“We really enjoyed our stay at this cosy, beautifully decorated cottage.”

The kitchen is fully equipped, including a dishwasher which was unexpected. Comfortable seating in the living room, and same can be said of the beds. The welcome tray was a nice touch and appreciated. Dog friendly garden. The stairs are steep but you soon get used to them. A couple of minutes walk to the beach and amenities. Mundesley is a charming village and a good base for visiting North Norfolk. We would love to come back.

“Cobbler’s Cottage is in a gorgeous location, especially if you have dogs.”

The cottage is cosy and amazingly well equipped. The glorious long beach is only a minute away. The property has the added advantage of parking for 1 car and a private, sunny courtyard. We first spent a week last year and have just returned from a fortnight stay. We have now booked again for 2 weeks next year. It is absolutely perfect for us with our 2 Cocker Spaniels. The Ship Inn, almost opposite, is handy for a post walk drink and has a beer garden overlooking the beach. The Royal Hotel is 3 or 4 minutes walk away, dog friendly, lovely staff and we much preferred this for food. Well stocked shop and takeaways close by too.

“Lovely cottage very comfortable plenty of equipment to cook with.”

Only problem for us was that it was cold the log burner was good we cleaned the glass but the lounge was the only room warm the storage heaters wasn't warm long I turned the thermal stat up but I was very cold . It would be great in summer months the stairs are very steep & our little dog got under it & got outside the garden gate too as he is a jack Russell/ chihuahua Cross our beagle was OK.

“Wonderful weekend away.”

Beautiful little cottage in the perfect location a very short walk from the beach, the pub, shops and take aways. The cottage was warm and cozy with everything we needed. Stairs are steep but that was made clear in the listing. Will definitely be back

“Very nice holiday cottage, just right for the two of us.”

Perfectly located in Mundesley, a stones throw from the pub and beach.

The property was very comfortable, think it could do with fresh up as wall paper in kitchen coming off and in bathroom with mould on pipes and shower curtain, so we brought new one for property, apart from the few things was a pleasant stay ,would definitely use again, thankyou for the stay,

A sweet little cottage the layout was very quirky I would have loved to have seen a floor plan from when it was converted And I liked the photos from the cobbler day’s Karen x

“The cottage was in a prime location near the beach and all the amenities of Mundesley.”

It was well equipped and spotless. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

“The cottage is in an excellent location with easy off-road parking, close to the beach and the village of Mundesley.”

It is an excellent base for exploring this part of Norfolk. The house was very clean on arrival and is well-equipped. We had a very comfortable stay. Communication with both the owner and Sykes cottages is excellent.

“We had a fabulous holiday the location of the cottage was perfect for morning walks up the beach with our dog.”

The cottage was clean and had an enclosed courtyard at the rear which was a sun trap and lovely place to chill after a busy day out and about or on the beach. Mundesley 9 hole golf course is nearby and allows well behaved dogs on a lead so we had a couple of rounds and chats with members in the bar afterwards. We met lots of local people walking dogs and this has to be one of the friendliest places to visit. We all loved it that much we are coming back in 2023.

“All pillows on the beds could do with being re-placed due to them being stained.”

May be for hygiene reasons put protector covers on each pillow. Great location for all amenities within the village. Leak under the sink needs attention due to smell when entering the property. I would stay here in the future.

“Initially liked the cottage.”

Great location for beach and small village amenities (Ship inn very Good, but Chinese takeaway bland). Good ice cream shop next to arcade. Close by to Cromer, Sheringham, Holt and lots of National Trust sites. All the good parts were overshadowed by our first day. Managed to get suitcase upstairs, very narrow and winding as stated in the information, certainly not recommended for elderly or very young children, and was met by an unpleasent smell in the bedroom. Contacted the cleaners early next morning and asked them to investigate and get back to me. No response by lunch so before contacting again had a further look around and discoverd dog Poo under the bed. Clearly the cleaning company had not even looked under, let alone cleaned under the bed (7 hours cleaning time???). Contacted cleaning company again and explained. Said they would try and send someone out... Contacted Sykes and they were brilliant, they contacted owner and cleaning company. The issue was resolved in the afternoon and some recompense negotiated on our behalf with owner. Walked round very carefully in anticipation of wet patches. Looking to book somewhere for summer, but will definitely stipulate a cottage where no dogs allowed.

“The Cottage is in a good location for the beach and all amenities.”

We enjoyed our stay here with our two dogs.You have to be very careful on the stairs you need to use the handrails provided .The garden is a little sun trap all day long and secure for our dogs.We enjoyed our stay here and the weather was fabulous. Thank you.

Excellent location easy access for beach, pub,local shops etc all within walking distance, property nice and clean on arrival,biggest problem was the stairs very narrow and steep very had to get cases upstairs, double bed old could do with replacing,advise use of anti slip mat inside bath when showering,nice small secure garden for dog and a perfect sun trap to finish off the day after being on the beach all day, surprised by the size of kitchen smaller than looks in photos overall very enjoyable stay made even better with lovely weeks weather

“It would be great if check in times were as pre covid.”

If think that 5.00 check-in is very late and 9.00 check out too early. However, we had a lovely stay and would go again.

- Noreen, April 2022

Thanks Noreen, We have now confirmed a 10am check out time moving forward. Appreciate your feedback. Property Owner

“Fantastic cottage and perfect location for great walks on the beach with our dog.”

- Jon, April 2022
Geoffrey March 2022

“We found that the cottage had been well prepared and nicely decouated.”

what we where cocerned about was the trip hazards in the doorways where one room was at a slightly different height to the next. also the large step down into the kitchen. a lot of money seems to have been spent inside but the path to the backdoor was at differing levels with three or four trip hazards which should have been rectified.The cottage is not one to recomend for older people as the stairs are a challenge and the living room furniture is low and difficult to get out of. It sounds like we are knocking it but it was nice shame about the weather. Geoff

Barry September 2021

“Lovely little cottage in a great location.”

It was clean and I cannot understand the reviews given by some users. The only downside was the poor quality of the fish and chips at shop next the pub which did good food and beer

Overall good but sofamuch to large for a cottage someone's old one also flaky paint work on lounge wall shame would only take a few hours to put right and lastly the floors were very sandy needed a good clean

- Alan, August 2021
Andy August 2021

“The major issue was we were without hot water for the last 48 hours of our holiday.”

This was reported but not resolved and the communications from the housekeeping company were poor to non-existent. Aside from that, the property is smaller than the listing implies and (as other published feedback implies) equipped to the absolute bare minimum possible. The area is lovely, there was plenty to do and the presence of a dog friendly beach on the doorstep was great, so otherwise, we had a great stay.

- Andy, August 2021
Nick July 2021

“Fantastic cottage.”

Perfectly located within a couple of minutes walk to the beach.

- Nick, July 2021
Max June 2021

“The cottage was great but there were some issues as far as equipment in the kitchen.”

Snagging should have been done. No egg cups, butter dish, sugar bowl, milk jug or cafetière. Only one Pyrex dish and one dish for microwave. Only two cups and saucers for a four person cottage. No kitchen scissors. This may seem minor but necessary when self catering. Unfortunately a large damp patch in living room we believe due to a problem under the bath. Needs rectifying. Beds excellent and furnishings very good. Outside furniture quite adequate.

- Max, June 2021
Robert June 2021

“Great little cottage in a perfect location very close to the dog friendly beaches.”

Our only criticism is that it could improve its wine glasses as there were only 2 wine glasses both different and one was very small. A hairdryer would also have been very helpful if it had been provided as we had to buy one as in our experience they are normally provided.

- Robert, June 2021
Juliet June 2021

“The cottage is delightful, very quaint with an excellent location - just minutes from the beach.”

I would definitely recommend a holiday here. My very minor feedback would be 1. The check in time (5pm) and check out time (9am) could be a little more generous. Is 8hours required for a clean and changeover? 2. I would swap the washing machine for a dishwasher (personal preference and I’m aware may have a different view point) 3. The bedroom door of the twin doesn’t shut properly which hindered bedtime for the children a little 4. We failed to locate a hairdryer

“A beautiful cosy cottage, minutes from a beautiful sandy beach.”

Nestled in Mundesley village, a lovely Norfolk seaside resort. The house has everything you need for a perfect holiday. You can walk for miles by simply stepping out of the front door. Easy access to a variety of interesting places. Would highly recommend.

“Very enjoyable week.”

Cobblers cottage was a lovely place, very clean but on a busy road. Only thing missing from cottage was a vacuum cleaner.

Sarah October 2020

“Property wasn’t really clean, carpet was full of hairs which my daughters clothes were covered in.”

Kitchen is freezing with no heater. Living room door does not shut, Window in main bedroom is broke and can not shut being so close to the road it’s awful at night with traffic. On the plus side some lovely walks around the area and Beach. Would visit the area again but wouldn’t stay at Cobblers Cottage.

- Sarah, October 2020

Due to the excess amounts of rain we've seen this autumn we've made the decision to invest further in the property by completing full remedial works, damp proofing, replastering & re-decorating of the ground floor during the month of November 2020. In addition to this we are having repairs done to the roof & gutters alongside replacing the washing machine and completing additional minor maintenance jobs across the house. Unfortunately, with an old cottage like Cobblers, and being so beautifully close to the sea, we do our best (with our trades partners) to ensure everything is kept up to a high standard and we will continue to do so.

“There were some very minor maintenance jobs requiring attention but as its near the end of the main hoilday season this is expected otherwise nothing else comes to mind.”

We enjoyed our stay at cobblers cottage. Peter Hurdus

Keith October 2020

“Walls damp in kitchen and dining room and smells damp too.”

Back door swelled and was difficult to open. Lounge door doesn’t close properly, door handle screws loose and makes the room draughty. Two double glazed windows had blown. Handbook info stated that the open fire could not be used yet it is pictured alight in cottage photos. Totally misleading. We were looking forward to using this, particularly because it was cold. On the plus side the property was near the pub and beach, tv and WiFi was good, a welcome bottle of wine, biscuits and milk were appreciated, free on-site parking. We will not be in a hurry to return to this property though we love Mundesley and will revisit again.
