Autumn escape in Happisburgh

Edelweiss is ideally situated to explore the Norfolk coast. As you would expect from an East Ruston Cottage it is very dog friendly. The welcome pack was amazing and the owner is very friendly and helpful. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped for both humans and dogs.

Short break

Lovely comfortable very dog friendly cottage. Great for visiting the beach and other walks. Both dogs and humans were well looked after with a great welcome pack. The owner went out of her way to get a bigger crate for our dog. We had an enjoyable few days. Thank you

Excellent stay in Norfolk

Edelweiss was the perfect base for our short break in Norfolk. The location is great, whilst being rural and quiet, it is within easy reach of wonderful beaches, bigger resorts (like Great Yarmouth), and the Norfolk Broads. The property is clean, spacious and comfortable. We had a lovely stay with our two-year old little dog.

A very relaxing stay.

I wanted good value for my budget.✅️ I wanted somewhere clean, bright and comfortable. ✅️ I wanted easy access walks for my dogs.✅️ I wanted beautiful quiet beaches within walking distance✅️ I wanted a comfortable seat in the outside area for my evening glass of wine✅️ Bonus..... lovely friendly and helpful host. The lack of a large garden for the dogs wasn't a problem as we walked across the fields to the beaches every day. Edelweiss gave me all that I wanted. Thank you.x

Perfect place for us and our two dogs

We enjoyed a lovely week at Edelweiss - easy to get to nice local beaches for dog walks and other visitor attractions in the wider area. Accommodation was comfortable and just right for us and our two dogs. Great to have enclosed outdoor space and off road parking. Well looked after by Tracie who made us very welcome and checked we were comfortable.

Lovely cottage

We had a lovely stay in the cottage. Primary reason for going away was to avoid fireworks, which was completely fulfilled. We had some great walks on the beach where our dog could run and play off lead. Excellent place for anyone with dogs.

Perfect for short break with the dogs

Lovely little cottage with everything we needed. Practical outdoor space for a sit down and the dogs to get out but under close control. Offroad walks a few metres from front door. Good location for beaches and to explore Norfolk. On-line info pack spot on and very simple booking.

Great dog friendly getaway

We have just returned from a stay at Edelweiss and can't fault it. The cottage was lovely, clean, well equipped and 100% dog friendly. Perfectly located to visit all the local beaches, woods, waterways, pubs and shops. Our hosts Tracy and Neil provided everything for a home away from home and were friendly and on hand if we needed anything. Thank you from us and our crazy whippets.

Lovely welcoming mini break

We had a lovely stay in this pretty and well equipped dog-friendly property. The owner was very friendly and helpful. We managed to time our arrival with Storm Amy blowing in, and were delighted that she had ensured the accommodation was toasty warm. Being Norfolk, the sun magically managed to put in an appearance each day. The stunning sandy beach was within walking distance, as was Happisburgh’s iconic lighthouse.

Lovely place and lovely owner

I had a lovely time at Edelweiss. Tracie was very helpful and left some wonderful gifts for my furbabies and me! The beaches are lovely and Bacton Wood was a great place to take the dogs for a walk in the shade. Thank you

Lovely few days away

Our first visit to Happisburgh. Located in a quiet and ideal location for lovely beach walks. We walked miles every day on almost deserted sandy dog friendly beaches. The accommodation was lovely and perfect for doggy holidays. The bed was really comfortable and we both slept well. Our only thought was that the bathroom would benefit from modernising as it looked tired and dated.
