We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this cottage. You truly cannot beat the location—it’s just a stone's throw from the beach and the dunes, which made for some incredible morning walks.It is 100% dog-friendly and our dog loved it as much as we did! The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and felt very welcoming from the moment we walked in. We were especially blown away by the amazing welcome goodies left for us, such a thoughtful and delicious surprise!The kitchen was impressively well-equipped with everything we needed to feel right at home. The beds were comfy and too. A huge thank you to the hosts for being so generous and making our stay so seamless. If you're looking for a relaxing, high-quality getaway in Winterton-on-Sea (especially if you have a dog), I can’t recommend this place enough. We will definitely be back!

Nice clean property, comfortable sofas and bed, lovely garden that’s secure for dogs. Fantastic beach behind the property that’s dog friendly.Ended up getting takeout or eating out in the evenings as the oven and hob are very dated, it takes the oven an hour to get up to temperature, all the symbols are worn off so you don’t know which setting to use (there is a instruction sheet on the wall but you still can’t tell which is which). There is no instructions for the microwave so wasn’t sure how to use that either. Kitchen could do with some basic things like food tongs, pizza cutter, a whisk, some roasting tins/trays, salad bowl, pasta bowls, would have made things a bit easier.But saying that, we had a very pleasant stay and really appreciated the lovely welcome pack that was left, thank you! 4 dishwasher tablets and 2 toilet rolls to start us off was also appreciated, maybe a couple of washing pods in case of accidents ( like spilled milkshake!) I had to go out and buy a whole box just for one top! Ample parking for at least 2 cars out the front and you can even leave the front door open if things get too hot in the kitchen as it’s all fenced off and gated to the front so dogs can’t escape. Winterton itself is a lovely place with a pub, a chippy and a shop that sells just about everything! We would definitely go back.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we are pleased you found many positive aspects to your stay. We hope you will return in the future. For the benefit of future guests, the oven and hob are both relatively new. The hob is ceramic and will be slower than gas if you have that at home. The oven reached temperature in less than 10 minutes when tested today. The symbols are worn due to cleaning however the dial picture and symbol explanation is available on the instructions. Instructions for the microwave are also in the kitchen. It is a small kitchen and we have provided as many essential crockery and cookware items as we can comfortably fit. Many of the items, you list, or similar, are in the kitchen, we will arrange for the items to be reviewed and selection improved space permitting.

Lovely stay at Beachside Cottage

Very nice and comfortable week long stay at the above, 3 adults and 2 border collies. Ideal location for what we wanted, within 1 minute walk through rear gate and amongst the dunes. Although the elder dog is 13.5 years old, soon as we mentioned 'walk' she manages to stand after a spinal injuries 2 years ago, but to see her face light up when she gets onto the sand, with the youngerone tormenting her slightly, they both really enjoyed there holiday as well. May well try to rebook for next year again.
