There was a wobbly toilet seat in the downstairs bathroom, also the walk in shower didnât have any handles in. It would be good for a shower mat to be provided. Otherwise perfect!

Ideal for location and accommodation for our family. Granny (who couldnât walk too far), mummy and daddy with two young children. We love the beach at Gorleston! We were so lucky with the weather too! As we cooked a few meals it would have been very helpful to have a freezer for storage. We would love to come back. Thank you.

Had childrenâs toys provided as well as a high chair and small table and chair. Location was brilliant and the neighbours were friendly and happy to advise on places to visit. Would highly recommend this for a holiday Jan Dixon
