Excellent dog friendly cottage

Great location accommodates dogs.Outside space adequate NO grass, some grass would be ideal. Cottage comfy and well equipped. If you like to cook frying pans tired in need of refresh. Would recommend to family and friends and would definitely return again. Village quiet with two pub/restaurants and post office with poppys cafe. Food store for essentials. Fish and chip shop. Lovely beach with cafe and toilets. The sand dunes are amazing, dogs loved exploring.

Perfect location for dog walks on an amazing beach

Beachcomber is a great location for one of Norfolk's best beaches at Winterton-on-Sea. This was our first family holiday with our baby and golden retriever. The house was really clean and comfortable with lots of space. There was a really nice welcome basket of goodies, including dog treats. They really do ensure your dog is treated as a guest, not just the pet you are bringing along on your holiday. The beach is literally a 5 minute walk away, it's massive and usually very quiet. The amenities in the town are very good. We visited the local cafe, pub, and got quality fish and chips on our last evening. Finally, the communication and instructions from our host was excellent and we would have no hesitation about visiting again in the future.

Family Getaway

We had the loveliest long weekend at Beschcomber. Garden was super secure for our German Shepherd an so close to the gorgeous quiet beach. Rachel was a fabulous host and gave us loads of useful information in the welcome pack. There was even snacks left for the dog! Highly recommended

We had a very comfortable stay at Beachcomber and were so pleased to find somewhere that really was dog friendly. Close to the dunes and the sea with other lovely walks around too. The accommodation was as described and the quirky stair gate worked a treat to stop my golden retriever from the upstairs ( even though he was allowed )

Perfect cottage

We had a lovely week in Beachcomber for the week, perfect location and lovely welcome basket full of goodies. The cottage was spotless and very comfortable, everything you need was thought of, the garden is very secure for dogs. The beds upstairs have to be the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in and very big. All adults and dogs had the best time thank you

Lovely property a short walk from the dunes

Lovely property - with a good layout, especially the eating area adjoining the kitchen. Stairs not too steep for dogs too. Warm, comfortable beds, hot water great, and shower excellent. Kitchen well stocked with ample room in fridge freezer. Great access to pub, shop and fish & chip shop. We also used the secure dog field a short drive away in the evening so Lola could get a run around after we arrived. Pretty good access to dunes. Our dog is a little nervous with strangers and other dogs so we had to check the short distance was clear as there are many dog walkers out and about, even early on. This is our second stay in Winterton and was the favourite of the properties we've stayed at. We had to skip our first day but still enjoyed our time and made the most of it. Am sure we will be back.

Fabulous time at Beachcomber

Brilliant cottage - very comfortable and clean. Very dog friendly with plenty of throws for the sofas and lots of doggie (and human) extras. The location is great - the Winterton Dunes are at the end of the road and it is only a few minutes stroll to get to the wonderful dog friendly beach. There is a well stocked corner shop at the end of the road within a couple of minutes walk. The garden, although not grassed, was ideal for our dog. Communication with the owner was good and the online information booklet was really helpful to keep on the phone. My only disappointment was having to come home at the end of the holiday! Hope that we can return to Beachcomber at some point in the future.

Fantastic place to stay

We had a great time with our two dogs at this property, it’s a fantastic location with a short walk to the beach and The Fisherman’s Return, we have never seen so many seals on the beach in our life. We would definitely book the property again

Very comfortable cottage, close to the dunes and easy walk to the beach

A lovely comfy cottage, fully equipped and super dog friendly. A home from home in a super village. The local pub did good food and allowed dogs. Well stocked convenience store at end of road. Endless local dog walks but we loved the dunes. Seal pups on the beach were a bonus. Great beaches all along the coast for a good run for the dogs. Loved it all.

Beachcomber

If you just want to unwind this is the place to do so, minutes walk to the Dunes where you can walk miles then end up having a coffee at Seal view . Beachcomber has everything you need home from home.

This is my third holiday via East Ruston holidays. I had a relaxing break. The cottage was welcoming and like home the moment we arrived. The guide provided via an app and information pack at the cottage was very helpful. Highly recommend

Fantastic property and location

A lovely, well appointed cottage just a couple of minutes walk to unspoilt dunes and beaches. The property was immaculately clean and provided everything needed for both human and four legged occupants. Beautiful walks moments from the doorstep as well as a corner shop, lovely pub and tea room. Less than 10 minutes drive to visit Horsey wind pump and beach, seeing the seals on the beach is a fabulous sight! We all had a great time and would love to come back again soon.

Happy family holiday

The choice of accommodation was based on finding somewhere happy to allow 3 dogs and for the dogs not to be restricted as it's their holiday too. Beechcomber met all these needs and more. We had the best family holiday in a fantastic location with walks, the sea, cafe, shop and pubs all close by and accessible. The accommodation was perfect, everything we needed was there and so thoughtfully prepared. I would recommend a stay at Beechcomber and hopefully will be back there again myself one day.

Beachcomber Winterton on Sea

We had a fantastic stay at beachcomber a family of four with late teen/ adult children and our spaniel. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Well stocked games cabinet we had a couple of games of traditional monopoly!! The location of Beachcomber was fantastic, the cottage has parking which was a bonus as there is limited places to park nearby in the village. Five minute walk onto the beach at Winterton. Winterton beach was my favourite, walking the dog fairly early in the morning meant I was quite often the only person on the beach. Well apart from the seals bobbing their heads out the water, they were very inquisitive. The village has a pub, village store ( very reasonably priced), fish and chip shop and tea room ( also serves as a bakery). I would highly recommend staying at beachcomber - Rachel the owner was in touch prior to our holiday and as we arrived to ensue everything was in order. This was really appreciated. Norfolk has lots to offer, we had a very busy but fun filled week. I would highly recommend staying at Beachcomber it’s their perfect base to explore beautiful Norfolk.

Very fog friendly

Very dog friendly, great location, approximately 200 metres from the dunes and then a short walk to the beach. Outside hose to wash paws and even dog towels provided. Comfortable, modern accommodation made for an enjoyable stay. Recommend the Fisherman's Return pub for meals and Poppys tea rooms for English breakfast. Both only a short walk away. This is our second visit to Winterton. The bonus this time were seeing the seals and pups on the beach. Wonderful.

Perfect stay in a perfect location

Such a fantastic cottage in a lovely dog friendly location. Comfortable, well equipped cottage with a secure garden for the dogs. Towels and blankets provided for dogs alongside treats and bowls. The cottage is just a stones throw from miles of off lead walks across the dunes and beach. Such a peaceful location. Lots of countryside walks within driving distance and some amazing dog friendly cafes.
