The only downside to this lovely holiday home is if you happen to have dogs. The cottage is on very busy road so you have to drive to a location to walk your dogs. The home itself is superb but I do wish there had been a hoover to remove all the dog hairs. Cannot do the same job with just a broom. The fish and chips nearby delivered and was the best I've ever had.

This was our second stay at Moors Rest. We received a warm welcome from the owners, and a very nice welcome pack which included biscuits wine and cakes. The accommodation is lovely and comfortable and very well equiped It was perfect for us as we took our 2 dogs with us so the enclosed rear garden was a must. Very handy for some lovely beaches including Hunstanton and Wells which made for some lovely walks and places to visit along the East coast. We will definately be returning.
