Relaxing short break

This was our second stay at delightful Dormy (the first having been to avoid fireworks). We love the great location, so close to the beach so not needing to necessarily use the car, but also not too far to travel for a day out. Cannot fault the accommodation - clean, well presented and equipped, comfortable, wonderful welcome pack, plenty of local information provided. Everything dogs and humans could possibly need to enjoy a chilled and relaxing holiday.

Fantastic stay!

It was the absolute best dog friendly, cleanest, most comfortable stay we’ve been to. Everything for dogs ( & Hoomans!) catered for. Great location with a very short walk to beach and secure gardens back and front. Lovely and quiet- just the waves to listen to. Thank you

A great place to stay…

A great place to stay with dogs welcome. Dormy had everything we needed. Comfortable, warm and very well equipped. The access road is currently a bit challenging but I guess that’s not down to the property owners. Ample safe parking at the property. Being so near to a fabulous beach was for us a major advantage. Wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Amazing Dormy!

We absolutely loved our stay at Dormy. The property is homely, cosy, light and airy. It was spotlessly clean, Dormy is really well equipped and beautifully furnished to a high standard. We received an amazing welcome pack for us and the dogs. Lovely rural views from the front of the property and can hear the sea from the back garden. A couple of minutes walk to the beach. Wonderful location and perfect for the dogs with a nice large, secure back garden.

Peaceful, relaxing dog friendly cottage

The cottage was super clean, warm and well equipped. The beds were really comfy and there was an amazing welcome hamper for us with treats for our dog too! The whole cottage was really geared towards our dog which made our whole stay so much more relaxing. And the walks on the beach were literally a 2 minute walk away - and we were often joined on our walks by seals bobbing along in the waves. I highly recommend Dormy!

So nice, we came twice

A return visit to the cleanest Holiday accommodation I have ever experienced. Located so near to the beach, and the large garden with high fences is a delight for the dogs. The entire property has been planned with dogs in mind relieving anxiety for their owners.

Another East Ruston Cottages Gold star property

Dormy is such a welcoming dog and human friendly cottage. Two large secure gardens, dog toys, towels, poo bags, home made dog biscuits, bowls and even leads for the dog, and best of all an endless, quiet, beautiful beach to enjoy 3 minutes walk away. For the humans everything is top quality, the extremely generous food and drink hamper, the bed linen, towels and the fixtures and fittings. We were all so sorry to leave such a wonderful property and will be back very soon.

Beach walks

Beautifully furnished and so comfortable. Everything you could possibly need for a holiday with your dog was provided. Lovely big safe garden and a two minute walk to the sandy beach.

A great place for dogs

A great place for a holiday with our dog , everything was catered for even treats for Dexter and a welcome pack for us which was amazing, the bungalow was clean , spacious and the gardens were brilliant and safe to let the dog out. If you can't walk very far you do need a car to get you to places , the little cafe around the corner didn't open when we were there which was a shame as it comes highly recommended

Wonderful

For the first time ever, we had the most relaxing and wonderful holiday at this beautiful cottage. The cleanliness, and location were superb. We have a very anxious cockerpoo, and I’ve never seen him so relaxed on a holiday. The basket of goodies are fantastic and the best we have ever received. We loved the cottage so much that we even booked for next year while we were here. Thank you dormy we can’t wait to see you next year.

Amazing place would highly recommend

This is my 3rd year using ERC for the last 2 years I have stayed at Dormy. The place is ideal for my golden retriever, secure gardens front and back. Very clean upon arrival, welcome pack is amazing and loved the chocolate cake this year! We had daily walks to the beach and chill time aswell in the house. Hot and cold tap outside for dog washing which was ideal as Teddy loved the sea and came back a mess every time. There is nothing more you can ask for here. Would highly recommend.

The perfect place!

Second time at Dormy. Such a bright, sunny and spacious place. The back garden is great too - totally enclosed and big grassy area so dogs are safe and secure to play and run around. Just a 2 min walk to the sandy track leading to the super beach. The best bit… loved being able to hear the waves from the back garden.

A Wonderful Find

We stayed at Dormy for a week and wished it could have been longer. This is definitely one of the nicest dog friendly holiday homes we have stayed in. The accommodation was so comfortable, including the beds, very nicely decorated and everything was to a high standard and worked! The large garden was a big plus for the dogs too! We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Excellent break

This property is beautifully maintained and so very comfortable. Everything is of a high quality best I have ever found in a holiday cottage. This was my second visit which says it all. It couldn’t be more dog friendly from the throws, toys, bowls, towels and treats everything has been thought of. Chasing the rabbits in the large secure garden kept my dog happy and busy. The very short walk to the beautiful sands makes this place just perfect.

Amazing place to stay ✨️

We had the most amazing couple of days in Dormy with our teenage children and our pooch. The place has absolutely everything you could wish for, a real home from home. Furnished to a high standard, equipped with all that you and your dog could need. Made our first holiday with our dog stress free. The welcome pack was amazingly generous and so lovely to eat local produce. Lots of beautiful walks straight from the property and also local amenities all super friendly. 5 star property, we can't wait to return.

Dormy

What a beautiful bungalow. Spotlessly clean with everything we and our dogs could need. 2 minutes walk to the beach. The beds were sooo comfortable, slept better than I had in ages! Well equipped kitchen and the most amazing welcome pack. Bread butter milk bacon sausages eggs biscuits chocolate and a bottle of Fizz! Oh and some homemade treats for the doggies as well.

Exactly what we were looking for!

A lot of holiday accommodation is marketed as being “dog friendly” when really they aren’t. This is not the case with East Ruston Cottages or Dormy they are welcomed which was exactly what we were looking for! Dormy was super clean and had everything we needed. It was very quiet and peaceful and I felt relaxed as soon as we arrived exactly what was needed to recharge the batteries. I would highly recommend!
