“The property was situated in a lovely area however on arrival whilst trying to sort hot water the fridge had to be moved there was lots of dirt & food under it.”

Freezer also needed defrosting, oven also needed a clean. Starter log pack lasted 1hour not the stated 4-5 hours. A warning should be given about door/ ceiling height. Hot water temperature was extremely dangerous. There were also lots of cobwebs.The locals were lovely which made up for the disappointment of the cottage. We've previously stayed in a Sykes cottage in Cumbria which was excellent all round we naively believed they would all be of the same standard when rated equally.

“We enjoyed our time at palm tree cottage and friends of my wife have already booked a week there in June .”

My only gripe is that the stairs are very steep and could see this would be a problem for the older generations as the bathroom and toilet are downstairs. But apart from that had a totally good experience in the cottage and in caister on sea .

“Lovely well equipped little fishermen's cottage.”

It had everything that we needed. Cosy, comfortable and dog friendly. The beach is right on your door step so great for dog walking. No problems with the park. Overall a relaxing enjoyable stay. Will definitely go back.

“We loved staying at this charming cottage.”

It was spotlessly clean on our arrival, and their were lots of thoughtful touches e.g. welcome pack, dog bowls etc.

“Lovely property.”

Perfect location. Had everything we needed and felt like a home from home. Expected to have an issue with parking but we had no problem at all. Tall people, remember to duck

“Caution low door frames, mind your head!”

!! The property was very comfortable with a great location- straight down the road to the beach was brilliant for the kids. Close to shops, takeaways and pubs. Only thing I have to complain about was the cleanliness of the property, it was not great. Understand that on beach road there is a lot of sand, but we had to clean the property again before we could unpack. Understand the cleaners only get a certain amount of time, but just a suggestion they need more time to clean.

“Property was dirty - stained bed linen, dirty floors, old food crusted into back garden table.”

Very disappointed, definitely would not recommend!

“Very nice cottage from which to explore Norfolk.”

Nice quality kitchenware, clear instructions on everything, good Wi-Fi, fair priced. Parking was really not a problem, although neighbours quite territorial, parking bumper to bumper and making it difficult to get in and out of the front door. Dog friendly beach a minute away was the highlight…

“A small, but very cosy cottage that is kitted out to a high standard.”

The owners have thought of most things needed for a holiday cottage even down to the requirements of guests doggies. Parking immediately outside is not easy, but spaces can be found near by. There is a pub and a fish and chip shop nearby and plenty of dog friendly pubs within easy driving distance. Would definitely stay there again.

“Beautiful cottage in a superb location.”

Excellent accommodation and welcome pack. The enclosed yard is ideal for the pooches. Lots of thought has gone into brilliant extras for trips to the beach and for furry friends. Definitely be back.

“Walk in shower for quickness baths take to long with 4people in the cottage.”

Did not like cars parked so close to the street door and kitchen windows barely enough room to get out the door. The car did not move once all the time we were there. Having to squeeze out between cars so tightly parked with dogs or young children is a nightmare.

“Loved the cottage, comfy and snug.”

Right by the beach, which is stunning.
