  South Way is an absolute dream! We were two families of adults and children aged 7-14. This property has the “WOW” factor when you arrive. The garden is beautiful and much fun for children and adults alike. With the nature around all day long, it’s idyllic. The property is well set out, spacious, decor is lovely (everyday I noticed something different) and I love there is a TV only in one room, where those who want TV can gather. Likewise, there is plenty of space for individual time. It is very well equipped, you’d be hard pressed not to find what you needed in the kitchen. The welcome pack of local goodies was a lovely touch and very nice. Positioning of property is ideal, across the road to train station which takes you to Sheringham, Cromer or further afield to Norwich. West Runton itself has everything you need, pub, shop, tea room etc. Beach (partly with lifeguards) again ideal, rock pools, shallow sea, lovely sand, cafe (reasonably priced) and toilets. About 10/15 min walk. There is absolutely nothing to not be happy with at South Way. Also, the staff at Original Cottages are extremely friendly and helpful if required.

  Rose cottage is in a unique location - it's like being in your own oasis and it is as the pictures. There is great space for spreading out if you have kids of different ages. The locally sourced products in the welcome pack were lovely, especially the wine. As a family of 6 we loved the space, and the garden is special for some things you won't want to go out and about as you have an oasis of calm to enjoy. Our first time visiting the area we would recommend it on location for the Shire horse sanctuary (free entrance), West Runton Beach, Cromer and Sheringham close by if you want more to do. We went to Norwich and Wells too. Lots to do more than enough for a week. Since arriving home we saw the local Rocky Bottoms on the TV programme of Norfolk and Suffolk too - it is close by. We enjoyed the fair that was visiting east runton playing fields. There are supermarkets not far - Morrisons and Lidl and the little local convenience store is worth a visit. If you are considering this area and want somewhere a little different then this is a great choice.

  Myself and my 5 friends absolutely loved Southway Cottage where we stayed last weekend, it is absolutely stunning, each room and space has been thoughtfully decorated and it was spotlessly clean. The grounds are gorgeous, we had a muntjac, pheasant and squirrels as resident wildlife. It was so peaceful so an excellent place to chill out if needed. It is in such a good location for getting out and visiting local areas. We went to Sheringham and on the steam train to Holt which was great fun. We had dinner in the Village Inn in West Runton on Saturday, the staff were lovely and the food was very good, so would also recommend a visit there. We would absolutely recommend staying at Southway and if we are lucky enough, would love to come back ourselves.

  Every party has their own unique requirements. We are a group of 5 ladies, entering the golden years and we have now stayed at South Way two years running. We will be back same time next year if the property is available. Multiple bedrooms and bathrooms with an amazing entertaining space is what hits all the right notes. The train station is a stones throw away and an hour in to Norwich city centre. West Runton is neatly situated for access to Cromer, Sheringham and Holt. We love visiting all these areas and there are still several establishments that we have not yet savoured so cannot wait for our next trip! Thank you for providing a beautiful home away from home for our celebrations.

  We had a superb holiday which was in part due to being lucky with the weather but the property was ideal and garden space also ideal. One thing we’d like to suggest is that more tea towels for drying up are provided as 2 for 8 people for one week isn’t enough. We were a party of 6 and would’ve liked another 2, plus a bigger teapot. The teapot was big enough for 2 only really. A first aid kit, whilst not needed may be helpful? And lastly, a second fridge for drinks would have been nice as our food filled the main fridge. Having suggested these extras, we had a wonderful holiday and lived the building and garden. Thank you.
