The property is excellently maintained. We had a problem with the TV but after speaking with the owner who managed to get a chap out early the following day, all was well. Couldnât have asked for better service. Being able to sit on the front in the sunshine after a âlong day on the beachâ was an added bonus. We have stayed in this area previously and decided to return as itâs perfectly situated with being close to a friendly pub (The Swan) which serve good food and outside pods which can be reserved. Tesco is on the doorstep. Sea Palling is only a short drive away and our favourite beach with only a five minute walk from the car park (short cut over the dunes from the furthest away car park and parking as far away from the entrance) where youll find lots of vacated beautiful soft sand to play ball games and shallow waters if you fancy a swim as we did. The lady next door told us about a Groupon offer for Simpsons boatyard (literally just around the corner) which we took up. Roughly half price 2 hour electric boat hire. Of course fabulous weather can make or break your holiday but we had wall to wall sunshine every day!!!If I have one issue it is the road noise but other than that itâs top marks out of all the properties weâve stayed in over the years in and around the area. Thank you.
