Easy to walk everywhere and get transport. Well-equipped kitchen, cleaning supplies and welcome biscuits & drink was appreciated. The living room & hall got a bit cold but I believe your radiators just need bleeding. Thank you for a lovely stay.

It provided all our needs, it even has a very handy bus stop as we don't have a car, though there is a very handy large car park for the use of those staying in Oak Lodge. We even found a lovely (off main road) walk to the village of East Runton. We loved our stay despite the rain.

The owners have utilised all the space extremely well, the âsea artâ is really well done and it is very clean. It is very close to a bus stop with an excellent timetable. We thought it was really well placed for a weeks holiday.
