden - tested by my 4 spaniels Fabulous location, just a short walk to Bacton beach - you can hear the sea from the garden. Well equips property will return
Our recent weeks stay at Skylark was fabulous. Arrived to a super clean chalet, very well equipped kitchen including a dishwasher and nice comfortable surroundings, lots of nice little touches left, useful things you might need, weve stayed in other cottages that arent so well equipped ! Lots of things provided for doggies, we had taken our two Border Collies and were already aware there is no enclosed garden ( but gates and windbreakers provided for anyone needing to enclose their dogs ) we didn't need to. The surrounding area of the chalets are very well kept and it was very peaceful on...more
We had a lovely stay at Boundary Lodge, the owners provided a lovely welcome basket with goodies for us and treats for the dogs. We appreciated how dog friendly the property was with bowls and throws provided so they could feel really at home. The accommodation has everything you need for a comfortable stay including a fridge freezer and dishwasher. The garden was fantastic with plenty of room and comfortable sun loungers which were well used throughout our stay, the only thing we would suggest is maybe a sun umbrella for hotter days to provide a bit more shade. The Lodge is the perfect...more
A lovely relaxing stay at a wonderful house and location. Quiet and relaxing stay but within easy reach of beautiful beaches which were great for taking the dogs. Could not fault the property and the welcome hamper was well thought out and a real treat
Stayed for a week recently. Well equipped bungalow in a nice quiet village. Good road networks for visiting the local area and dog friendly beaches. Supermarkets not too far away. Would love to visit again, but unfortunately due to lots of military aircraft noise our 10 year old dog who suffers from noise anxiety was quite stressed at times.
We loved our time here but I probably wouldn’t say it was suitable for reactive dogs. There are dogs at the property next door which bark at the fence, meaning we kept having to call our dogs in. This won’t be an issue if your dogs don’t mind that. The fruit & juice we were given at the start of our stay was lovely.
Truly dog (and puppy) friendly. We felt we could truly relax here and enjoy our holiday. Everything you could think of needing while on holiday with your dog here was provided and with the hot weather this week, the paddling pool, the cooling mat and the multiple fans were amazing. The dogs loved stretching out on the cool floor and chilling out in the garden. For us knowing there was a vax carpet cleaner and a mop for any puppy accidents was a weight off our minds. The carpet upstairs is plush and the beds are super comfortable to sleep in. The bedding was pristine. Great location for a q...more
Fantastic hosts who made us feel very welcome and made our stay one we will remember. Great location in a beautiful part of the country.
We had a fantastic stay at this lovely cottage — it had everything we needed for a relaxing week away. The setting is incredibly peaceful, perfect for unwinding, and our dogs absolutely loved the secure garden to roam and play in. It's ideally located, with the nearest beaches just a short drive away, and the Weavers Way walking trail within easy reach. There are also plenty of beautiful National Trust properties to explore within a 30–40 minute drive. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet countryside retreat with great access to the coast and scenic walks.
Beautiful location. Very helpful owner. Great for dogs. Very clean. Comfy beds. Lovely kitchen. Weather was cold and only downside was evenings were chilly inside barn. Otherwise perfect.
We enjoyed a fantastic stay here in this fabulous location for exploring all the great things Norfolk has to offer. The house is spacious and the garden was beautiful to sit and relax in and watch all the wildlife coming and going. The site the cottages are located in is very peaceful and quiet and kept very tidy and clean. Our Dog fell in love with the goats (especially Colin - who is very affectionate) which were located just outside our back gate. There are direct walks from the site to the beach and a circular walk by the river that are very pleasant with an abundance of Wildlife to see. T...more
We have stayed at Red Roofs a number of times & it is the most relaxing cottage that we have booked for both ourselves & our dog. We stayed over the Xmas period & it was a delight to see the Christmas tree lights twinkling as we arrived. The welcome pack was excellent & we had the surprize bonus of the owner dropping off a tin of home made mince pies mid stay.
Second Stay this summer , we literally want to move in. Perfect House in a a Perfect setting. Inside the house the furniture is comfy and homely (not showroom) and that makes it a much more enjoyable stay with 3 Dogs. We stayed during a heat wave and after a hot day out the house was always lovely and cool to return to. Loved it and we will be back again soon.
Lovely peaceful cottage, great location. East Cottage has a beautiful large garden both hoomins & dogs enjoyed. It was lovely to listen to the birds in the garden first thing in the morning. The hot tub was amazing & we had perfect weather with only 1/2 days rain. The beds were incredibly comfortable & we all had a great nights sleep.
Great place, the walks are wonderful, lovely goodies thank you. Only thing negative is the hot water temperature is so hot it was hard to set the shower at a bareable temp. The enclosed garden big bonus. We would stay again.
