What our customers say about their holidays

• Jobling Family - Verified booking

  Our mature family of five spent seven lovely days in Porch House in early September 2021, helped by the sunny weather. The house was immaculate on arrival and with a very generous welcome pack. Plenty of room for us all, the bedrooms were clean and nicely decorated, with comfortable beds, and spacious seating in the two reception rooms. It became our home from home immediately. We enjoyed the delightful walled garden and spent a lot of our time there, and we liked the Weber gas grill so much that we ordered one for delivery on our return home! Our elderly mother was in a wheelchair and it was a ten minute trip for us all to the centre of town and a few more minutes to the seafront. Mother took a little time getting used to the steps in the house and garden but managed well. We often went straight down Lower Lincoln Street to the prom in about seven minutes, where there is the delicious and wholesome Salad Bowl cafe, not to be missed; likewise the Northgate Indian restaurant and Chives restaurant in the centre. Supafry fish and chips were very good, but a shame about the sporadic and unreliable opening times. Don't forget the discount coupons in the residence; we forgot ours for Eric's Pizza/Fish n Chips and the Jolly Sailors, twice...! We met the owner Emma on arrival who was most courteous and obviously runs a quality property with attention to detail. We'll be back!

  Kittiwake Cottage isn’t as reflected on agents website.

  For a relatively high price property Kittiwake Cottage is tired throughout and this is not just end of season tired. The online pictures are not current, perhaps they are from when the cottage first came on the holiday market as the furnishings do not reflect their current condition. Too many issues have been left unmanaged including a leaking en suite shower, a rusted plug hole in the downstairs WC, a blocked shower tray and dirty tiling. The dishwasher trays are so badly rusted we couldn’t use it with fear of making us ill, just as well as it also leaks! A good kitchen let down by poor quality pots pans and appliances. The sofas and chairs are very uncomfortable and unclean. It’s unusual for a holiday let not have a guest book to give feedback on the stay so perhaps some of its issues haven’t been recorded which is why these haven’t been rectified. All in all it’s a potentially good property with double parking in a great location. It does though need freshening up throughout with some new furnishings, fix the issues and the odd top level touch such as bedroom TV’s to make it what it really should be!

  Absolutely perfect for what we needed!

  We were 2 families and between us had a 3 year old, 2 year old and 9 month old and we were really pleased with how clean the house was and the set up was ideal for us. We had really hot weather and it was close enough that we could pop home from the beach when it got too much for the children and wait until it cooled down a bit (we really appreciated the fans in the house especially at night). We’ve stayed in Hunstanton before but this cottage was the best we’ve stayed in for cleanliness, location and practicality. We walked to old Hunstanton and visited the sea life centre while we were there which we recommend . Being so close to a Tesco was great with children too! The only issue we had was that a bbq was listed on the site but we couldn’t find where it was. We assumed it was in the back shed which was locked. We would definitely stay again! Thank you

  I had a nice week away for Christmas location was fantastic.

  I was abit disappointed, with the property. As being christmas, i booked for 7 people. I had no baking trays in the property and only one shelf in the oven, so was not the best for cooking for 7 people .so had to buy some trays and a slow cooker so we could cook our dinner. Also on arrival there was tea cup stain on the side table in living room and the rug looked like it needs a good wash. the door rattled all night as it was very windy outside. Witch we fixed why we was there. Also as a company I was disappointed as my mum & dad also stay locally threw the same company and my sister and they both received welcome hamper I was disappointed as I had payed alot more money them.

  A lovely house right in the heart of Hunstanton.

  The open plan style of the place was perfect for our group of six, with a nice table for meals and comfy sofas for relaxing in the evening. However we found that certain elements were lacking, especially given the Covid situation: no hand soap, no washing up liquid, no rinse aid or salt for the dishwasher, no bin bigs and nothing like tin foil or kitchen essentials; there was not enough of most crockery items for a party of 6 (never mind a group of 8); and there was no house manual with wi-fi codes or anything like that. So while we had a lovely weekend with friends, the house was disappointing when compared to other better equipped places we have visited in the past.
