About this property

Rose Cottage by East Ruston Cottages

ALL ABOUT THE INSIDE:

Conservatory
Entrance is via the cosy conservatory with solid floor and furnished with 2 comfy arm chairs and a coffee table. Perfect to sit and enjoy the sunshine on cooler days and dogs will love it here too. From here straight into the…

Hallway
Just off the hallway is the utility room with storage space, dog towels and throws. Hoover, ironing board and iron in here too. Next to this is the downstairs toilet/sink. The stairs lead off the hall too.

Kitchen/diner
Very well fitted out with some character pieces of kitchen furniture. A great space to cook and eat. There is a fold out table to seat 4 and appliances include electric oven/hob, large freestanding fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, coffee bean grinder and coffee machine. No dishwasher. Coffee is taken seriously here – fresh beans are provided for you to grind and use in the machine to suit your exact taste!

Lounge
Just off the hallway the lounge has 2 sofas (1 is a 4ft sofa bed) and a comfy armchair. Solid floor throughout, non slip and easy to clean. Flat screen TV and bookcase with a selection of books and maps. Games too.

Stairs
They are not too steep, have a handrail and are carpeted. Dogs are allowed upstairs but do ask if you would like a stairgate to stop them.

Double bedroom
Divan double bed with a metal headboard. Hanging space and side tables with lamps. Carpeted.

Twin bedroom
2 single beds, wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside cabinets. Carpeted.

Bathroom
Modern bath and separate shower cubicle. Toilet, sink and storage too. Light and airy.

ALL ABOUT THE OUTSIDE:

A small area but well laid out. Parking for one car. There is also free parking on the road running through the village. Get a spot near to the end of the lane and you won't have very far to walk at all.

The area is paved and gravelled and well fenced all round with solid fence – 4ft+. There is a wooden table and chairs, a bbq (charcoal) and an outside shower for sandy paws or wetsuits. There are neighbouring properties but generally very quiet and the road is a dead end track so very little in the way of passing traffic or people.

Lovely stay at Rose Cottage
I thoroughly enjoyed my few days at Rose Cottage. It has everything you need for humans and dogs. Very close to the Walcott beach and others near by. Nice pub within walking distance and a good Cafe and Fish & Chip shop nearby. So you don't have to cook if you prefer not to on holiday.

Great stay!
Truly Dog friendly cottage in a fabulous location. Perfect for 2 with 2 dogs! Well equipped kitchen & smashing little conservatory to relax in. We had a great week ..walks on empty beaches & choice of eateries nearby and of course delicious homemade cake in the welcome pack. We hope to return!!

Rose Cottage
Our second stay at Rose Cottage, Anne and Gary always make us and our furbabies so very welcome and looked after. The welcome pack is amazing so thoughtful and kind. Our crew absolutely love it there, they all turn into happy puppies even our 12year old. Cobi's face is an absolute picture when he sees the amazing toy box, he's like a kid in a sweetshop. The location of Rose Cottage is perfect only a step away from the beach and not too far from Bacton woods. This is a perfect well catered for dog cottage , with lovely owners who genuinely love and cater for our pooches. What more could a dog owner want. Our crew are already woofing for another visit.

Another Great Holiday at Rose Cottage
Rose Cottage is a home from home. Anne, the owner has a lovely cottage and provides all the necessary things for a comfortable, relaxing stay for both humans and dogs. Anne's welcome goodies are the best we've ever had in all the places we have stayed. So dog friendly and there is everything you could possibly need for your dog - toys, towels, blankets, dishes, leads etc. The cottage is yards away from the beach, Poachers Pocket pub, convenience shop, cafe and fish and chips shop. It is also central to places of interest and trips out across Norfolk. The only complaint we have is that we have to tear ourselves away and come home! Roll on to our next visit.

Lovely cottage, in a fab location, as spoke of before, straight across from a lovely stretch of beach. Drive a little tight for parking, but nice to have your car straight outside, stones a little uncomfortable for my pugs on the drive, but nothing that bothered them to much. Fab welcome tray on arrival for humans & doggies, with a beautiful Victoria sponge. (Thank you Anne) Lovely lovely owners. Kingfisher fish&chips were lovely, has was the lighthouse pub, Watsons cafe and a short drive to Smallsticks cafe all beautiful, village shop well stocked to. Definitely would return, as we keep doing with east rushton, as each place has been lovely and never disappointed.

Beautiful cottage lovely location
Cosy, comfortable, clean cottage . Everything you needed thought of. Close to the beach . Made to feel very welcomed by the owners. My only slight negative is whilst you have allocated parking it can be a bit tricky to get in with a long car due to the narrow unmade road . But other than that perfect. Had a wonderful stay . The only reason I would not book again as I like to go different places every time I go away . But definitely recommended.

Very welcoming and dog friendly
We had a lovely stay at rose cottage. Great for dogs especially as we had 4. Would have been nice to have had a bigger garden space but the beach is on the doorstep.

Relaxing break
Our second visit and we felt relaxed as soon as we walked in. We can't pinpoint what makes Rose Cottage so welcoming and relaxing. Is it that dogs are so well catered for? Is it the wood burner? Is it the comfortable bed? Is it the cake? We can say the owners are so friendly and welcoming. The location just across from the beach is great and there's lots of walks to choose from. Looking forward to returning sometime soon.

Glorious cottage
East Ruston Cottages and Anne have delivered above and beyond again. Anne messaged to ask for any special requirements we might have and as my dachshund had just had double surgeries I potentially needed a buggy, which she supplied. Anne also offered us steps to the sofa for her. And this is the best bit, she said if our dogs like to sleep on the bed with us, there were throws for that too. Our welcome pack was lovely and the dogs Christmas stocking was a big hit with the pooches on Christmas morning. The cottage is glorious and in a great location. The beach is literally just across the road and our dogs loved their time on the sand. Anne provided lots of towels and a mud daddy for washing them down if needed. The cottage had everything we and the dogs needed for a great stay. It was lovely to come home and light the log burner and snuggle down on the sofas to watch TV. The Poachers Pocket pub/resturant and the Lighthouse Inn are both within easy walking distance. We had a smashing Christmas lunch at the Poachers pocket. Unfortunately the chip shop was closed until January so we couldn’t sample its delights but we did have an amazing breakfast at the Kingfisher cafe. The little store also stocks everything you could possible need or want. We drove to Cromer to the dog cafe and had a fabulous lunch on Boxing Day at the Gunton Arms. We had a lovely and restful stay at the cottage which is just what we needed. Everyone we met was so friendly and I love that we could take our dogs everywhere with us. I highly recommend Anne, Rose Cottage and of course, East Ruston Cottages for the perfect dog friendly get away.

Much needed break
After a couple of tough months it was so good to get away, and we certainly chose a perfect spot! Rose Cottage was lovely, had everything we needed, and the location was too was perfect. Our dog loved the sofa, taking advantage of being able to join us there, as there were throws a plenty, and the beach was wonderful. We visited a couple of pubs, and the fish and chip shop all of which were good.

Rose Cottage
Rose Cottage is a very comfortable and cosy cottage just across the road from the beach. Everything you need for a holiday with your dogs is provided including a lovely welcome pack for both adults and dogs. We had an amazing time and will definitely be back.

Lovely property
Have just enjoyed a great week at Rose Cottage in Walcott. Well presented property with great supplies for the dogs - towels, throws, dishes, toys and beds. Super welcome pack both for us and the dogs, including a beautiful home made cake. As Anne and Gary knew we were celebrating our wedding anniversary during our stay there was also a lovely bottle of prosecco, flowers, chocolates and a card. Perfectly situated for the fabulous long beach (literally over the road), the Kingfisher Cafe & Fish and Chip shop and Walcott General Stores. Short drive to Bacton and the Cafe Carmel or to The Lighthouse Inn at Walcott, where we had two fabulous meals. Definitely recommend this lovely property.

Cottage in great location
The cottage is just across the road from the sea and lovely sandy beach. Perfect for dog walks. The owners make you and your dogs feel so welcome. Plenty of dog towels and throws are provided as well as a basketful of dog toys The welcome pack is generous and includes home made cake. We live in Norfolk and didn't travel far from home, but we enjoyed the change of scenery, doing different walks and enjoying the cafes and fish and chip shop nearby.

A wonderful dog welcoming week
Rose Cottage is a lovely cosy cottage, walking distance to the beach, pubs, fish and chip shop and cafes. Cafe Carmel was close while we were in Walcott, we will visit another time I’m sure. Parking on the drive is a little bit tight so we didn’t use the car during our stay, but we didn’t feel we missed out. A Waitrose delivery negated the need for a supermarket shop and the walk to Watsons meant we had an appetite for their delicious lunches. There was a lovely welcome pack for both humans and dogs including a basket piled high with an assortment of dog toys. The owner was very understanding when I reported ‘cloud formations’ in the lounge, nevertheless we did remove all the soft toys so that there would be something left for the next guest. We also set up a ‘field hospital’ in the conservatory to carry out repairs on the worst affected toys.

Just what we wanted
Perfect place for my partner and I to holiday with my best friend and her 2 beautiful Cocker Spaniels. As none dog owners, we were a little apprehensive booking a dog friendly cottage, but wanted to ensure that my friend and her dogs had the best place to relax. It exceeded our expectations and meant that humans and dogs felt completely at home in seconds. Our favorite spot was the little conservatory where we spent most of our time, especially in the rain!! Although it rained heavily and some water leaked down the wall here, a note left had pre-warned us this may happen so we didn't worry about it at all. AND the amazing welcome pack, including homemade chocolate cake, was the cherry on top! With regards to location, this was just what we wanted. Away from mainstream tourist spots but with pubs, cafe, fish n chips and fabulous beach all within easy walking distance. What more could humans and dogs need for a very relaxing few days? Thank you!

The lovely rose cottage
A lovely cottage near the beach, very clean and comfortable it had everything we needed for our break there. Great beach for walking and watching the birds. Local cafes and pubs for eating out. The dogs were cared for as well as the humans great goodies and toys for the dogs. It was also relaxing to hear the sea day and night.

Thank you we had a great stay, lots of memories made.

Perfect for me and the dogs!
I never fail to be astonished at just how good ERC cottages are! I had a lovely welcome from Sue and then Anne and Gary making me feel very welcome. The cottage was a really lovely home from home; its even better than the description. We've walked at Winterton, Sea Palling and Walcot beaches and also Bacton woods. Its been great being able to let the dogs have a good off lead run with everywhere being so dog friendly. We visited the Lighthouse Inn, Watsons and Hirst Farm Shop and cafe, all again very dog friendly, welcoming and helpful; its not easy going into places when you are alone but I soon found I was chatting to someone. Having a 10 month old standard schnauzer who tends to attract attention with his good looks (but then I would say that) does help. We really didn't want to come home. Can't wait to come again!!

Truly dog (and human) friendly holiday cottage
Great location - beach on the doorstep - fabulous for humans and dogs alike! Really secure outside area - hosepipe to shower off before entering the house. It felt like a home from home - everything was provided - there wasn't anything we felt was missing. The welcome pack was thoughtful and plentiful - dog treats & cake were especially enjoyed! Definitely a location to return to! So many extras provided to ensure dogs are well catered for - including stuff we didn't know we needed....but now we need!!
