What our customers say about their holidays

  “We have been to Sheringham on holiday many times, but this was our first stay at the Sidings. What a delight! We have all expressed a wish to return here. It was comfortable, well equipped for self catering, and we all became train spotters during the week with the novelty of having the trains literally at the end of the garden. We chose a bungalow as we were bringing a wheelchair this time, and it was very suitable for a chair and walker. The location is straightforward for accessing the town and the sea front, and once we’d worked out the dropped kerbs in town, we became quite expert, as this was our first go at wheelchair manoeuvring as well! We only really paid attention to the garage two doors down at the end of the week, but it has a very handy supermarket in there with all the things you run out of for convenience. The property is well maintained and comes with useful things like the trinket trays by the bed to drop rings and watches in overnight. Plenty of plates,mugs and cutlery too. All in all, we were very pleased with this accommodation and are looking to return soon.”

  This was our 2nd time at Coedfan and it will be our last.

  Our whole holiday was ruined by lack of swift action by the owners in removing a wasps nest that was by the main entrance steps and which I reported with a few hours of us arriving. Nothing was done about this until the Wednesday 6 days into our holiday, after repeatedly contacting the owners. Unable to sit outside at the rear patio where all the views are due to number of wasps and unable to open any rear windows. Sleep was disturbed due to wasps making nest in walls. Outside bins were full when we arrived on the Friday and were not emptied by owners until Tue. Had to get rid of rubbish myself! Hoover was full of dirt and dust when we went to use it and there was no dust pan or brush to clean any crumbs up etc. Bitterly disappointed with this holiday and attitude of owners who failed to ensure the property was ready to let out and failed to act swiftly to make sure our holiday wasn't ruined.....it most definitely was.

  We had a lovey stay at Saint Pancras Cottage.

  It was cosy and fire wood left for a fire. There was an Aga and a normal oven, 2 fridges, enough plates and cutlery and a good dishwasher. Our dog loved the garden as well as the kids. The snooker table was great fun although missing most of the pockets. The garden was beautiful but could do with a bit of weeding. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed and would love to go back. It is 'old style' but I did like it about the cottage, making it feel homely and more relaxed with the family and dog. There is nothing wrong with the cottage itself and well maintained. It was clean and beds very comfy. We also had loads to do in the local area. We only stayed for 4 nights but would have been happy to stay much longer. We loved it and would go back. Lovely host too, that was friendly and recommended some lovely places to eat and visit. Dunster Castle and Village is around the corner and so beautiful.

  The house looked really idealic from the pictures on the web site, so it was booked for xmas 2023.

  We arrived for our stay and the garden was very overgrown and paths very spillery. We entered the house and found it smaller than the pictures portrayed but cosy. We were informed on arrival that the wood burner in the dinning room could not be used due to a bees nest which was disappointing and has been there since the summer. Within a couple of days we started finding bees and wasps when the house was warm in the dinning room and on the table, in the kitchen and in the lounge, which i have to say was a little bit uncomfortable. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay but for the money we paid i think we should have been informed about the bees nest and also the few problems giving us an option to change our booking. We had an issue with the central heating which the key holder had to come and fix and made us aware that the owner new of the heating problem. If this property had a bit of an overall it would be lovely.
