What our customers say about their holidays

Gillian - Verified booking

We stayed in this property last week The property was in a lovely area but the journey was quite a trek, especially in the wet weather, and we had to travel along several miles of bumpy unmade up roads full of potholes to reach The Cart House.

Anyone with a lower slung car would have found the roads virtually impossible to travel along The holiday property was very near to the ownersâ property which we were not aware of at the time of booking. The property wasnât well cared for and the standard of cleanliness was not what we expected. It clearly had not been cleaned thoroughly for some time There had been a flood in the downstairs loo and hallway which hadnât been repaired by any sense of the word and it was almost derelict in the hallway and very damp The kitchen wasnât great. A lot of the equipment was below standard and again cleanliness was an issue The 3 sofas in the sitting room were clearly very old and had no support The promised WIFI was dreadful, as was the TV connection. The TV pixelated all the time which made it virtually impossible to watch and it was certainly not a Smart TV as stated. We had little or no internet connection for the whole of the our stay which caused difficulties for us. As for the promised outdoor amenities, the tennis court grass hadnât been prepared for playing, the telescope was rusty and unusable and the hut, which we had hoped to sit in, was run down and had no suitable seating. The swimming hole was also unusable as the jetty to access the water was unstable and dangerous And from the description of the property we had expected to have a private garden to sit in which was not the case. There was just one bench outside near the back door and near to the track which vehicles used. There was nowhere to sit outside together as a family and enjoy a meal, as advertised.

The property was just as it looked in all the photos.

It was easy to find and in a great place for exploring Orford itself, taking the boat over to Orford Ness (which I had booked in advance online to ensure we could go) and coastal walks. We didn't use our car for the first two days! The garden was a pleasant place to sit in the afternoon sunshine with a view of the Keep. The property itself was well laid out, contemporary in design, extremely well equipped especially in the kitchen area. The bed was very comfortable as well as the sofa. The TV was only able to show bbciplayer, prime and netflix as there is currently an issue with the freeview. We did also have only lukewarm water for the shower but the owner was helpful when I phoned her on the first day. The bath was fine, nice and long and relaxing. We had the best welcome pack we have ever had in a holiday cottage, thank you. We had breakfast at the bakery, a lunch at the Jolly Sailor (a bit chaotic garden table service!), an evening 'pub' food meal at the Kings Arms and a drink in the garden at the Crown and Castle. Would recommend the village stores too and we loved the honesty box newspaper hut near the village hall! A great choice all within walking distance. The property is set behind The Dunns which is owned by the same family. Would highly recommend staying at the Curious Oyster, you will not be disappointed.

The property is situated in the grounds of the hosts home, which are quite considerable with a pond, very large grassed area and other ex farm use buildings plus a rough grassed tennis court if you want a knock about.

The hosts are very warm and friendly and allow you full use of the garden and surrounding area. On entering the property, the main downstairs area which comprises a kitchen diner and lounge area, the first thing that hit us was an amazing air of calmness and serenity, the stress of the journey here ( 7 hours ) just melted away. The place was lovely and clean and fixtures and fittings are to quite a high standard although some pans and 2 of the settee's could do with an update ! The master bedroom had an emperor size bed which was incredibly comfortable, pillows were also very comfy. The property is in a very rural location so it is beautiful and quiet, no passing traffic, or anything really, as it is at the bottom of a farm track but this is the properties appeal, a total chill out and de-stress rental. My only real negative for this rental would be the poor security on the external doors and renters should understand that the properties appeal of a quiet isolated location also means you need to drive to go to pubs, shops etc. Overall though a highly recommended location for a rural break.

The accommodation is clean, modern and 'Scandi' influenced.

The main living area is well appointed with good quality fittings and welcome items provided. The Oyster's location is excellent, adjacent to the castle, next stop the Crown & Castle, then the newspapers in the foyer of the Town Hall, the General Store (great bread and selection of cheeses, etc.), King's Head and the Jolly Sailor - three recommended dog-friendly hostelries and venues. Some other places are not dog friendly but we did use the tearooms on the riverside and the smoke house shop. Maintenance - the enclosed garden's grass had not been cut for some time so clearing up was made a little harder (perhaps its being re-wilded?) and the conifer type hedge up the driveway was also unkempt to the extent it brushes the car as you use the drive when you get as close as you can to the on-site bungalow. The Curious Oyster sign at the end of the drive is also unkempt as its partially covered in ivy so look out for The Dunns sign and you're there, it's the same driveway. Would we go back - certainly, good accommodation, well sited, clean and the people we met seemed friendly.

Nikki - Verified booking

Absolute gorgeous bolt hole, with lovely Scandi styling.

The welcome gifts were much appreciated and got our holiday off to a great start. We loved it. We did leave a note as the taps in the kitchen and bathroom sinks did drip significantly and loudly (probably noticed more because of the silence!) and the hoover performance was a bit patchy but those are niggles really and easily fixed. Itâs such a fabulous spot and we loved it. Pinneys seafood, Pump Bakery bread and cakes, great pub food in The Kings Head, coffee and cakes in the cafes, fine dining at the dog-friendly table in the Crown and Castle, river trips round the Ness - we did it all. Also day trips to Aldeburgh and Sutton Hoo plus a look round Orford Castle which is literally on the doorstep. The grounds were great for walking the dog - he loved all the new smells! Appreciated that so many places were dog- friendly, including the Curious Oyster. Weâll be back!
