The property pictures were very deceiving as the property was much smaller than expected with dated furniture & decor. Mainly our biggest disappointment was the cleanliness of the chalet. It hadnât been cleaned properly after the last guests as there were visible hand marks on several of the windows, dusty surfaces, the bath & sink were still visibly dirty and the floor was filthy & stained. The bedding did not smell clean at all so much so that I had to strip all bedding and take it to a local laundrette. The owners were informed of our disgust at the state of the property & came to apologise ( it seems they are managing the cleaning themselves- I did advise they might need to get a professional in between guests!!! Compensation was offered but never followed through with. We also saw them on 2 other occasions during a walk & when the door lock stopped working. They were quick to respond & assist in fixing the door. My husband has cancer and is undergoing treatment so we were hoping for a stress ( and germ ) free stay ⦠however I ended up spending hours cleaning ( with products I had to purchase myself) just to ensure it was disinfected enough to be safe for him during our stay. Had it not been for our young sonâs excitement for the holiday we would have leftâ¦. The walls were paper thin & we were woken by the neighbours shouting at their kids when they rolled in around midnight! In a positive note the chalet is well situated within Hemsby. We had a lovely week when not in the accommodation.

Fine for the short stay but if we stayed longer would have been an issue. But other than that it was perfect.
