The location is wonderful. You can easily drive anywhere but if you simply want to stay put local facilities are more than adequate and just a short walk. Perfect for kids and dogs as the beautiful beach and greensward are immediately in front of your driveway. Inside is cosy and comfy plenty of hot water crockery and utensils. Crisp clean linen.

It was well worth the money we paid. Unfortunately the rear garden was not Yorkie proof. They managed to find a way out, but that is what Yorkshire Terriers are good at, escaping, the Houdini of the dog world. Whilst we were searching for them, we found them stood behind us wondering what we were looking for.

Peaceful getaway

Lovely place to have a peaceful break with our dog. A few things could do with replacing such as blinds and curtains but once you see the stunning view then these things are forgotten about. Just a short walk to the beach and some good places to eat nearby too. Would definitely stay again.

Great Stay

This is the second time we stayed here and it was just as good. Because our dog cannot walk easily it was great because most is carpeted soho couldn’t slip. A lot of holiday accommodation have floors that are quite slippy. We bought our own ramps to put by the back door. The chalet is lovely and clean and has everything anyone can want. The owner replied to our query straight away. Really recommend it here as the sea is just over the green in front. Keep your dog on a lead there though because of the cliff, but there is a slope down to the beach a little way along The Esplanade.

Cosy with an exceptional view

We took two people and two dogs on a weeks holiday. Walking on the beach, visiting local attractions and just enjoying the peace and quiet. Our holiday home was comfortable warm and well equipped. No negatives, just a great place to be.

Nice size property could do with some TLC, mats in the lounge could do with a wash and the shrubs could do with a tidy but the location was great. Lovely sea views and nice walks with the dog and we had a good week weather wise.

What a find!!!

This property is in a perfect location. It is a minutes stroll down some steep paths to the deserted beach. It’s is between two dog friendly pubs that serve great food. About 20 minutes to one and half hour to another. The place is clean with a great modern kitchen and bathroom. And amazing view out to sea. What a find!

Wonderful setting

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend, the setting is just wonderful, beautiful view and within easy walk down on to the beach. at the end of the road there is a convenience shop, bit further down there is a chippy and we enjoyed sunday lunch at Whites lounge bar, 10 minute walk away. As for the property, we found everything to be as described, good size rooms, beds were comfortable, well equipped kitchen and the communication with the owner, Kathryn, when we needed to ask a question was responded to quickly and very helpful. We will certainly look to return, hopefully next year but will make it a bit longer. One word of caution, when turning into Promanade Drive, be careful of the road surface, there are many deep holes on the unmade road, drive very slowly, but this was the only concern we had.

Views straight to the sea

The property is exactly as described. It is naturally quite chilly (at new year!!) but there are heaters provided everywhere which warm the place up really quickly so you can still feel cosy the whole time while looking out over the sea. We saw seal pups on walks along the beach and really didn't need to use the car. Fab stay. Thank you.

Peace and quite

I loved this place. Yes there was afew things that could be done to the place. The days given for putting out bins need up dating. Hoover didnt pick up Drain outside overflow But its so peaceful and in walking distance to shops etc in Scratby and didnt think we would be able to walk through to Hemsby with the trouble they have had with paths and cliff falls but found another way to walk which only took 8mins . Would i stay again? Yes i would.

Not what we expected

We arrived after a 15 hours drive and the toilet didn´t work. We tried to phone with the host and wrote a mail but we didn´t get any answer. My husband repaired the toilet makeshift. We were there with six persons and there was no tabel where we could eat together. Fortunately the weather was fine so that we could eat outside. There were spiders everywhere and for six persons there was definitely not enough space. For us it was a kind of garden hut. The only thing that was great was the sea view.

Holiday

The location of the property is absolutely stunning with beautiful views overlooking the sea.The back yard is uneven under foot , cobbles and slabs and could do with weeding .On entering the property instantly we could tell we would need the clean thoroughly as there was spiders and cobwebs everywhere ,sand and debris in the cupboards.And to top it off there was a blood stain on the duvet cover along with other plumbing issues which was reported but no action taken. The bungalow needs a lot of TLC but we made the best of it once we had cleaned thoroughly. Scratby is a lovely place to stay with some amazing restaurants in the surrounding areas.
