Everything worked well, the only slight drawback this time being that every time someone turned on a tap or flushed a toilet, there was a loud, high-pitched whistling sound going on for several seconds. Not a problem during the day, though. The car parking is tight but worked for our two normal-sized cars. It was nice to be within walking distance of the beach and village shops. In all it was a really good stay and we would recommend Flintstone Cottage.

Very clean and the location was perfect. Just a ten minute stroll to the beach. Had everything you needed for a short break and was dog friendly. Unlike some cottages you would never know that it takes dogs as it was so clean and fresh. Parking for two cars with great access. The only downside was the lack of garden chairs but to be honest they could have been in the shed we didnât look.

Lots to do for the kids and had we not wanted to visit a few places, you could easily dump the car and explore in Mundesley for a week. Really enjoyed it - will be back!!
